it's supposed to be kind of genetic too

yea.. the only thing with the term genetic is that it can mean a lot of different things :O you can be predisposed just because of your body type, and also the culture your family raises you in can have an effect (ie eatting habits, exercise and such). You could also just have some gene that makes you more likely to get it for some reason, but that usually has to do with how the body handles certain chemicals which can sometimes circle back to diet. This is so because if you're genetically predisposed because your body holds on to/does something with certain chemicals, and the foods you eat contain those chemicals, then you're more likely to get it.
Maybe you should ask your doctor what type of diet you should be on. He'd probably just laugh at you and tell you to take your medication, though.
