Methotrexate
Hi all Rheumatologist wants to put me on methotrexate becuase I'm struggling to taper - currently on 17mg. I'm reluctant, it's another nasty in my view and the increased monitoring is an additional stress. But getting the pred down is important too especially as I'm developing the chubby cheeks. I've

Low ferritin low hemoglobin celiac three years ?
I have posted before but at my wits end. I was diagnosed celiac three years ago due to very low ferritin and hemoglobin. I began gluten free diet and iron supplements and my levels were back to normal. Dr took me off iron and I continued gluten free. Past labs have shown a steady decline in my hemoglobin

Frustrated with GP
Hi, I’m hoping anyone can help or if anyone has had the same experience I’ve had asthma my whole life, no one else in my family has it so everything I’ve learnt about asthma is through my GP (asthma nurse). The past couple of months I have been struggling a bit with my asthma, I’ve been 3 times now this

Pancakes
Ayup playmates. How about this for a very simple low-carb pancake recipe? 2 eggs, 1 heaped tsp Psyllium Husk, 2-4 tbsps double cream, enough milk to reach your preferred consistency. Pinch of salt. Mix the ingredients together to make a pancake mix to your preferred consistency. I found there is enough

Clenil making cough worse
Hi everyone, newbie here! Doctor thinks I may have cough variant asthma as I have an ongoing dry cough (bark) for years now... they always put it down to allergies as my peak flow didn’t indicate asthma, anyway they have now given me Clenil with a spacer which I have religiously taken for one week twice

Back again for help with recent blood results. Am i still a poor converter?
I am still a little confused with my most recent results , a recap: My GP instructed me to reduce my Levo from 100mcg to 75mcg, back in March when he saw that my TSH was 0.13 (0.27-4.2) I didn't want to , but was too lethargic to disagree with him. And he is only concerned about TSH, not how

The time has come (the walrus said)
- to join LCHF. I joined HU when I signed up to C25K, 7 weeks ago - before that I didn't know it existed - and C25K is the reason for my username - nothing to do with food! I soon joined Healthy Eating, because I have been interested for a long time, and the Gluten Free community, because I am a newish

Anyone lost a lot of weight managed not to have loose skin?
Since early March I've been determined to lose weight for health (and vanity - have to be honest). Happy with weight loss of over a stone since then (joined LCHF in June). I've lost 4 inches from my waist (was an 'apple') but I can already see fairly loose skin and I still have 3 stone to go and don't

Hello from newbie
Hi all, fellow RLS sufferer here, for about the last 7-8 years. Been to a couple of GPs who were pretty unsympathetic TBH so I gave up on them and, after much experimentation, I now ‘manage’ the 3-6 bouts a night with magnesium and potassium tablets (as each bout comes on). Doesn’t matter what strength

Frustrated and apparently over medicated
I've just had a frustrating call with the respiratory consultant. In the 7 months since I caught covid I've had 3 courses of pred, vast quantities of ventolin, added montelukast, upped fostair from 2x100/6 to 8 x 200/6 a day and added uniphylin continus - my GP has been fantastic and over 5 months I'd

Diet type map
I used to have a link to a sort of mind map diagram of all the variations of diets with a couple of lines summing up the unique features. For example it would start with Low carb and split into LCHF, Paleo, Keto, Cavemans, Atkins, etc. I can't find it any more, does anyone have a link?

Further update on leg satsuma
Ok? So I went to A&E due to the pain and swelling on my knee. Guess what?? The consultant refused to see me even when I explained that I had difficulty sleeping and the pain level made me feel nauseous at times and referred me back to my GP as they already knew about the problem and should refer me

(Probably) My last entry in the mayo off: Low Carb BLT
No mention of bread in BLT name.... ...nor mayo, but I am not leaving that off. Fresh lettuce leaves (baby gem in this case), cook bacon and then tomatoes in bacon fat. Assemble as shown with mayonnaise, roll up and eat..eat over a plate, it drips. But also it's delicious. After this entry, I am

Bit of an update and a query
Hi all, hope you’re doing good. So I went to back to the GP after a week of prednisolone, peak flow diary and ventolin and he thinks from the steroids and ventolin helping me and the ups/downs of the peak flow that I may benefit from a preventer inhaler and to see an asthma nurse. He said I will need

Celiac and Low iron levels
I was diagnosed with celiacs disease three years ago. I also take meds for GERD, hypothyroid, pre diabetes, cholesterol, and anxiety. For the first two years after adhering to a gluten free diet and also supplementing with iron pills, my levels were pretty stable at 14. My doctor noticed that they started

Keto/low carb?
Hi there! I’m brand new to PMR and prednisone and really want to keep my weight and blood sugars in check. I’ve gleaned from the forums that most people do this with a low carb type diet. To that end, I have joined dietdoctor.com as someone had suggested. They have what looks to be an easy 2 week keto

The LCHF future
What with the world collapsing around our ears, maybe now is a good time to contemplate our post-apocalyptic future. It's become politically fashionable to talk about veganism as the new Heathy Diet; God forbid this should ever happen, because it'll precipitate another apocalypse (involving ecology,
