[QUOTE="Kaz261, post: 1548966, member: 220230"] Hi [USER=430900]@JDub[/USER] and welcome to the forum. I can't add any more to the very good advice you have already been given on here, but wanted to give you my experience. I have suffered with CFS for many years and last year was diagnosed with fibromyalgia (although I don't think I truly have it!). I was also diagnosed with RH nearly two years ago. Since getting better control of my blood sugar, the symptoms of all my conditions have significantly reduced. For me, a very low carb diet didn't help. Whilst it kept my blood sugar beautifully stable, I suffered from a severe lack of energy and I ached all over, which I believe was a result of having CFS/FMS. With lots of testing and experimenting with different foods, I now manage all of my symptoms very well with a moderately low carb diet of 100-120g carbs per day. I have 3 main meals and very rarely need to snack in between. I never eat carbs in isolation, I always combine them with some healthy fat, protein and veg/salad. You're in for a few months of experimenting I'm afraid and as we're all different, no one can do that part for you. Once you gain better control I'm sure your symptoms will ease greatly. You can and will live a healthy and (semi) normal life again! All the best Kaz [/QUOTE]
