I'm so sleepy, but I can't have coffee and I'm afraid that this morning even some green tea might trigger another cardiac episode :-/

I'm off coffee and tea again and it's not easy.

@cherokeepatti No kidding! At least drinking tea I know it's all natural. I have no idea what was in the vanilla creamer I'd put in my coffee, lol

@Zaphod42 it's the salicylates in foods that is bothering me. They turn into acid and my body is having a hard time dealing with it. I don't know if every one of them is harming me or what. I've known for a long time I can't take aspirin (or other painkillers that doctors suggest) or wine because it inflames my joints and stomach lining. I believe a lot of different fruits and veggies are doing it to...have avoided most chemicals in foods the best I can but it's hard to eliminate all of them.
