He's seen a lot of changes in Boquete and also in the expat population

Can you send me a PM (private message) with a phone number, and I will call to help diagnose the problem. We've received several comments thanking us for posting the presentation materials, so it is reasonable to say that there is nothing wrong with the PDF itself, which leaves only a couple of options. We are willing to help, but it would be best to handle via telephone.

To send us a PM, click on @Admin_01 and then click on the message icon (it looks like an envelope).

I make the same request of you that I made of MBA2wikde: send a PM with a phone number and we will help diagnose the problem.

Before posting these kinds of documents they are fully tested using different browsers and different machines, etc. Obviously something is broken, but we have no way of knowing without diagnosing it.

VPanama's issued has now been resolved.

Several people came up to me after the talk very concerned about the possible bad effects of the proton pump inhibitor class of drugs (omeprazole (Prilosec, Losec), dexlansoprazole (Dexilant), esomeprazole (Nexium), lansoprazole (Prevacid), pantoprazole (Protonix), rabeprazole (Aciphex)). At the time the only alternatives I could think of were ranitidine and cimetidine. However, in catching up with my reading I see that Life Extension magazine has recently published an article with details about a couple of unconventional therapies which might help. The article is here. You must take it with a little grain of salt, of course, as Life Extension Foundation sells a product containing these ingredients.
