If I click on 1 item to add to cart at my site; click check out…which takes me to PayPal site; if I decide to go back to my site (prior to checking out) by hitting my browser back button…I see that an additional item has been added to the cart. My client is unhappy with this “glitch”. Thanks

It’s not a glitch… it’s a standard browser feature to repeat the last action when you refresh or go back. Now the last action you performed was a HTTP POST (add to cart button) so it repeats that. It will give you a warning when you do this though. You will have to click “yes” to that.
