    Still Worried & Symptoms

    I feel like **** after eating. Chicken (fats, proteins), cabbage, radish, mushrooms. All of this make me feel lethargic, headache, pressure in eyes, anxious. My BG goes to 6.x usually. And I feel really ****** at this level. I am not supposed to have such blood glucose on low carb. This makes no...

    Still Worried & Symptoms

    1.5 years ago I had a similar episode and indeed had ketones and other stuff going on. I did eat carbs and it resolved but I also had a glucose meter and my BG was never going above 6 even after a meal with carbs. I also did not feel anxious, lethargic and tired after such meals. And BG meter...

    Still Worried & Symptoms

    I am a bit ignorant on this, could you elaborate? But from a limited knowledge I have, I think it means BGs can be running higher when on less carbs and stay higher longer after eating. But having browsed tons of resources online, I find that people do not feel bad even with higher BG and also...

    Still Worried & Symptoms

    BMI around 21. My weight seems to be stable. But I am feeling that eating carbs again is rather risky endeavour. If protein send me to 6.x, then carbs would do more harm. But, it could also be that the body is now less adapted to process carbs efficiently due to the diet. But then we go back to...

    Still Worried & Symptoms

    What else to do, I guess. I keep eating this diet, that I personally really like these days. However, my BGs should not be going to 6.x if I am eating few carbs. They not only go there but stay for an hour at least.

    Still Worried & Symptoms

    I posted before about my stumbling into low carb and starvation diet and failing OGTT. For the past week, I was eating more, my food consists of chicken, vegetables such as cabbage, radish, brocolli, I cooked salmon yesterday with lots of mushrooms and also use some coconut milk. Diet is still...

    My Issues - Continued

    I posted before about BG issues. Today I had appointment with an endo and before that, I ate large avocado, brussels sprouts, lots of chicken and spinach. My BG rose from 4.4 to 7.0 in 2 hours, then stayed at 6.x for the next 2-3 hours. When I went to an endo, it was 15:00, 6 hours after meal...

    Immune System Stuff

    Hi, I am basically a confused person who is trying to get to the bottom of health issues. All started rather fast a month ago and keep pestering me. I am suspecting and investigating a double whammy - insulin-dependent diabetes and hyperthyrodism. Both autoimmune. I do not test positive for...

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    Thanks, yes, I am eating those veggies raw, no cooking. I discovered that it is actually tasty. I am definitely hyper, hence trying to eat against it and use supplements to remove excess thyroid hormones. Don't need more of them. And yes, I am irritable somewhat. People walking on the pavement...

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    My problem is not hypo, I am hyper it seems. My blood tests show that and eating a bunch of thyroid suppresors seem to make sense to me.

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    Thanks for the advice, going to get some cabbage and hopefully sauerkraut or kimchi. Well, I can tell you that my FT4 was 1 point lower 6 months ago with the same TSH value and I felt functional. Now it is 1 point higher with the same TSH and I feel horrendously bad. No one measured my FT3, but...

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    @No2D Here is a thing. I originally went to endocrinologist scared about having diabetes symptoms. So, he did antibodies tests and they are negative, as in all 0s. The problem is that I have shown him the thyroid tests, and while he was not concerned, maybe because my TSH is weirdly normal...

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    It also seems that if a cure for one autoimmune disease is found, then all others can be addressed as well.

    How intertwined is thyroid and pancreas?

    I started off my journey with diabetes symptoms and went on to do type 1 tests. Antibodies were negative. However, I then reflected on my older lab results for thyroid and I had present of anti-TPO antibodies (within limits though) and my FT3 and FT4 are on the high end for at least a year...

    Breaking Out of Insulin Resistance

    Is it possible to have normal fasting blood sugar, no antibodies and still have diabetes? I read up about MODY and some of the symptoms seem very similar to main.

    Breaking Out of Insulin Resistance

    Second night in a row, two hours after meal and going to bed, I wake up with hypo symptoms. My heart is beating like crazy, shaky legs, sweat and total lethargy and headache with shaky, shallow breathing. My blood glucose at the time of event was 5.0 where meal consisted of chicken, eggs, bacon...

    Breaking Out of Insulin Resistance

    This long post seem to tell exactly my experiences: http://www.longecity.org/forum/topic/76770-high-fasting-post-prandial-blood-glucose-after-low-carb-keto-diets/#entry715853 Except the guy did not do something crazy like OGTT and end up in ER.

    Breaking Out of Insulin Resistance

    Does this sound correct? " Your body is undergoing gluconeogenesis excessively. xEva just mentioned the seemingly paradoxal effect of increasing carbohydrate intake on LOWERING blood sugar. This has to do with the fact that carbohydrates increase insulin and incretin hormones, which shuts of...

    Assuming this is correct data: http://freetheanimal.com/2014/03/reiterate-elevated-ketone.html That explains a lot of my experiences.

    Breaking Out of Insulin Resistance

    "Eat normally". My normal used to be at least 150-200 grams of carbs a day. Otherwise, he said dietician is going to be very useful to gradually "refeed" myself safely. I am still in doubts about this whole thing. Internet has variety of opinions about whether people become more insulin...
