Here's a new one for me:  I have a client who gets *rid* of plugs by
sleeping on her stomach.  Her feeling is that she mashes the stuff so it
can get out.  She's done it successfully several times now - too often for
me to consider it chance.  Whatever works!  (But she's decided to start
lecithin too.  Whew!)
