I have always been pretty irregular when it came to BM, and the tamox did not help. Honestly they only thing that has helped me is Noosa yogurt. It has probiotics, it is gluten free, and hormone free, and delish!

I had problems with constipation, my Dr's had me use Miralax 2-3 days prior to chemo with an average of 4-5 days per week. You HAVE to drink LOTS of fluids, perferably water, but any liquid will do (not milk or ice cream as it is known to cause constipation). Also eating green veggies is very helpful. Good Luck!

Are you taking a daily probiotic? If not - add to your list.

I too am on tamoxifen....and was having cramping and lower back pain , more on the right side...with frequent urinatiion..... Went to ER because the pain was so severe....diagnosed with a kidney infection , was given IV antibiotics and fluids and sent home with Oral antibiotics....feeling much better now....never had one....so of course I am thinking maybe SE of Tamoxifen? Who knows....Started [[treatment:Tamoxifen:540f562a[[phone:8608758280000445]] 3:]] mos ago.

Thank you ladies for all the suggestions. I need to start my probiotic again.. Any suggestions on the best one. I was taking Align..
