[QUOTE="BBTempleN, post: 2306721, member: 530332"] Thank you for the responses. I will check out a BG monitor as it might be that I'm Ok with some things and not others, so I can carry on and not exclude those with no reaction, though I guess different combo's may caused different reactions. As mentioned in my post I can't do keto even though I would like to as I can't cope with the fat levels. I am trying a low glycemic diet (Patrick Holford) not for weight loss but for maintenance. That doesn't seem to call for high fat and meat that much, so thought I would start there. I don't eat red meat, only a bit of fish as suspect that can be a migraine trigger, but I do have chicken and prawns, but try to keep dairy to a minimum as I'm dairy intolerant (tested). I might try veggies for snacks rather than fruit with peanut butter. Its a mine field out there. So many people say not to snack, keep meals to a minimum so don't have so many insulin reactions, but I don't think that s for me - not at this stage anyway. Its also difficult to fit in with family meals and society. Seem to be going from one meal to planning another at the moment. I think I'm OK hydration wise as I have some scales that measure moisture in the body as well as weight and fat and muscle etc and it seems normal, as I have also suspected that in the past. Tried allsorts!. Thanks for the prompt though as I may need to increase if a low carb diet affects this. I also checked out a really good Youtube video Elena Gross (PhD study on migraine. She also had really bad migraines and has calmed with keto/low carb) who discusses migraine being a metabolic condition, and similar connections with epilepsy and the benefit of a keto/low carb diet and probably best not to fast if you have migraine. In a way its what got me started in this area, I'm just scratching the surface at the moment so thanks for help :) [/QUOTE]
