I actually read about magnesium and potassium deficiencies, and started using potassium fortified salt on my food, added avocados to my smoothies, and doubled down on the cocoa powder and spinach in my smoothies, but nothing helped. Plus, if it was that, would the pain have faded after eating carbs?


Nothing ever worked for me but supplementation. Protein Power says you can supplement up to 400 mg of potassium - I've rarely needed that much. Now that I'm keto adapted I don't have to supplement. More salt helps lots of people.

I think Thud is right about LC flu. LC can be harder for people whose bodies have disorders and if their sensitive. What you could do is figure how many carbs you regularly eat and drop the amount by 10%. See what happens.
It you have symptoms that are alleviated by sugar, its obviously a blood sugar issue.

Your weightloss is terrific!
