My mistake I did not post anonymous, I changed my mind at the last minute for the reasons I posted. The original anonymous is on Nov. 9th.
I am on other support gp. (asthma) and I agree that those trying to sell can be a real pain in the butt. But I have never suggested anyone buy any product or invest in any scheme. But why not ask me, instead of suggesting I am not genuine and the group needs to investigate me to support her claim that I am not what I appear to be. It is also people like Mary who can ruin a group. I have adhesions just like everyone else here I just want to be able to get information and share my experiences of what works and what doesn't. Looks like that won't be happening.
