Great that you are improving!

Diet Coke has aspartame in it...which contains aspartic acid.
This is a neurostimulant amino acid which activates the NMDA receptors like glutamate does.

People with pain issues should also avoid MSG which is in many processed foods, soups gravies and restaurant food.
Monosodium glutamate also would activate NMDA receptors..
This is a well known trigger for me, for example.
