Never heard that about probiotics either, Chirley. I take a capsule once or twice a week because I read somewhere that MDS sufferers need to do that. I haven't experienced any gut problems from doing this.

I just found this on the web, which indicates that probiotics may be beneficial for those on chemo: http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials...ersion=Patient
