Geez Don,
I feel like an idiot. I just read this complete post for the first time. I never opened it before because I thought it was just one of your silly music gig prank post, and I've been real busy trying to figure out how to get off this Prilosec that I've been taking since it was invented.

There are claims that it causes joint pain and it seems since I started taking it years ago I blamed all of my joint pain on arthritis. MSM chondroitin and Glucosamine has kept me going.

My neighbor's been very sick with a zillion problems. It all happened last year with having all of his teeth pulled with gum disease. Anyway he started last week taking "Mastic Gum" and swears his heartburn has disappeared completely. He gave me a few to take and in 24 hours I feel better. So I'm ordering a 30 day supply.

Don, I'm so sorry that I missed this post. Man I pray the best for you Susan and the boys and their families. I will keep up with this post now. I love you and please give Susan my best.
