Ger, i'm american and haven't been able to find any helpful american sites here. in fact, everytime i've looked up 'parcopresis' on the internet, this is the only helpful site i've found. i think the lack of information out there is due to the root of the problem... embarrassment. i certainly haven't confided this problem of mine to anyone, so it stands to reason very few are talking about it anywhere. at least we have this site!
