Lynnet,
Can you tell me what vegetables and fruits seem to have a big
effect on your fibromyalgia? I am aware of spinach, beets and Swiss
chard having high oxalate. I suspect that oxalate is giving me some
problems because of some symptoms that have reoccurred in the past 10
years or so to different degrees. The lists that I find of high vs.
low oxalate foods are not always consistent. From your experience,
what affects your fibromyalgia?
