wsgts is correct, we made the assumption that you are diabetic because this thread is in the diabetes forum. Count yourself lucky that you're not diabetic. The caffeine question was a good one. Have you recently changed your coffee consumption? This can *adversely* affect you, withdrawal, etc.

I'm glad to hear you are taking a multi-vitamin and essential oils, however you will need more cal/mag and potassium than the mulit-vit provides. Using No-salt is very cheap and is worth a try to see if you feel better with more potassium. I don't really mean to nag but it really does help most people. If more potassium doesn't help, go to your doctor, the cause could be something else altogether.

I hope you stick with LC, it really is a good, healthy way to eat.
