SueHL 0 Posts 0 Followers 0 Following I am new to the site. I would like advice in relation to digestive problems since taking levothyroxine.

Hello everyone. I’ve decided to follow the LCHF diet as opposed to counting calories. Can anyone help me please, does it give you headaches and make you tired. I was very tired all day yesterday and have had headaches also.

When can you not get DBS?
When I went for my last neurology visit right before Christmas, it was suggested that I consider DBS... I was taken aback, because I can still get good results with c/l (although since my PD honeymoon ended it has gotten a lot harder), and I thought I would have a lot more time until I needed to consider

Is it too soon to get excited?
Hi all, Further to my posts, desperately needing help, I was flooded with so much support and advice, all of which I have been following. Adjusting when I take my Levo, foods/drink and timings, gluten free diet, no soya etc hardly much change, but the difference I am feeling for the first time in over

Are you in Keto? Be mindful about your BMD-Bone Mineral density ! Lower BMD DEXA score would mean that you are heading towards osteoporosis

DBS revision
I’m curious if anyone has experience or knowledge of the new generation of DBS units that have “steerable “ current. More specifically, I am interested in the St. Jude Infinity units ability to be used after the Medtronic units have seemed to lose therapeutic efficacy.

LCHF — but not Keto
I'd never heard of LCHF as a diet until I joined this group but, when it was time for me to start losing weight, it seemed obvious to me that I should be cutting down on carbs. It was easy to eliminate potatoes, rice & pasta. I've never been interested in sweets or cakes and I was only eating bread out

Just can't make my mind up! Bad luck or RA -one of them is guilty.
After terrible upper abdominal pain over the weekend (a repeat of incident just before Xmas - put down to steroid induced gastritis) the suspision is that I have gallstones - and extreme pain is biliary colic (now waiting scan etc). Apart from being female I don't fit in the normal groups who are vulnerable

Antibodies and ultimate destruction of the thyroid
greygoose I have now been gluten free for nearly two years and my sole aim has been to reduce my antibodies (TPO >1300 and thyroglobulin antibodies 394). These have both gone down substantially on each of my last three blood tests. I have seen you say so many times that this is pretty well meaningless

CKD vs Diabetes Eating
Diagnosed with CKD stage 3 GFR 35 about a year ago. Also diabetic type 2 insulin dependent. Having trouble figuring out an eating plan. Nutritionist told me to ignore diabetes diet, nephrologist told me to follow diabetes diet but dont eat bananas, tomatoes and oranges. So confusing. Eating whatever

Exercise dizzy
I thought it was just the motion of yoga, but have started skipping - same problem. Only did a minute and was so dizzy. I'm making sure I'm hydrated, etc. Is the low-carb killing my exercise ability?
