Oh, Vickie!!!! I'll have to go into therapy for sure! I'm like a nut about peanut butter! I don't eat it all the time, but when I get a craving, I'm hard to get off track til I find my fix! I stopped for a short time when I lived in Dallas and was battling so many allergies.
Yuke.....time to grow up.....I was really hoping to be able to wait a few more years! Maybe I'll do it like steroids and go off slowly!
Hey, Vickie, will you let us know when you decide about the Tykerb/Ixempra? I'm prayin' for ya. Luv, ma
