Ablation/Inversion Update bad start better end to the week
Ongoing updates .. intended to be helpful so apologisee if this is like a rather like a self centred saga! following my first ablation on 10 July and a cardioinversion last Friday 14th of August (after 3 weeks of my worst "Afib") The inversion worked for a week but I have now moved back into Afib

Taper Success
Hi all. Once again thank you for all the invaluable advice over the last few months. I have managed my first successful taper - only 1mg but that's more than I have managed since the induced flare up back in February. What's worked for me is going very low carb. Really really obvious when I eat sugar

Bless me LCHF, for I have sinned
It has been four months since my last sugar, but yesterday... 😨.. 😱 I had one third of a slice of cake. And then, in the evening, I went to a chain restaurant that was not aware of low carb. I picked what looked like the safest options, various animal based [i]tapas. [/i]they all arrived covered

Peak flow
Hello there Can I ask if there’s a way to get health professionals to take your symptoms seriously even if your peak flow is your best? Mine is at my best yet I’m SOB, yawning loads (stops if I use reliever), coughing and my breathing is noticeable to other family members. It’s definitely not anxiety

Has anyone tried or researched low dose naltrexone for pain symptoms? From what I’ve read is it works like opioids. I’ve tried opioids once and didn’t seem to help. Just wondered if it may work a little different also. Shows that it helps with MS and neuropathy so possible. The last increase in Gabapentin

Keto recipe recommendations
Hi guys! I’m looking for some tried and tested keto recipes. I use the diet doctor but some of the recipes I’ve tried taste absolutely awful. Someone kindly gave the recipe for 4-minute keto crackers which were divine with some cream cheese! So does anyone have any other keto recipes that they have tried

Not a great few days
Got on the scales to discover that I have put on over a stone so time to embrace a low carb / low sugar diet I think! Have also bought a Fitbit so it will be interesting to track my sleep patterns. Also, last ‘visit’ to rheumatologist did not go well. I got a text a few days ago to say that it would

DEXA Dilemma - Round 2!
Warning! Long post, so grab a cup of tea/coffee first. This will either make you laugh or cry. You may need a Hobnob half way through to sustain you, even if you’re on a low carb diet! 😀 Morning all! Nope, it’s already afternoon. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun!🤪 Let’s just say I’m not in

Feeling a bit down
I’m feeling a bit down and sorry for myself ...lol, do you ever have those days? I’m trying to fill out PIP form and you know when you’re writing your worst day scenario. Frustrated too cos I’m still struggling to breathe with the step up of my inhalers although my Peak flow is improving. I’m not bad

Questions about adding T3 to levothyroxine for the first time
Hello everyone, I have been given a private prescription for liothyronine (2 x 2.5mcg per day) which should hopefully arrive in a couple of weeks. I'm currently on 150mcg levothyroxine which I take at night. I prefer this as it means I can eat/drink tea as soon as I wake up, and I noticed I feel more

rise of bg with LCHF
I am using LCHF diet already 4 years. It worked well, but during last 2 months I have often higher bg before lunch in spite of eating the same breakfast each day. Today I have 6,9 mmol/l (125 mg/dl). Usually I have between 5,6-5,9mmol/l. What is cause of such rise of bg ? Not food but may be less

The Magic Pill
A bit of background. Heart attack in April, stent fitted. TC 7.2, HDL 1.0, TG 1.3. I've refused statins and in 3 months I've dropped 2 stone, but I'm still a little overweight. TC 6.1, LDL 4.5, HDL 1.1, TG 1.1. I moved to a mediteranean diet which basically involved cutting out the bad stuff, because

Is cream a good LCHF food? (as part of a balanced diet)
Is anyone struggling to keep up to their target weight? I usually break my monthly 72-hour fasts with 500ml of full-fat yoghurt, followed by a cooked brunch. I normally fast 20 hours a day, eating only two meals... but, after lunch, I had my breakfast cereal-free muesli - in a bowl full of double cream

Better at night?
Hi, I'm new here and was recently diagnosed with asthma. I had a Covid-like virus at the end of March before testing was available in the UK, with breathlessness and low-grade fever. The fever lasted 18 days and still comes back occasionally. My bloods and chest x-ray were clear, and I had a negative
