Sillygirlfun, thanks for your response. Super helpful! I have ADD and was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia but noticed my d-amphetamine doesn’t do the job anymore. I’m scared because I’m scheduled to go back to work next week (after a 2 month flare) and my brain/alertness is not there anymore which my job requires. I’m changing my rating habits and using post it notes & to do lists for everything. I guess we’ll just have to see how it goes.

No sugar can be in it as it will feed the bad bacteria. Foods to stay away from are fatty foods, sugary foods,
