Personal Diaries / Returned from a Trip
« on: May 31, 2018, 06:58:05 PM »
Just back from a trip and have learned a few things. While I was traveling, I noticed that my blood pressure still wasn't coming down again.
So I just made a stronger effort to remove wheat from diet in all its forms and parts. Additionally I'm working hard to keep my carbs to under 10 per meal or 20 per day. A day after eliminating wheat, my blood pressure has dropped to normal levels.Doing additional reading, but most of the other books cling to the whole "healty whole grains" mantra. Tossing those books aside as I go.Went through all my supplements and prescriptions to ensure no wheat or glueten. All is well there.
Have a doctor's appointment in 2 weeks. Having blood tests done before then. Have sent the doctor a note asking to have the tests for Transglutaminase antibodies and/or Endomysium antibodie added to my upcoming blood test. Might be useful.
Anything else, I ought to ask for? We'll be discussing the findings of my blood test when I next see him.
