Anyone get panic attacks from what they suspect is MSG? He used to sometimes get mild panic attacks, and thinking back, he thinks it is from MSG in prepared and restaurant food.
For well over a year he had no packaged or restaurant food. Then on his birthday his family insisted on taking him to a steak house. He ordered a plain steak no seasonings whatsoever, worried about possible MSG.
It arrived in some sort of extremely tangy broth that though was MSG containing, but he ate it anyway. Within about 10 minutes he felt trapped in his own body. He felt as though he were screaming but they couldn't hear him. It was very odd.
The time previous to that he ate roast beef maybe six months prior at a restaurant, where they acknowledged right off hand it contained MSG. He bargained with the waitress as to how it would be prepared --- but, the same thing happened as described above.
So now what's he to do. If it's MSG sensitivity to that degree that sucks. MSG is in all kinds of prepared foods, and it is not always disclosed, and restaurant people are often clueless and they might look at a label but it might contain any of dozens of codewords for MSG if it lists MSG at all.
