That changed a couple months ago as I found I could no longer eat carbs and sugar. It was exacerbating my PN in a bad way.
Why? Who knows?? But sugar seems to be a big aggravator of PN for a lot of people not just diabetics. Processed sugar is toxic.

I find that sugar is a big flare for myself, as is any kind of fried foods and meat (I can usually get by with Tuna without a flare). And I do agree, it sometimes has a mind of its own. I have a few "secret weapons" that I use when I have a really bad flare, but here lately nothing really works. Stress is another big instigator I suppose. Of course, its hard not to be stressed when dealing with something like this.
