@lindijanice what a lovely post [emoji813] thank you so much for taking the time to reply. It seems you understand me very well! It is so difficult and not everyone "gets it". I will definitely take your advice on board. Thank you lovely xx

Thank you @Juicyj the job change is necessary and I didn't have much choice as to where my new post is. I can definitely do the exercise. At the min I don't do anything so I bought a pedometer today and will aim to build my steps each day [emoji5]

The home is being sold so staff made redundant. No choice in the matter unfortunately..

Hi everyone. I'm looking for some encouragement and direction. I have so much going on atm I feel incredibly overwhelmed and instead of facing it head on I've gone into hiding and avoidance! So a bit about me.. A married nurse from Ireland.. Type 1 diabetic for 8 years.. Currently on Novorapid...

Sorry @lindijanice is the low carb program the one that you pay £29 for? Would you recommend it? Xx

Oh brilliant thanks so much.. Will check that out [emoji5]

Has anyone come across ready made diet plans suitable for vegetarians?

I was seen at clinic yesterday and my main problem is pre bolusing on work days.. It's just not possible. In the morning I need a 50-60min pre bolus and 30mins at other times. This leaves me with high spikes I chase endlessly on work days. My next problem is that my Levimer is running out after...

Thank you for this [emoji813] unfortunately they think it's crohn's or colitis. They won't know until I have the biopsies so I just hope I'm seen sooner rather than later.. Exhausted from the pain, the toilet issues and the lack of nutrients..

I'm co Antrim!

Thank you both so much for your helpful replies! Since posting this my GP has contacted me to say my inflammatory markers are high which could be a sign of bowel disease. Have to say it's going to be a long night of worry for me before I have my GP app tomo morning.. [emoji17]

Yes @Mr_Pot that sounds sensible. I kind of already thought that myself just looking some reassurance. Thing is when approaching ivf I'm just so desperate and clutching at straws! Thanks for the reply [emoji5] [emoji106]

*apologies if this is in the wrong sub forum So having been ill for approx 3 years with many issues (nausea/diarrhoea/constipation/anxiety to name a few) I was diagnosed last August with iron deficiency anemia. After some months on ferrous fumarate my levels had not improved so my GP sent me...

So I've had a blood test that showed antibodies that would indicate I have coeliacs and I'm currently on the waiting list for endoscopy to confirm. I've been advised not to change my diet until then as that can effect the results. I'm really concerned about the absorption of other medication...

Sorry if this is in the wrong section.. I had mentioned before how I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia in August and after 2 months of galfer my levels hadn't improved. My GP is sending me for tests for coeliacs as she says that might be a reason my body isn't absorbing the iron...

So long story short I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia but after 2 months of galfer my GP said my body wasn't absorbing the iron and levels still too low so she wanted to test for coeliacs. I've had the blood test this week and waiting on the results which I know can take a few weeks...

Thanks @Kristin251 I think no matter what my test says I'll def try to cut out as much as possible xx

OK thanks bignewt [emoji5] am going for a blood test next week for ceoliac then again in 2 months to see if my iron levels have improved any. I will speak to her tomo for clarification [emoji106]

@Kristin251 funny you should say that I feel so ill after any diary especially milk! Have sort of cut back on that anyway as it makes me feel so unwell. Had never realised the two went hand in hand x

I don't think that's the case as she is concerned I wasn't absorbing the iron as my levels were still out of range. There goes my discalculia again! Lol. Thanks xx
