Advice please
I would be grateful if anyone has experienced having two kinds of Mercury pharma thyroxine. I started having some 25mcg out of a big bottle that I was told was Mercury pharma and then given 25mcg in a blister pack with eltroxin on the box. I have been experiencing acute diarrhoea and at times complete

4 weeks of Keto
I have now been on Keto with TRE (16 hours) for 4 weeks exactly. I am going to switch to low carb from today, and my current plan is to go full Keto again in 2 months' time. I checked the ketones with a stick this morning and they are in a small amount range. I think that can be explained by the

Genetic testing
Hi there. I am a 43 year old female, recently diagnosed with Familial Hypercholesterolaemia. My latest blood tests showed that my levels had dropped from 9.6 to 9.4. When I was first diagnosed 2 years ago it was 9.9 so it is proving to be quite hard to control. I maintain a low fat diet and Do what

High cholesterol or not?
Just had some results back and some readings are showing a red flag. I'm very active and have a healthy low-carb diet. Should I be worried and Contact my gp? This was a private test through benenden. Thanks.

Asthma symptoms
Hi all, just wondering if anyone gets the same issue as me. So my peak flow etc is ok but at the moment I feel like it's harder to breath. Not like gasping for air but more like it's more effort. I am coughing up mucus but I think that's due to smoking. I am trying to stop but it's so hard It's really

Cholesterol and Statins
Just had results of Cholesterol test which is 6.2 (up from 4.8 three years ago and pre PMR). Started a low carb diet as soon as prescribed Prednisolone and it has certainly stopped me from gaining. Weight but has meant that I have had to add more fat to my diet for energy. I am guessing that this has

Carbs and inflammation
I had been weirdly regretful that I wasn't suffering from inflammation previously, so I wasn't able to rejoice in it going away with low carb. I have eaten very carby meals on about 4 occasions in the last 18 months, with no apparent side effects. Until last night, when I was sat in front of a plate

Measuring peak flow
I had to get a new peak flow meter last week and have been having real problems with consistency. When I first used the new unit (different make to the previous one) I was shocked at how high my reading came out but know that different meters can vary. When I do my three readings, it is incredibly inconsistent

Pancreas-friendly Recipes
For many patients, it is difficult to find recipes that comply with a low-fat diet and serve individual needs at the same time. Nutrition plays a key role in managing pancreatitis, and exchanging experiences can be very valuable to others. Do you know some pancreas-friendly recipes you want to share

Diet - my story so far!
When diagnosed with PMR...within 2 months I was diagnosed prediabetic. I was already overweight from steroids for lung issues a few years ago, and hadn't been able to shift the excess. I went onto the keto diet, while on 15mg steroids. I lost a stone in 7 weeks but as soon as I stopped it it went back

Call asthma doctor? She doesn’t help much. Long term prednisone.

Low carb road in the hole (2)
Just tried subtle badger's idea for toad in the hole as Yorkshire puddings instead. Doubled the quantities and cooked in muffin tins. Made 6 (very) large ones. Surprisingly delicious and felt like a real treat for Sunday dinner. Give them a go!
