Hissssstamine and apology

learnteachSo, anyway, here I am, and I'm wondering what's going on.
I've been more disorganized and distractable recently (and if I can notice that, it's a big up in the ADD quotient). Note that since Christmas my LJ entries are all idea lists? Hmm. Also, I've been itchy lately--not metaphorically, physically, and areas of skin turning red and bumpy.
I've past problems/experience with fungus/candida stuff, and it didn't seem like that but that's tricky, so I began on K's advice to eat more yogurt and also was taking some grapefruit oil. No change. Well, my feet look a little better, but no change on the itchyness.
Hmm.
So, someone else suggested scabies, but it's not that. Laundry detergent/shampoo allergies have been suspected, and I haven't changed those that much. My living situation has changed, but I doubt it's that (it hasn't changed THAT much).
So, next best guess, a food allergy.
Well, I'm eating a LOT of salsa that has peppers in it...that could be it. But I've always made an eaten salsa, so I kinda doubt it. The other change? Peanut butter. I went on a PB&J binge of MAJOR porportions.
Drats. Well, if that's it, I'm taking an herbal antihistamine (and I woke up with a clear nose for the first time in 3 weeks) and also starting a bowel cleanse (psyillium x3/day) and stopped eating nuts, but an oil takes about (I have no idea how long) to work its way out of the digestive system, and the histamine will probably take another week to fade out of the system.
Dang.
Wow, there are four police cars, one firetruck, and two paramedic vehicles parked outside my house. I hope it's not one of the kids that play on this street!

Likely Peanut Butter...
