MSG


[Da...]

Recommended Posts

Do you have reactions to it?

What are they?

How long do they typically take to go away?

 

 

Long story short, ate Thai food Saturday.  Still seeing a flare up in sxs so not sure how long this will will last.

My reactions were bloating and some irritation in my lungs.  If I go out to eat at a Chinese restaurant, I specify no MSG.

I always react in some way to MSG. But more often than not it was worth the treat. This happened well before I ever knew what a benzo was. I called it a stomach ache. And feeling a bit odd. But oh so worth it. Yum! Saturday night was usually when I indulged if I did. But yum! Love Chinese pork dumplings. Still do so benefit over risk. I'll take my chances to enjoy rather than not to enjoy the odd special yummy. I think we have the right to enjoy what we often were accustomed to now and again without a major freakout. How about oh crap I shouldn't have had that last night? But I did and I'll be just fine because from experience...this happened eons ago. I will live. But yum. And argh. All in the same breath assuming you can still breathe. B

I was hoping to wake up this morning and feel better but of course I don't. I feel like it cut .25mg or something. But I haven't obviously.

 

 

I'm sick of feeling sick. Just when I think I've got a handle on things I get slapped in the face!!

It might not have anything to do with the MSG, it could just be a wave and nothing more, it will pass. You just have to wait it out. Hang in  there Dad
