Does anyone else have a habit of eating before bed? It started with my pregnancies. I was so sick that I would need to nibble on something right before I fell asleep.

Back problems, can we talk.
I have Firomyalgia and Myofascial Pain Syndrome. For the most part, these things do not bother me. I treat myself with a mostly clean, balanced diet.
