The injection that does not lose anything as you do not put on your part, it is true that you throw 6 months with daily diarrhea, then the body is overcome, but it takes a mogollon to be overwhelmed.If you complain about diarrhea, the doctor withdraws.But I said that you are, if it is good for the pancreas I endure !!
