Hi . It's me again , yet another of your posts has dropped down the listings due to the sheer number of posts on this group. I would rephrase your posts along the lines of " Anyone with Cramping pains after taking stool softeners?"
I'm also tagging the Champ of this group court to come along and say hello. We always do our best to make sure posts are answered as speedily as possible, we're sorry you managed to drop through the net.
