[SunRescue] Hi, I'm Steve, and I have a problem. . .

[Peter L. Wargo]

I *had* to give up caffeine years ago due to a stomach problem.  This
after being a late-night DJ and drinking a couple of POTS a night.  This
is AFTER I gave up smoking as well...

The plus is that I no longer have up/down cycles in my day.

The negative is that I cannot have chocolate either, as I get massive
cramps from it.

I have found that I can take Yerba Mate, which does have caffeine, but
it seems to be a less problematic version of it.

-Pete
