A thread about constipation
OK I may as well come right out with it...I suffer from constipation. Have always been that way...so does my mum and my sister. Anyway the gastro doc talked me into a new medication...one tablet twice a day. Just picked it up from the pharmacy...cost to me for 1 months supply $18 because we have meds insurance. Cost of 1 months supply without meds insurance...almost $300!!!!
My old meds have just come off prescription...I can now buy a month's supply from Costco for $16. How can you justify spending $300 per month to take a s***?:curse: |

Don't thank me now :D |

Make some lentil soup, I know you love cooking :p Fry some chopped onions till soft and beginning to colour, add green lentils + chicken stock; simmer till tender. In a frying pan, fry lots of minced garlic in butter until soft but not brown, add some cumin and fry for a further 30 seconds. Add this to the soup. Now add some lemon juice and lots of chopped fresh coriander (cilantro). Adjust seasoning (including some cayenne pepper to give it a little 'bite'). :) |
