Cheers @KennyA. It showed up in new I didn't even look at the date of the original post. :bag:

Hi @Alisongood there are procedures in place to protect you. :bookworm: Its very rare that companies fire people out of hand they have to show they have gone through the correct procedure verbal warning, written warning ect.. I do want to express my concern though if your falling asleep at...

Hi @Collwog Best advice in your situation is get in in writing. Create a paper trail that can be used as evidence in your favour. Get everything in writing. But be as polite and accommodating as possible. The Equalities act of 2010 prohibits punitive measures, victimisation and discrimination...

Hi @Debandez, I remember some of your first posts from back in the day when you first joined looking to take control of your condition. Good to see your doing so well. :bag:

Ain't that the truth. The amount of times opening the fridge seems like such a chore just easier to skip breakfast, then lunch if it wasn't for having a daughter, who has some how got into the habit of eating on a daily bases, I wouldn't make the effort for dinner either; a packet of crisps...

Hi @sue1309, This is purely anecdotal and may be due to other factors reducing blood sugars, exercise, etc ... That said I am using a EMS mat for my feet seems to have lessened the stabbing pins and needles sensations. I have gone from multiple times every day to occasionally through the week...

Hi @angeladalton CRAVEING chocolate could be exactly that. Some theories suggest that the body may crave chocolate due to a potential deficiency in nutrients like magnesium, which is abundant in dark chocolate and plays a role in stabilizing mood. Even iron deficiency can create cravings for...

An argument could be made that education is primarily there to teach the masses just enough to enter the work force. Conformity is paramount in such a system. Traditionally society places its highest value on Gardner linguistic and logical-mathematical modalities and seeks only to further the...

Sorry @Melgar It was a long time ago. Possibly. :bag:

Not so sure I put to much faith in IQ scoring. Last time I was tested for anything, dyslexia, I was given an IQ rating of below average intelligence. I have 2 degrees. :meh: :bag:

Ha @Geoff_Woolman like you I have read dehydration can cause you issues. I would have to ask how longs its been going on for and are you drinking enough to make you think its not dehydration? It does not sound like Neuropathy if that's what your worried about. ;) (obviously only a Dr can...

Hi @AloeSvea , as Bob Hoskins used to say " its good to talk." One aspect of neuropathy is for me oversensitivity to touch even even doing nothing, the back of my hands and arms can feel very antsy, feels like my skin is crawling. Its worse in the evening and can be constant. This is purely...

Got to assume that's a typo @Lamont D. I agree with you completely eat and cook fresh food. :bag:

Arrrrrr retrogradation tis a complex form of sorcery. :jimlad: Chilling cooked carbs over night, changing the carbs to resistant starches, can lower GI and calories promoting weight loss in some. (reports vary) However some reports say chewing this food undoes all this. I'd always heard...

Taking this back to the OP's issue of lower carb potatoes, there is a form of ancient sorcery the retrogradation spell, which transforms a regular potato into a low carb potato. (works on other carbs too) Cook then and put them in the fridge over night. Reduces carbs and calories. :bookworm...
