@TAB Tabby you are the most diversely qualified person I know. If anyone can research anything, it’s you.
Breaking cycles is hard! The body doesn’t like change.
Edipose tissue - fat cells, get smaller, but they like staying big.
Then there’s the headaches because you’re going through carbohydrate withdrawal.
The first week is hell. Second week the body stops fighting you.
Third week ⭐️

How did your appointment go?
My doctor gets on my back about the injections. I can't afford them. I said I'll try them when they get on PBS that shuts him up for a bit

It's on PBS for diabetics but I'm not diabetic.
I need to get my iron levels retested after the infusion last year... should do that, my regular doctors appointment is every 4 weeks.
Glad all your bloods were ok!
