A member asked:
Iam 38 years old i have itp and erythromelalgia. i tried many diet nothing really helped but only low oxalate diet helped control the flare why ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reason: Oxalate is an acid and low oxalate should raise ph in blood and tissue. Your erythromelalgia is primarily a problem with vascular spasm. The elevated ph is4 associated with increased electron voltage across cell wall. That can dilate arteries and improve symptoms.
