I have fibro and arthritis and have also recently been diagnosed with insulin resistance and candida. My nutritionist has put me on a lo carb diet but reading the messages on here I'm not sure if I'm having to many carbs a day. She said I can have all vegs (except starchy ones) pulses and beans, nat yogurt, young cheeses, cream, nuts and proteins. On top of that I can have other carbs up to 30g a day. No sugars or yeasts.[CENTER]

Shes taking it slowly with me as she said I wouldn't cope with the toxins from a quick die off. I also have loads of supplements.

How many carbs do other fibros have and what sort of relief do they get? I'm feeling just a little clearer in the head but other than that no better.

Also does anyone sleep for over 10 hours a night and then stuggle to wake up at 11.30am? Can't decide which is the worse - the exhaustion or the pain!

Finding this board has been such a relief to read about others like me!
