I agree with Mrs. D about the MSG or additives. Your mention of pork fried rice made me think the same thing.
You could ask your doctor about this or see and allergy/asthma specialist who would be more familiar with these issues. If you do have an allergy, symptoms can worsen with ongoing exposure. It is always reasonable to make sure something else isn't going on medically before attributing symptoms to CRPS.

I thought of the protein thing too. I didn't know these things can pop up like that. My hubby became allergic to shellfish to years ago. The cause for him was iodine. He had a bad case of kidney stones and they did a test with iodine. Then he ate shrimp a few weeks later and boom he breaks out everywhere. Had to tell him it was because of that test. He was not happy as he loves seafood! Luckily though he can eat a few pieces now without any reaction. He's much happier. Lol
