In the long term the remedy is going to have to be no more chineses ever
For the moment, mr b3th's big baggy sweatpants and a comfy chair are as good as it gets.

That's lame :(
chineses are one of the best of all the takeaways. Why can't you tolerate MSG?

I don't know
but it's happened enough and with such regularity and speed, that I know it must be the food that's causing the problem. Apparently a lot of people have this reaction to MSG. Over the last year or so I've also become a bit funny with lactose.

My dad's a coeliac, so it could be worse. At least I can eat bread. Lovely, lovely, yummy bread...

Is MSG not just generally a bit bad for you anyway?
Other than the fact that it makes things mega-tasty.

probably
but it's the tasty tasty part that usually wins out.

No more, though. I have to admit defeat.

Last I heard
Was that MSG is a neurotoxin. So, if you think about it, your immune system is doing the right thing by reacting to it.

I might be wrong though.

Probably not though.
