Antibodies increasing in spite of dietary changes
I've had my bloods tested before going to see a specialist next week. One thing that surprised me is that my antibodies have gone up: TGA: was 234, now 353. TPA: was 33, now 34.8. I was just wondering if anyone had an idea why this might have happened? I've gone strictly gluten free. I'm also on next

Too much NDT perhaps?
During the last year I've struggled to raise my NDT dose because i seemed to create adverse symptoms. However after about a year of taking various supplements for adrenal issues, I did get brave a couple of weeks ago and increased the dose by a small amount. Two to three weeks in, I seem to be tolerating

I’ve been gluten free and mainly also grain free (which I find such hard work) since April, I’ve followed numerous protocols on the advice of a functional nutritionist to heal my

Confused
Hi all , I'm completely confused I was diagnosed with Cmt last year . I am 57 years old and spent so many years being told I was clumsy and falling over, I was sent to an array of different doctors to the point I was beginning to think the symptoms I had was in my head, anyway to cut a long story short
