She looks to be in great shape!
I've found also that certain foods aggravate symptoms, so I've also gone off of the nightshade related foods, processed foods, and most meats.
It didn't help I got shingles a few weeks ago as well. But I still rode a mile or three, as it also helps with depression that seems to go along with these troubles. A plus is having plenty of paths to ride on from the house, mostly away from traffic, on my off-days. Figure even if I should ever live to be a hundred, I could still handle a ride like that.
