Perfect Heather. I can't wait to start collecting data! I'll keep this group updated with progress.

As for your participation, make note of the things that aren't part of your medical treatment but that you've noticed have an impact. Example: I had crazy swelling in my hands for a couple days and my husband brought me yellow curry for dinner. The swelling in my hands decreased very quickly after eating and hasn't returned to that level of inflammation again as of this post. My guess is that it was the turmeric in the curry. But I don't know and I don't take herbs as supplements without full due diligence which I haven't done and probably won't because herbs don't interest me enough to pursue it. I may choose yellow curry off the menu more frequently though. If you have any of these kinds of self observations, please consider them important enough to note since we'll be looking for connections that could lead to a better life for us and our comrades.
