Hello! I am 20 years deep at age 40 into basically helping doctors regulate my thyroid after a horrible medical overdose at age 17 my thyroid was never the same ….perhaps it was like that as a kid from a traumatic move because I gained 40 pounds seemingly overnight, however I didn’t become medicated

Thyroid Test Help
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's) in 2017. Hashimoto's runs in my family. I think my primary doctor originally prescribed 50 mcg levothyroxine and when I got in to see an endocrinologist he upped this to 125 mcg and after a few months dropped it down to 75 mcg. I took 75 mcg daily for

Ketogenic/Paleo diet
I have been following a ketogenic diet with very little dairy. It is very low carb and I've lost weight and generally feel better on it. However, a recent blood test showed that I have a low sodium level. Whilst I do season food I don't eat any processed food, so no crisps, savoury snacks etc. that

The rehab continues!
My rehab sessions at the local gym continue 2x a week where I have been doing a mixture of strength training and cardio work .This has been very successful in toning up areas that had needed it , especially with the recent weight loss of 14.5kg (2.5 stone) The plantar Fasciitis is certainly less but

Gallbladder
Has anyone here had their gallbladder removed after also having had a cabg? How did you get on working out what to eat and what not to eat? I wasn't given a diet sheet, only advised to stick to a low fat diet with plenty fruit and veg. I'm finding I'm eating the sane things all the time! Fish and chicken

Headaches - just started a week ago - is it hypo related
Last Thursday I developed a really bad headache - I was at a wedding and the music was loud and I blamed that (I don't drink so it's not related to that). The headache has never left - I have had it every day since although not just as bad. I believe I have Hashimotos although never diagnosed - just

What I learned about steroids and blood sugar levels from wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) on the ZOE program
I’ve just finished using a CGM for 2 weeks as a paying participant in the ZOE study, which I mentioned in a previous post: https://healthunlocked.com/pmrgcauk/posts/149526653/ive-signed-up-for-tim-spectors-zoe-study-looking-at-blood-sugars-and-gut-health Many PMR and GCA patients, self-included, have

sweating and tired
I’m having masses of hot flashes and I’m really tired. I’ve lost 10kg over the last three months (deliberately through low carb diet) but I’m thinking that might mean I’m now over medicated because I am less kilos than before. The other possibility is that I’ve not used my hrt patch for a few weeks

change in IBS symptoms
Hi I am totally confused and a bit bewildered. So I have had IBS with terrible bouts of diarrhoea for over three years. During which time I definitely had trigger foods which made it a lot worse. Going on a gluten free diet seemed to help slightly as did a fructan free diet. Also low fodmap. But didn

LCHF / IF for August?
Hi all The title means Low Carbohydrate High Fat / Intermittent fasting. Both are ways of eating that can help people loose weight without the need to count calories or eat less and without the need to go hungry. Both ways of eating can also help to ease several health conditions. IF and LCHF work

Recent Blood results - your advice
I have been on Levothyroxine now for about 6 weeks. My results are as follows: I got tested at 8.50 am and hadn't taken any medication from the morning before at 6am. I ate nothing before test. I felt good for a few days but feel as bad as ever again - just low mood and tired and no energy. I was
