I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1996, after years of unexplained symptoms.

I've been in a mental state of food insecurity since I was diagnosed with Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and Lactose Intolerance almost 2 years ago. Undiagnosed/misdiagnosed symptoms for many years. I live in a rural area small town. Not even one traffic light. We have 2 small grocery stores within a 30 minute drive, and neither store carries much in...
