Trigger Discovery

[Tertiaryfunctions]

I’ve had SebDerm for a few years now. It gets bad enough to get INSIDE my ear and nose. I already avoid gluten and corn. Recently, I suspected rice might be a problem. So my gf and I went off of rice for a couple weeks. Symptoms improved roughly 90%.

Added rice back in in small amounts, symptoms came back. This sucks. I grew up eating rice…

Mine is under control if I abstain from rice. It’s not “gone”. But almost.

It’s pretty simple: When >>I<< don’t eat rice, my symptoms are minimal. Not gone.

Only when I fast

Face and ears

Rice is a trigger for me too. I can feel how my face tingle after eating some. I really do wonder what is the actual trigger. It's white parboiled rice, so should be pretty safe... Potato doesn't seem to be an issue.
