DBS for essential tremors?
I'm new to this site and am considering DBS. Has anyone had DBS (deep brain surgery) for essential tremors of hands, head (cervical dystonia) and voice? What result? My neurologists say it will help with my shaky head. I know DBS helps shaky hands, it's my shaky head that is annoying!

Losing hope
Dx 2003 aged 46. until about 6 months ago i refused to be beaten. Now I am utterly beaten. For years I’ve taken madopar every 90 mins . I have always had sudden swings between off and on but was able to make them bearable – with the odd blip - with extra madopar. I worked out years ago that protein interferes

The best diet is????
Hey how's it going. Just a quick post as I am off to the golf course and then the gym. So what in my opinion is the best diet? Is it the 5:2 is it slimming world? How about weight watchers? How about low carb high protein, or low protein high carb or good old calorie counting? The best diet system is

Had some great advice from this group that helped me get a diagnosis for coeliac. TSH now at 7.84 - do I also have hypothyroidism
Hi there I have coeliac disease which was finally diagnosed in June 2017 after ordering my own private blood tests and some great advice from this group. I had constantly low Vit D, Ferritin and Folate. I have been on a gluten free diet for almost 2 years now and have been feeling much better than

Calorie Control
The topic has come up a few times lately, so here's some random thoughts on the subject. Calories in equals calories out. Well, of course it does. But for some bizarre reason, the nutritionists think that this implies a lower longterm bodyweight if you force a reduction in dietary calories (against your

I think this couple may have issues :-)
I think the lady is on a very high carb, no calorie restriction diet. I think the man is on a LCHF diet.

Plateau
Hi. I started LCHF 6 weeks ago. It took a couple of weeks to get to grips with it so I’d say for 4 weeks I’ve stayed within 20g daily net carbs. I lost 6 lb initially but for last 12 days have been hovering between 6-7lb loss but not seeing any more movement. Should I be doing something different now

ICD Confusion
My husband had a STEMI in August 2018. Unfortunately, he delayed treatment for 8 hours, thinking he was suffering from food stuck in his throat. He had a stent fitted. His first echocardiogram 4 days later revealed an EF of 39% and damage to the left ventricle wall. After a week stay in hospital where

Extreme lethargy/fatigue on low carb?
Does this happen? I've been doing LCHF for about 3 weeks now. I did have a little blip about 2 weeks in (loads of lentils and rice) but I got back on track. The last few days/week or so I have been feeling extremely lethargic and fatigued, I can hardly lift my arms or legs. It feels like walking through

Big Life Update
Hello again all, I have returned after a extended break from posting on here. The past 7 months have been full of ups and downs. The last one I talked about here was my long term boyfriend and I had broken up and I was very upset and spoke about just wanting to have fun. And well, I did exactly that.

Runniversary - what a difference a year makes!
Yesterday was the anniversary of my starting c25k. So what's happened during that year? Well Runkeeper tells me that I've completed 151 runs, totalling 1290 km. I graduated c25k on 25 July and after consolidation, started to work towards 10k, which I achieved in October. I've done 31 parkruns and volunteered

Low carb diet
Heading off next week (yes I know I have only been back from New Zealand three weeks) for a trip to the Bavarian Alps on the Harley with a mate of mine. Thought I would strip off a few of the New Zealand lbs and make space for a few bratwurst and small beers. So I have been doing low carb for the past

Right hand tremor, now taking 25/100 x 3 (3 times/day), my procedure will be on my left side. Meds work, but tire

Low-carb diet and AF
There was a recent posting about research that indicated an increased risk of AF with low-carb diets. The research apparently had some flaws that several posters noted. Here's an anecdote about my own experience... I have basically been on draconian low-carb for 10 years or so. That is the same time

Soy yogurt
Hi. Over the last three weeks, I've started eating lots of Asda Soy and coconut yogurt. (9 per cent soy). It tastes delicious and has no carbs, unlike dairy. It's a great low carb addition to my diet. I am hypo, taking levo, and feeling very well. Will eating lots of this yogurt affect me??
