SH> I'm betting ulcers.

Here's hoping that's what it is and not something more serious.

SH> I don't take NSAIDs at all.  However I take martini's for arthritis

I've mentioned here before that I sometimes mess with the classic

or two of Aperol, Triple Sec, Creme de Cassis and Galliano. All of
these additions turned out to make for a very tasty drink. But I'm
not alone; all of these are named cocktails. And I've found more in
recent months. Here's a couple of them:
