Hey everyone,
I know diarrhoea have been discussed to great lengths here but I thought I’d ask again because my husband’s pattern seem very strange. The diarrhoea only comes at night, severe and it’s interrupting his sleep till the point they have to now temporarily stop oral chemo (capecitabine) so that his bowels can recover.
He’s tried taking Imodium, Buscopan and Mebeverine. It helps with pain and reduced frequency but when night falls, it doesn’t work.
Our nurse told us not to take any probiotics when we suggested to to her. Our oncologist said it doesn’t help cause chemo is going to kill it anyway.
Any other tips? Thanks so much!
