Falling apart at mid life
Hello, I have had results for my recent well woman blood tests and been told my cholesterol is 5.8, my blood sugar is 44 & I need to lose 20 kg. Wondered if anyone could recommend a good diet to follow that would help me lower all these results?

Benefits whilst shielding.
Can anyone tell me how we are supposed to live with very little income. My partner has to shield due to having his transplant 2016. He started a small one man business in 2018 but had to isolate starting March 2020. Since then he has lost the business but gets no help as he wasn't trading long enough

Has any seen benefits of running on either diabetes t2 or lowering medications?
I am T2 on metformin. Well controlled A1c of 6.4. I am also doing C25k with a hope of losing weight (need to lose 10-13 kgs) and reverse diabetes. Anyone else doing running and seeing benefits? I would appreciate if experiences are shared. TIA

Test results and more questions than answers!
Hi I am hoping one of you more experienced people can help me move forward with my medication. I am currently on 75mcg Levo and 30mcg T3. I am greatly improved especially mentally - much calmer and no anxiety or feelings of panic. My weight has stopped piling on may even be reducing a wee bit - I no

Medichecks results - help in interpreting these please? Also do other people share these with their GPs and if so how does that go down??
Hello - after my disappointing dose increase of Levo of 25mg *every other day* following my last NHS blood test (3.79 - in range) but still having problems (mainly walking pain and need for long sleeps that I really don't have time for) I have now had my Medichecks results. Not too bad but think I definitely

PMA one month - Now Grade 2 Diabetes!
I've only been part of your community for a month, having been diagnosed with PMR on January 2nd. I am on the usual 15 mg Pred and have had my first monthly blood test. Unfortunately the ESR(?) is still on 40, which means it hasn't gone down, so the same Pred for another month. But what is more worrying

AKI ... Contrast Induced
Good morning! Can anyone tell me how long an AKI lasts and whether, after a certain length of time, it becomes Chronic Kidney Disease!? I had a heart attack 2 months ago and required Angiography & stenting. A week or so later, it was found that I had suffered an AKI due to the contrast dye used during

Hiatal Hernia & Gerd now worse due to SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth)
I also have asthma (controlled), type 2
diabetes
(controlled by
diet
& exercise) and now osteoporosis (PPIs can erode bone I've read). I've held back from medical appointments due to COVID but the situation is worse and I have to get checked.

Alternatives for sweets
I have long been a low carb dieter, and the fats I'd eatch are the healthy fats (avocados/nuts, etc) as well as the protein I'd eat are lean meats, eggs and protein shakes. I also cut down my carbs to mostly veggies and for a snack, popcorn, healthy popped/low salt/no butter. My one guilty pleasure is

Actemra and weight
I've been on Actemra for about a year. Been off it for a few weeks because of tooth extraction and rheumatologist wants me to restart. RX insert and other research says most biologics and more specifically tocilizumab (Actemra) causes weight gain. I lost significant weight while so sick with GCA even

LCHF without dairy?
Hi there, I’m currently calorie counting which I find fits with family life because I can eat the same meals as wife and kids. Interested in exploring LCHF but I have a dairy intolerance (that’s a big part of why I dismissed it as an option months ago). Wondering if anyone does LCHF without cheese,

Staying low carb in a high carb world
I have had great success with going low carb, and sad to say I think my greatest ally in this has been coronavirus. I started December 2019, on what I first thought was going to be a diet (as in something I do for awhile and then stop) and allowed myself to break my own rules at social events. So, over
