refractory RLS, taking morphine

I have been almost two weeks on time release morphine 30 mg, which I take about 7 PM, and it lasts 12 hours, to help me sleep. I tried 15 mg, which worked for about 6 nights, and then worked less and less until not working at all. (During the last three months, I got off 1 mg of pramipexole, and I

Good check up

I had my 3 month check up last week and it went better than I expected. It has now been 6 months since my DVT. My doctor cut my dose of Xarelto from 20 mg to 10 mg daily. My spouse went on a Keto diet, which meant that all of us in the house were on Keto. The number of A Fib episodes dropped dramatically

Acidity and Levothyroxine

Is it normal to get a feeling of acidity when you take your daily Levothyroxine? I’m on the Teva brand, 125mg, I also follow a gluten free diet.

Cauliflower rice

Brilliant Mrs WTP idea for a low carb high mannitol food. Cauliflower rice. Chop a cauliflower in a food processor until couscous texture. Fry in a teaspoon of oil with salt pepper and a little cumin. Serve in place of rice. We had paprika pork (BBC dopamine-diet) brussel sprouts and cauliflower rice

Low Dose Naltrexone anyone?

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has tried Low Dose Naltrexone for PBC? there are so many clinical trials happening for all sorts of autoimmune diseases with LDN and many responding so well. I am asking as the fatigue and itching is driving me crazy. I am a full-time mother to a gorgeous little boy

do you really know what you’re eating?

Ive done a lot of research on dieting and food over the years and I learned that there are many things I see people calling healthy that aren’t. I don’t necessarily blame anyone for not realizing, many millennials and gen z kids (especially americans) didn’t really learn practical life skills in school

How did humans get to the top of the pile?

Thank you everyone who commented on my post around why people chose a low-carb high fat diet, and did they do so after a high-carb low-fat diet. Personally I could debate on just that thread for the next 10 years, and perhaps I will! However it occurs to me a hypothesis following on from that question

Low-carb (almost) Christmas

LCHF has a reputation for being as po-faced and limited as the traditional "healthy eating" guidelines set out by our Dear Leaders, but it really isn't. True, if you're attempting induction, Christmas is not the best time to do it. But once you're in maintenance, you're likely to be averaging

FROSTY RUNNING!

Hey runners! I didn't get a chance to write here yesterday as I had such a busy day that when I got a chance to lay down and look at my phone I fell asleep! Yesterday morning I went running out in the freezing cold frost in a pair of shorts. I didn't want to get my jogging bottoms wet or muddy and so

Keto Diet: Unscientific

Researchers Find Evidence Keto Diet May Increase Type 2 Diabetes Risk. ... The study, which was conducted on mice, evaluated the keto diet. The keto diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet plan that causes the body to burn fat instead of carbohydrates — a process known as ketosis. Edit: https://amp.businessinsider.com

Test results

My MRI of lower gut came back normal. I am now befuddled as to why I am still in pain when I eat. Trying a gluten free diet in the hopes that will help. Any ideas or suggestions?

Allergy to the sun

I have been diagnosed with solar urticaria and have tried all sunscreena, all combinations of antihistamines and Xolair injections, (which worked for a short time then quit working.) Has anyone tried PUVA (photosensitivity treatments) or low dose naltrexone? All I can do is wear many layers of clothes

thyroid, fibroids and gluten

I'm sure there is a connection with thyroid and fibroids as I feel very sluggish with bloated stomach, recently I went on a gluten free diet now just a few weeks and I must say I feel a lot better, so hopefully this will work
