Just wanted to introduce myself and say that I have joined the masses that have thhis "wonderful" NOT! condition. I've been on Kapidex for almost three months right before having gall bladder surgery and for all the years that I have suffered and never knew what was goiing on. Ah...hello Jon, get a clue!

Doctor wants me on all these dark leafy greens to increase fiber but just told I have a blood clot in my leg and not to increase darky leafy greens. But that's the story of my life, always conflicting sides and never a winner. So trying to increase fiber in another way which constipates me...like I said, just can't win for anything, but am a figther and not a victim and not a good speller either so please forgive. With out spell check I'm lost! But look forward to joing the discussions and learning and meeting new people. Cheers, Jon...a.k.a. westwind
