Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Fingers crossed for something prilosec-vulnerable. I'm just freaked out by a fever (100), because I haven't had one in so very very long, even when I was definitely sick--appendicitis 98.6 degrees, hepatitis 98.6 degrees. Strange midnight stomachache? 100 degrees? Why? This is silly.

Batman resubmitted, Jesse.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

For years, when I laid down at night, I had terrible stomach cramps and nausea. I had all kinds of tests and was told it was all in my head. Then chemo escalated it to the point that I was washing down Tums with Maalox. My oncologist prescribed Prilosec, and all those symptoms have been gone since then. It's the good side of cancer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I posted right away this time, to be on the safe side, ita.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Peanut butter mushroom soup.

Two nasty things that go together nastily. Also, ew.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But do ulcers or indigestion give you a fever?

They can create tears that can lead to small infections, so I'd say it's entirely possible. Though I understand you being concerned since you rarely run temperatures.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Peanut butter mushroom soup.
I've never heard of such a thing. Huh. Off to google--thanks!

Total comfort food. It's very rich.

Google will probably find you fancier versions, but in my family it's just a can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup prepared according to the instructions on the can, but with a few big spoonfuls of super-chunk peanut butter dissolved in while it is heating. Stir a lot, otherwise the peanut butter can scorch in contact with the pot.

eta: Sorry, Zenkitty.

Peanut Butter and Mushroom soup seems wrong. I like mushrooms a lot, but I never forget I am eating fungus.

I an pro-mushroom. I don't think of them in the same realm as toe rot. Peanuts and mushrooms I don't see the appeal.

Ulcers are usually caused by bacterial infections...I think that was the latest conclusion. It's not the acid, it's bacteria. I think.
