On LDN and these are my current bloods: advice please?
Just back from labs. The doctors (the one who has known me for years has left and the twinkies being trained on their GP rotation no doubt) want me to repeat the bloods in 3 months. As if. Here's my dilemma. My blood results, taken at 9am, fasting and without thyroid meds for 24 hours Levo and 36 hours

Dietary advice while on Predisnolene
Can anyone help with dietary advice to avoid weight gain, and hopefully lose weight. I was diagnosed with pmr in July, started on 15 mg now down to 10 & trying slow taper to 9. Low carb difficult as I can’t eat lots of fruit & veg. Any advice really appreciated

Newbie!!
Hello, I am new to the site. I have been low thyroid for over 20 years now. I initially welcomed my diagnosis because I hoped that I would be able to lose the weight that I had gained uncharacteristically for me once I had my thyroxine levels ok, but that didn't happen. I found ThyroidUK and tried

Lesson learnt
After 7 day course of prednisolone, rang asthma UK helpline for advice on day 7 as I wasn't completely better. Advised to contact my doctors late afternoon after 5pm and explain my situation. Requested for the duty doctor to ring me. I spoke to the doctor who went through my history and was advised to

What next?
Rheumatology apt. next week but have already decided I'm not going to have an infusion or any Bisphosphonates. I tried Risedronate and it gave me terrible side effects which I'm probably still suffering from. No more horrible drugs for me but I'm carrying on with the exercise, good diet, low carb and

Enterococcus faecalis and Carbidopa Levodopa - Some answers
With
K
citrate, you can start
slow
with only 1-3 pills a day. Monitor your blood pressure and watch out for hypotension. Some people take it to prevent kidney stones and it's a urinary alkalinizer. Potassium pills are limited to 99mg to avoid overdosing for susceptible people.

LCHF Dilatory Pattern disturbed briefly -SUGAR LEVEL NOT COMING DOWN .....Afterward!
As an adherent of LCHF diets since 2015 I have been managing my Type 2 condition very satisfactorily. My readings have been around 120 until June 2019. I was trapped into a situation where I was forced to do away with my controlled diets for about a months’ time leaving me with readings around 160

Calcium from food sources
So all in all I would like to ensure I am getting as much calcium as poss from food sources. At the minute I take two Adcal in the morning and two in the evening After looking into it further I wonder if I would cut down to one at each time, or none at all. But then I would be worried I wasn’t getting

Asthmatic and Fed Up!
I am 19 and at university and thoroughly fed up with asthma. I had asthma as a child (not very badly) and used an inhaler occasionally. I had glandular fever in summer of 2018 and since then all hell has ensued. Last Christmas I had multiple asthma attacks being taken into hospital. I had high dose

Too much fat
I’m on my 5th day of LCHF and tonight I thought I would cook the meatballs with tomato’s and spinach and mozzarella. Looked lovely but I could only manage a few mouthfuls it was just so oily and greasy, was making me feel sick to be honest. Is it because I’m not used to eating so much fat in my diet.

LCHF substitutes
I'm looking at my favourite recipes to see how I can adapt them. Normally I would have used some flour to form a roux for thickening sauces and added breadcrumbs when making meatballs, burgers and so on. Are there effective substitutes?

Hazelnut Truffle Recipe
Background: I made and enjoyed pavlova this Christmas. In case you don't know, it's basically a soft meringue (aka aerated sugar) covered with cream and more sugar. I very much took a day off my eating plan. I deliberately didn't take any left overs home, but I had some ingredients: double cream, crushed
