Hi All!
I started keto because My A1c was 7.1 after 7 months eating keto my A1c is 5.4! I also have Graves disease well it’s in remission!! I have had Graves for 10 years! I am so happy just one thing came back slightly elevated my LDL came back 109 should be 99 or under any ideas on what can help bring it down? I lost 25 lbs too! overall I’m a happy camper!!
Thanks for any help!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! That is so awesome!
I have Graves, too. Been struggling, and my last 6 mos of numbers have been awful, plus newly found nodules. I stopped all supplements (saw in the hospital’s test results app things like biotin and something else could be confounding my numbersl Why did my doctor not mention this?!?) and started keto. My doctor said if remission didn’t happen in 2 years it wasn’t happening. Year 3 coming up in Jan. sigh Cannot wait to see where I am next labwork since starting Keto! You give me more hope!!!
Don’t worry about that cholesterol! It’s close enough to the good range anyway. Listen to the cholesterol and Dave Feldman episodes of 2ketodudes and it will help you understand!
Thank you Tredieb If your Graves meds are working there is always hope for remission! Do you go on the Elaine Moore site she knows her thyroid diseases…If I didn’t find her site I would have killed my thyroid like the Dr.s push don’t do it! I’m loving Keto and will never go back! Thanks for your reply!
I will have to look her up! I am afraid my doctor will start pushig to have it removed soon, but I definitely do not want to do that, and my husband backs me up on that. Thank you!!
Congratulations again!
