Yep - I never have an "attack" while active.

I did NOT get hese attacks UNTIL I started low-carbing for fat loss. It's like it made me carb-intolerant at times.
Caffeine is also heavily involved in my attacks. Makes me have bad reactions to carbs. Or if I drink a diet coke on an empty stomach, I will almost always get an attack.
I am gradually and steadily reducing intake of caffeine, and will be off it within a week or so.
