Ok I have been doing keto for a month and a half and went to Dr today for infection in my leg ,not the first and not from keto
That said I have lost 6 1/2 inches in my waist,lost 29 lbs
An my a1c had gone from 7.9 to 5.9. I am a 62 year old man and have metabolic syndrome from open heart surgery complications. I have weighed as much as 653 and now I am happy to say that I am now down to 410. I see keto as my new lifestyle. I don’t consider it a diet. Thanks for being a sounding board .

Mate! You’ve been through the medical mill!
I had a cellulitis infection in my leg 3 times. In hospital for a week each time with an antibiotic drip and bordering on septicemia and thrombosis.
Keto , getting decent sun exposure (vitamin d) and losing nearly 100lb means I’m not going to risk my life anytime soon with bad infections.
Stay the course. Your support team is right here. 
Edit: Corrected to septicemia
