Wow, that is really interesting. For what it's worth, I don't think you're nuts at all. I love the way you have documented this. You seem like a person I would like to know.

I see from your previous posts that you know about hypo- and hyperkalemic periodic paralysis. Even those, though, are made worse by high-carb, greasy meals, and not better.

Only one thought here: you say eating these foods, and other salty foods, at home doesn't have the same effect. I think that restaurant foods are WAY saltier than anything you'd make at home even if you were trying to cook with a lot of salt. Greasier, too. They say that we couldn't cook that "unhealthy" if we tried.

I wish you the best of luck in figuring this out. What an incredible mystery. Please let us know if you get any new clues!
