Marlene, I was told by my gastro Doc to eat yogurt everyday. Don't matter the brand or flavor or type. Then he suggested a pro-biotic called Florastor. I didn't take well to the probiotic(bloated me) but I eat yogurt everyday and it does make a difference digestion wise. It restored regularity for me (I think) unless coincidently it resolved itself on its own but I don't think so. I might try a different probiotic as I heard the yeast containing probiotics can make matters worse for some but then again I only tried it once so I might try florastor again just for good measure. Any type of chemo can mess with your gut flora so I was told. I should add that I only visited the gastro guy once for a colonoscopy..He didn't find anything so recommended the yogurt & probiotics.
