How Much Has Food Sensitivities Entered Into Your Condition?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

My new doctor prescribed a food sensitivity test. He said that eating foods that my body has a reactionary response to could cause headaches and pain all over. I just got the results back a few days ago. So now I have something specific to do to help. I have a lot of hope. Wonder if you all have tried this, and to what degree did it help your symptoms?

My neighbor does this. She's not been dx with fibro, but, in my opinion/experience, she has it. She has a lot of the symptoms. Her insurance helped to rule out MS, but, that was about all.

Gluten-free?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Do y’all know anything about being gluten-free, to help fibro inflammation? And if so, any good foods?

A MyFibroTeam Member

So many gluten-free foods in supermarkets and available online. The safest way is to shop the outside of the supermarket as the fruit and vegetable aisles have so many anti inflammatory foods.
