Nausea - is it the pred, or something else?
Hello and thank you for the constant flow of useful insights. I know that stomach problems are a known side effect of steroid use, but I couldn’t see anything under nausea in the FAQs - sorry if I’ve missed it. This is my story: I’m 73, PMR diagnosed in summer 2020; since when I have reduced successfully

Iodised Salt
Should I used iodised salt? (on gluten free diet/hypothyroid/levothyroxine) I note that ordinary Table/Cooking Salt is not iodised.

My blood sugar is 254mg/dl after 1 hour of lunch
I had a lunch at 1 pm. It included one bowl (100gm) of white rice, sambar, a small cup of potato fry, another cup of vegetables, and 200ml of buttermilk. I took metformin 500mg before lunch and went for a 2km walk inside my office. Took a random blood sugar at 2:30 pm and was shocked to see the reading

Brilliant presentation!
It’s good to hear that the right messages are getting out there. This presentation was at a Low Carb conference. https://youtu.be/ZE6-FHf-0oY?si=1KSnuGcRexz4SvMw

eating gluten prior to biopsy
Hi, I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a few years ago during covid. At that time (lockdown), the second stage of diagnosis was suspended. In my case, my blood results and the fact that I have first degree relatives with coeliac disease and I also have thyroid disease all combined to mean there was

Liothyronin T3 and insulin resistance
I’ve been doing some research as my blood sugar levels (measured by HbA1C) have been persistently high despite exercise, low carb diet, weight loss and muscle gain. Prompted by the very wise SlowDragon that T3 can cause high sugars, I decided to delve deeper. I came across a lot of articles online

GCA and type 2 diabetes
Hi all Warriors Since being on prednisone (since July 2023 at 60mg, now at l6mg) my A1C has slowly crept up. Had blood work yesterday and A1C is now at 7.1. I have been told by my rheumy this is steroid induced and will start going down as I taper. Even though I have been tapering by 1mg every 2

2024 is the year to change
I’ve been overweight for most of my life. I was bullied because of it at school and have always felt out of place and self conscious. I have type two diabetes and hope that losing weight will help me. I want to lose 33 pounds. My aim is to achieve this by the end of June.

How Coeliac, Non-Coeliac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) and Wheat Sensitivity can impact ONE person on a PsychoSocial Scale !!
It says it all really. Today, I spoke to someone else who is gluten sensitive. They told me about the difficulties of having to explain themselves to others. I quipped, ‘I don’t like your cooking,’ as a cheeky answer. They chuckled. All of the above are very difficult and poorly understood illnesses

Visit to endocrinologist and Prednisone at wee hours.
I visit my, very helpful, endocrinologist every three months. Yesterday we were discussing my medication and I was telling her that I was taking prednisone at around 2-4 am in the morning -when I got up . She asked me why take it at night? Well, I had a garbled expression as to how we think about
