Miralax did wonders, and is supposedly non damaging to the digestive tract....

The trick is to start taking it before the treatment, since it's gentle and slow acting...

Also, I don't think it is actually the Dacogen that causes constipation, rather the anti nausea injectible that they give along side of Dacogen... I forgot what it's called...

They also gave me anti nausea pills, but I didn't take one... (the pill has an R on onside, and 154 on the other)
