I continue to learn about my condition and determine the "triggers" that cause me to flare and turn into a ball of fire.

Quercetin with bromelain appears to be one of the most helpful supplements as it's a natural antihistamine. I'm also taking palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) with luteolin for its mast cell stabilization properties.

Overall, I'm feeling much better and am doing a decent job of keeping the flares to a minimum. It's a learning process, though, as you have to figure out your triggers, and they're not always consistent. For example, you can make a recipe one day that doesn't affect you, but the next time, it does. The freshness of the meat comes into play, and that can obviously a big unknown.

I so wish MrsD were still around. I think of her often and hope she's doing ok.
