Hi, I've been on the low carb, high fat diet for a week. But today I felt horrid, dizzy, itchy ect. And I have very high keytones in urine. Not needed any insulin today at all due to diet and exercise. Are keytones with a low blood of 7 ok? Or should I go Doc..

Ketones with a low blood glucose are normal when eating LCHF.

If you go and look in the low carb forum there is a lot of helpful discussion.
