I have been on the LCHF diet now for 3 weeks and it's all going well however i have been having cystitis type gripes in my bladder for the last few days. i have been drinking loads and having a bit of bicarb, as i know this neutralises acid! But it feels like my bladder is inflamed and i know that it is not down to high BG as my levels have been between 4.9 - 5.4 fasting and 6.5 - 7.4 after food.
I've read up about ketosis and have bought some ketostix which show up as one down from purple. My question is, is this usual? i am loathe to go back to doc at this stage as she will detect keytones and give me anitbiotics.
