I found out that MSG as well as Corn Syrup are direct causes of flares in many people with Fibromyalgia and that is why we are told to avoid most store bought drinks. And with me found out they were causing full body tremors that would last up to 4 minutes so bad they thought that I was having Grand Maul seizures

Caffeine is a big one for me - along with wine and really any alcohol - just one glass and it's game over the next day .

Well, after reading alot of the foods that affect y'all guess I'm doing pretty good cuz the majority of everything listed are things I have to avoid or be very careful with. I can't eat greasy foods and tha was hard cuz I grew up in Texas & we fried everything! Can't eat pancakes and syrup and I've tried different kinds.
Oh and MSG, OMG, awful stuff. Have avoided it for years cuz of my migraines. Etc, etc...
Don't y'all just love all the little "gifts" Fibro gives us? NOT!! lol
