A refreshed journey
I am not sure if I should treat these posts like a journal blog where I just write my thoughts and feelings, or like a forum post where I'd get a response to- but I will just write. Be prepared for a lengthy post. I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer back in 2012. I was just under 150 lbs and looked

Low-carb diet
Here's something that says that a low-carb diet may be helpful for IBS: https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2024/05/30/g-s1-372/ibs-treatment-diet-low-fodmap-carb I've been following one for other reasons, and it seems to be working pretty well for me. Anybody else ever given it a try?

Anyone out there try the carnivore diet.
I have been on a low carb diet since my diagnosis back in March of 2023 . Eligard and Erleada have got my PSA down from 195 down to 0.01. I have been watching a lot of YouTube video's touting the health benefits of a carnivore diet. So far the only prostate diet person posting video's on YouTube that

Low carbs
Im 2 years in on my PMR journey with a really bad flare last July. Which took me back to the beginning. After reading on here about eating a low carb diet. I got out my 800 fast keto book and started cooking from it. Where I don’t stick to 800 I do try to be no more than 1,200 calories. And no more

A few developments - anybody got similar
Don’t want to bore you all but I have had a couple of developments recently apart from having my Rituximab extended for another year. Firstly I am on statins since last Thursday, I am fit, I get out, eat a low carb/high fibre diet but my cholesterol is around 7 so it just shows you. No after effects

W3R1 - lead leg running
Oomph, this was hard. I couldn't breathe, my legs were from lead, the wind somehow was always in my fave and not the back, and it started raining at the end of the run. At least my dog was obedient and she was happy to run with me :)I googled reasons for lead leg running feeling, and I don't expect any

Which is more damaging, high triglycerides or high blood glucose?
I have both conditions and have been given a different diet for each. I think it’s going to be impossible to live without fats AND carbohydrates. Which do you think would be the lesser of two evils? I’m currently on a low carb high fat diet.

Pred reduction and feelings of low blood sugar
'Morning everyone! I am using DL's slow taper and have reduced to the dose which has caused flares in the past - between 5mg and 7mg.

Benefits of low carb and heart-health
I know this is a controversial topic, but would like to put it out there anyway and get some views. There is a massive debate about fat vs carb and its merits on health in general. Any personal anecdotes or research that points to following a low carb diet for healthy heart health? What do cardiologists

Low carb for epilepsy
I've been having a chat with my epilepsy nurse about trying a low carb diet. She is happy for me to give it a go and says some people find it reduces the amount of seizures they have. Has anyone else tried it?

diet info please
avoided prem as long haul flights pending. Lots of increasing pain so was almost desperate to start meds when home! now day 4 on 15mg and noticeable difference. Saw GP yesterday, thinks a ( diagnosed) frozen shoulder may not be helped by Prem. See comments about low carb diet. Any advice please
