Message: <blockquote data-quote="AdamJames" data-source="post: 1760052" data-attributes="member: 459333">If it turns out to be as simple as that (entering ketosis), then I had a heck of a time a while ago with night time urination and lack of sleep when I drastically reduced carbs and didn't really know what I was doing.I think one of the many mistakes that I made when having that problem was to keep changing daily amounts of carbs. Constantly making my body think it needed to run off fat then off carbs the next day probably didn't help. If you are experimenting with reduced carbs, it probably makes sense to stick to roughly the same amount each day for a few days, or even weeks, at a time to let things settle down. A lot of people start at say 100g a day, see how they get on, then often get down to 50g a day eventually, and then may take it down to 20g a day if they want to try a 'keto' diet which can almost guarantee constant ketosis in most people, and some people even then go down to virtually zero. But it's definitely best to keep changes slow and steady, and many people report that it can take weeks to fully adapt and start to feel okay on a 'keto' diet.Good luck at the doctors tomorrow, hopefully you will at least get some answers.</blockquote>
