Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that chemo always has some side effects. You ac take an antibiotics for around 3-5 days and continue taking a probiotics for 15-20 days. If it doesn't help then kindly consult your treating physician.

Hopefully this information will guide you properly.

Kind Regards
