Hi Helen, I got it! I even bookmarked it, very good site to use regularly! The way I did it myself was to just erase everything after the planetx.com/ to get it back to the home page, LOL I have been off the prilosec a week now. Still having the problem. So am now thinking it might have either just been triggered by priolsec or a coincidence :( So far it's not worth seeing doc about. But I am having some slight abdominal pain and a very low fever along with it. No bleeding, no mucous or cramping. Sigh... Gina
