That's absolutely wonderful
@kimbo1962 . Well done you. Great results in a very short time. You've been such a faithful and enthusiastic convert
This forum, and the confidence it has given me to make brave changes in my eating habits and lifestyle is responsible for me now being totally drug free for rheumatoid arthritis, since in the last 6 days , I've now taken myself off co-codomol as well, with only mildly uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms after 2 years of taking twice daily doses to manage joint pain.
My current higher than usual bs may be a knock on effect from of the withdrawal symptoms. Time will tell. From being someone on heavy doses of nasty drugs - (one weekly injection was so nasty that my pharmacist refused to take my sharps box over the counter, after explaining to me the dangers of handling them and told me to take them to the hospital) . Other medications were needed to protect my body against the injection, and others to complement it, yet after just 5 months since finding this forum, I'm now managing quite severe RA with LCHF alone, plus recommended food supplements and Vitamin D.
So along with deliberately addressing my T2, I've unintentionally also addressed my RA. The only medication I now take is metformin, and yes, that's my next target!
Sorry to have hijacked your post,
@kimbo1962 but our responses to LCHF have been identical - no cravings, no hunger, more alive, more energy. I'm so pleased for you and have been enjoying your upbeat, positive daily posts. Keep up the good work
