I think the peanutbutter was making everything else much worse. The fact that the day I spent doubled over in pain and puking started with bolting my breakfast and then since I was too sick for the stuff the next day I wasn't sick, and then ate peanutbutter and was increasingly ill for a few more days until I had leftover pumpkin pie, and then ate breakfast out, and wasn't sick, and haven't eaten the stuff since and have been increasingly fine... even Metformin, which was a problem long before the peanutbutter, isn't making me have stomach cramps.
And I took two Ibuprophen when I put up that post and have had no negative gastric stuff, so I think whatever was hurt is healing. I have taken Aspirin at bedtime every night which was never a problem, but not anything during the day. Today I have to, I hurt too much otherwise. I think it was walking on ice all last week, over-stressed my joints keeping my weight straight over them so I didn't fall.

Sounds like you have an allergy for sure !
Any other symptoms ?
Rash, flushing, itching ?

Mom would like 2 maples please! are they green or red?

and any you want to get rid of, bring here and we can distribute/sell for you.

Still waiting on Raspberry plants from the Imp-ster

They are red....really nice.
Not the low spreading type, but I suppose one could prune/train them to be a low spreader.
I will bring you a couple/3 maples...no curly willows ?
I am making pancakes, GF usually turn out like rubbery frisbees LOL but good all the same.

Then I can sit & count all these seeds !

bring anything you need to get rid of and we will distribute for ya. but mom wants a couple of the maples to bonsai like the one in front.

Not with peanuts, no. To sunflower seeds/stems/leaves, yes. I suspect the brand of "peanut butter" I've been eating has been adulterated with sunflower butter or rather the second pressing of sunflower oil, which is high in sunflower protien. That also happened the last time there was a peanut shortage. I'm not into messing around to find out, though. I may see if I can get an allergist appointment later this year.

Really cute photo!!! Pica is being so respectful - but you can tell she really, really wants some

Thank you...Pica has some Terrier in there somewhere and she really-really has a hard time sometimes "truly" behaving. She knew I was watching or she would have been in there. She is very smart...but does not like to back down from a confrontation....even when it is with the DH and they are both going at one another - he pulls her whiskers...she bites his arm. DH has taught her all kinds of bad manners. She is the BEST DOG IN THE WORLD....when she is tired...and a good dog when she has a ball in her mouth. LOL.

Trying hard to get moving/keep moving today: spent way too much of yesterday lifting more than I should and my hips are killing me.

On the other hand, I haven't done a full-dose NSAID day since I stopped eating peanutbutter for breakfast and had my GI problems vanish, so here goes!

So do you think the GI problems were the Peanut Butter, or the NSAIDs ?
NSAIDs are notorious for causing GI problems.
I have been having horrible GI issues last week or so & no idea what it is....I am sick & tired of being sick & tired ! 
Is it tomatoes ?
Cheese ?    
Every week it seems a new food is causing the pain & bloating...sometimes within minutes of eating.
Sometimes I wonder (20-50 X a day) if a persona can have Celiac Disease AND Chrones or UC or ???
maybe just IBS ?
More likely Irritable Body Syndrom 

yes you can.... and no such thing as IBS... bullpuckey diagnosis for when they dont really care or are not interested in a true diagnosis. bowels dont just decide to be irritated, there has to be a cause. JMO

He's supposed to be a Cuckoo Marans. I got 4 of them as day-old chicks and the other three are pullets. None of them has feathered legs...

I'd bet you're absolutely right about the sunflower butter / oil. Really not worth trying to find out - food allergies stink.

You could use a rake or something to extend your reach. I also like the hook end of my pole pruner.

There is a gene for Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It runs in my family. I have had much less trouble since I started eating more fruits vegetables and whole grains.
