I'm sure you've mentioned it before, but I've forgotten. What effect does chocolate have on you, other than satisfying your chocolate craving and need to devour all food-like substances in your house?
I'll keep those types of chocolate in mind for the next time I visit. &:) What kind of chocolates are reserved for special treats? Do they have the same effect on you as the medicinal chocolates?
I think it might provide a very small amount of pain relief as well, but that might be in my imagination (in response to hearing a few other fibromyalgia sufferers mention a similar effect). And sometimes when I'm feeling a little agitated, eating a significant amount of chocolate seems to settle me a bit (this is different from the cravings).
If I eat a lot of chocolate, it's been known to incite me to write strange short fiction.
Special treat chocolate is ... Lindt, some stuff I never remember the names of, basically chocolates more {potent, rich, complex-tasting, smooth} than Hershey/Nestle/Dove.
As far as I can tell, the medicinal properties are related to how much chocolate is in the chocolates, and the more enjoyable ones also tend to be more potent in that regard.
