Obstuctions: if you have not yet passed the bottle cap, 3 weeks after ingestion, it may be a problem. There are several places in the intestinal tract where a stiff plastic object might not be able to pass, and might cause an obstruction. If you are having BM's and gas now that is fine, but you might want to see your Dr for further examination. Bowel obstruction may cut off the blood supply to your intestine.
