Let's have a chat about disability support for chronic illness...specific to those of us who have chronic fatigue and pain, and who like to eat faworki and golabki!

Hi @Antoniaaaaa, hope your week is off to a good start, how are you doing?

I found a web community that is all about chronic illness...called https://themighty.com/

Maybe there are some stories or articles on there that you can relate to...

Hope today was a good day, but if it wasn't, hang in there - tomorrow might be better! smiley

It is interesting to make it specific to people who eat those foods. I like cabbage, and I might eat kimchi or sauerkraut or cabbage soup or stuffed cabbage. But I don't eat a lot of deep-fried foods, and I avoid carbs so the Faworki would probably not be something I would eat. I find that I can positively influence my fatigue by eating well. I have not been able to cure it though.

Hi there...you are right about eating well having a positive influence on your fatigue as well as other symptoms of chronic illness. I have found my situation to be the same - that good food defnitely makes my life less miserable, but that it isn't enough to rid me of the illness.

@Antoniaaaaa and I were having a discussion about Polish food in a group chat before I started this thread, that's where the food references came from ;)

I have cfs and pain. I also love stuffed cabbage. I have not tried the other yet. I am also diabetic so i need to watch carb intake.

Hi WeedyGarden, I am a fan of the stuffed cabbage and understand having to watch your carb intake. I realize that faworki are not healthy, but they came up while discussing delicious Polish food :)
