Thanks!

As far as I know, I don't have gluten sensitivity, but it may be something that could make a difference.

Whenever I have anything made with pancake batter, I feel bloated and uncomfortable. I understand that gluten-sensitive people have much more ... adverse ... reactions.

Funny, though. I can usually eat most cookies, no problem. There's something about pancake batter that does it.

There’s a spectrum of insensitivity, all the way from “I’ll die” (celiac), to “I get migraines/etc.” (classically insensitive), to “if I have a lot I feel real bad” (perhaps more folks than they realize).

Pancake batter is characterized by lots of flour and baking soda, if it’s not one it’s likely the other.
