    Thank you Kate. I have myopathic EDS and POTS. I went to an allergist who told me, that MCAS and CFS don't exist. I feel completely left alone. I will try that histamine diet. All the best 💜 Manu

      I have started a histamine blocker (DAO supplement) as I had gotten down to being able to eat very few things...seems to be working so far...

    Thank you for this video Kate! 🤗🤗 I've been living with an unusual condition for about 10 years and am hoping to improve my pain and fatigue levels by trying a different eating process.
    Thanks for your inspiration. Wishing you well with your health management.

    Thank you so much for this! It was like I was listening to someone talk about me. I started developing symptoms slowly, over years, but in Feb/Mar of 2022, they got worse. I just felt ~not well~ all the time. I had been suffering for a year from interstitial cystitis, and my doctor suggested that I might have MCAS, putting me on montelukast. My PCP put me on famotidine and cromolyn in addition, and I went on the low histamine diet. I started feeling better in just a week! Alcohol really makes feel unwell, and I get a butterfly-shaped rash on my face, so I haven't had a drink in nearly a year. I miss my occasional margarita or Sidecar! I, too, really enjoy food, and I have a MASSIVE sweet tooth - I think that's the thing I struggle with the most. Of all my conditions, and all the meds and treatments and such, MCAS is the one that has really pushed me into the deepest depression. I'm going to check out your blog, and perhaps your forum. It really helps to hear from someone else exactly how I feel about this blasted syndrome! ❤

      @@Truerealism747 Studies are showing that many folks with EDS also have Autism Spectrum Disorder and/or ADHD. I myself have Inattentive ADHD, and other members of my family have ASD. I recommend trying to find a specialist who can determine if you have EDS, because that will open up a whole world of treatment options. :)
