I would try and compartmentalize your responses to this problem.
It is very new for you still.
One thing I do is only focus on "problems" a certain amount of time a day....and then close that door, and get on with your life.
Decide to avoid MSG and food triggers, for now, but don't dwell too much. Dwelling on symptoms increases STRESS responses, increases insulin secretion, and cortisol, and this seems to make pain worse. Also thinking about pain too much fixates the pathways to the brain, and it is thought to be a negative thing leading to chronic pain later. It is best to distract yourself as much as possible.
