Does the low carb approach to eating also help the pain of PMR?
This was flagged in my Inbox today - and might account for why some people experience increased pain when they binge on "treats" after being on low carb eating for a while. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/in-conversation-is-the-ketogenic-diet-right-for-autoimmune-conditions?utm_source=Sailthru

Gluten ataxia.
Just want to make it clear that having gluten ataxia and then going gluten free is not a cure. For many there is still no medication and only if you don't respond to a gluten free diet are you offered anything.A gluten free diet and a healthy eating approach along with regular exercise helps. I also

Thyroid tests
I have Graves disease since 2007 and had thyroidectomy in 2019. I have felt fine for the last 4 years on levothyroxine (75mcg Monday to Saturday, 50mcg on Sundays). I've recently developed digestive issues with some indigestion and morning diarrhea or loose stool at best. Had FIT test which was negative

Hashimoto to Graves
Hi All, I have been lurking as a member for >8years following a diagnosis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis. I have been managed with varying doses of levothyroxine, follow a gluten-free diet and supplement with B12, Fe and Vit D oral sprays. Having gained weight during Covid, I decided to make a conscious

Proton Therapy timeline question
For those who have had proton therapy, what was your timeline? What period of time elapsed after you began ADT and had the simulation? And then, how long after that did the actual therapy begin? I've been reading and can't seem to determine a timeline, other than one guy wrote that he had the simulation

Low dose naltrexone for PMR?
Has anyone tried LDN for PMR? One of my doctors suggested it.

Feeling very unwell - do my blood results explain why? What to do next?
Hi Mid August My NDT was increased from 2.5 to 3 grains. By the last week in September I began to feel what I describe as a 'bit off' , these feelings come and go. My partner had covid , I tested negative a couple of times. I did have a bit of cough and sore throat but that lasted only a couple

Thyroid Test Help
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's) in 2017. Hashimoto's runs in my family. I think my primary doctor originally prescribed 50 mcg levothyroxine and when I got in to see an endocrinologist he upped this to 125 mcg and after a few months dropped it down to 75 mcg. I took 75 mcg daily for

T3 update for @relentless
Hidden this is for you, but all welcome thanks for remembering, after a few weeks switching from Teva to Aristo T4 125mcg I had a Roseway appointment and discussed a trial with the pharmacist prescriber. I now have their compounded lactose free capsules. The 5mcg daily prescription and 12 week

Causes Of Breathlessness
My asthma used to be simple. Periodic periods of tight chest and breathlessness. Then it worsened and they diagnosed asthma, many hospital visits later and i got up to severe asthma with poor control. Then I realised that my breathlessness was not simply asthma. There were very sharp attacks that

what is the desired T4:T3 ratio? (because I don’t think this is it)
I just put all my latest lab results in the calculator and said “YIKES”! What ratio should I be shooting for? This doesn’t seem right — and I sure don’t feel well. Having the percentages really helps me understand just how low I am on B12 & D! Thanks always. - T4:T3 Ratio: 0.417 - Free T4: 1.25

Peak flow app with reminders
Can anyone recommend a peak flow recording app for iPhone that notifies you when it’s time to take a measurement? I’ve been using asthma md but it doesn’t have this feature and I keep forgetting to take my peak flow. Thanks in advance.

getting better but anxiety over future
Hi, I was diagnosed with asthma last September after being in hospital for ten days with a bad exacerbation. All out of the blue. I was on oxygen for most of it and coughing up thick green stuff after a chest infection. Could hardly breathe and almost in ICU. After recovering from that I picked up more

Diep Flap Procedure Question
Hi, I'm a breast cancer survivor and I had a double mastectomy. It is planned that I'm going to have the Diep flap procedure and I was wondering if anyone could advise me on how weight gain and loss affect the body after this procedure? Thanks

Alternatives to sugar
Hello, as some of you know from my DD posts, I've recently cut out added sugar in my diet. I do still eat things with natural sugar like fruit, but as I also follow a low carb diet they tend to be berries, which are lower in sugar anyway.Recently I've been wondering what to use instead of chocolate for

How long can Asthma flares last?
Hi I’m in to my 5th week now with a tight chest and struggling to breathe. A&E couldn’t find anything untoward and GP could only offer stronger antihistamines and Montelukast which I have reluctantly started a few days ago. The worrying thing is that my peak flow isn’t too bad but I still have the tightness
