Hi Christine,

I'm beginning to become very suspicious of those peaches and other fruit in your diet. Something is continuing to cause problems for you. Be aware that most canned fruit is canned with the addition of other juices/syrup, and frozen peaches usually contain preseratives and/or corn syrup that prevent me from eating them.

Tex

[TendrTummy]

Crap, wasn't aware of that Tex.. I'll have a look at the label next time I'm at the grocery store (out of them right now.. )

right now, I'm suffering from OTHER problems - have a horrible cold/sinus infection type junk going on and sore throat along with the mouth sore being huge..
