In reply to I choked on some mineral oil, posted by Deneb on March 25, 2009, at 16:56:49
Years ago, I thought I read that mineral oil isn't great for us.
Deneb, what about a natural product called psillium (spelling?) It's straight fibre, as far as I know & is sold in the drugstores - brand name "Metamucil". It might provide, in a natural manner, the roughage needed to move things along.
My other thought is drinking enough water & liquids. (I should not talk about water as I am horrible at drinking it, even though I think it's VERY important & sort of want to - the aversion-to-water part of me kicks in & digs its heels in!

Sorry - I don't know the answer to your question. Why not call that Ontario Medical Hotline or whatever its called.
