Comfort eating and energy issues
Luckily I am doing well with my
mood
now, as it dropped extremely
low
and it was very dark and I finally feel I am bonding with my beautiful little girl. One thing I am struggling with is comfort/ binge eating and my energy levels. I can go through a pack of biscuits and think nothing of it.

My muscles ache in my arms and legs, I am permanently exhausted, have a very
low
mood
and racing thoughts. Diagnosed with GCA and PMR last July 2020, reduced from 40 to 15 with a flare in between. When I walk my muscles at top of hips/lower back stiffen and cramp so exercise is agony.

Insulin and prednisolone problems
How do I manage my blood sugars on Prednisolone at 15 mg per day. I am a type 2 diabetic on insulin injections 4 times a day, plus Metformin 2 gms. My blood sugar levels are astronomical in spite of a low carb diet and exercise. Prior to my PMR diagnosis 7 months ago I was attending my gym 3 times per

Weird feeling in toes and wobbly walking
This last year of the pandemic I’ve not addressed some things I should have what with the many difficulties. Things have piled up and I’m trying to sort them out one a a time. One thing is this issue with my toes. When I flex them it feels sort of strange, like they are “crunching”. Seems

Asthma ruining my life
I am afraid to play sports due to worrying about dying of asthma attack. I take regular meds fostair, montelukast… peak flow is 800 but when I play sports during summer months my breathing is worse. I get breathless doing light exercise I normally run 10k in under 45mins can’t run no more due to pollen

IBS, headaches and diabetes
Hi I have been suffering with headaches for awhile now and it seems to be linked to whenever I eat sweet foods. I stopped eating sweet foods last week and headaches went away. I wondered if this is a sign of diabetes? I struggle to eat a healthy diet as most healthy foods flare up IBS D. I wanted to

Chest pain*, spasm & tightness
*the pain is ongoing & is on breathing; so not a heart/emergency problem, just after advice! Hey- hope everyone is ok and hay fever ain’t causing too many issues. I’m having quite a few symptoms currently relating to the above. My chest goes tight, spasms as in all my lungs seize up like a fist 🤜🏻

Low carb rebel (inspired by Rosina1871's question of yesterday)
This was originally going to be a response to Rosina1871, but I then decided to make it a separate post as I would like to see other people's comments on my own experience. I too understood that 'a low carb diet is necessary when on steroids to avoid weight gain', so for a time I diligently followed

Naive question
I know that a low carb diet is necessary when on steroids to avoid weight gain, but does the different dosage of steroids influence the amount of carbs you can eat? Ie if you are on 30mg are any carbs more likely to give weight gain than say if you are only on 5mg. Sorry if I haven’t worded that too

Low carb toad-in-the-hole/yorkshire pudding/popovers
The recipe has been going around the internet, it's simple and delicious. 1 egg 60 g/ml of double cream. 8 g/1 tbsp arrowroot flour Mix them together, and use as you would use a flour based batter. In this case, I put the sausages in a 200C oven with ghee (you want hot fat) to until cooked, then pour

Switch to MART fostair from seretide
Having been on seretide 250mg for a good few years, as well as added in spiriva respimat, fexofenadine, montelukast and nasal spray (recent change to dymista), have been switched onto fostair 100/6 MART. According to my plan, its 2 puffs twice daily, plus an extra 4 as and when. This change was made

I have found my Peak Flow readings = 580 in 2008, 550 in 2011, 550 in 2014, 550 in 2020. I think these are good readings = only mild asthma?
Nurse thinks my asthma is getting worse - I think it's steady & Mild?

Brain Fog
Hi I'm new here, though I've posted on the Thyroid Forum before. I'm a 51 year old male. In 2014 I went on a low carb high fat diet and it affected my thyroid function, causing low energy and brain fog. I self-medicated with dessicated thyroid for four or five years without any relief of symptoms - I

TRIMBOW????YOUR EXPÉRIENCE invited
Hi I am now living in France from U.K. I have been on sera tide 500 x 2 puffs a day for years. For my asthma. I also have mild bronchiectasis. My lung capacity has gradually reduced over recent years. Peak flow used to be 250 but recently below 180. My doctor in France said seratide was old fashioned
