So long story but I ended up connecting with Rachel Weaver, quickly found out you two knew each other, and finally decided to poke at my unfixed reality a bit and visit Dr Bills. Just finished two weeks of CGM and meet tomorrow with him to learn the results!

Kimberly!! Wowza. You’re a brave badass. Praying for clarity in the appointment!

Ta da! Clarity indeed! Similar patterns to those that found success with the Keto three-month diet. Not in the central percentage like our friend Rachel (which predicted about 90% success) but he said he's 70-80% sure I'll feel improvement. Soooooo, now.... to figure out when I can go on this three month adventure?! Thanks for sharing your DM with me, I'll circle back!

Those are great odds, the same I was given! Plan for a 3 month adventure with a 3 month extension (latter half of the above post). Happy to help you along as best I can!

Amazing! I am so glad to hear this had such a speedy profound effect. Not the first case I’ve heard (more the first of many).

I always said if someone told me keto would work so well I would have done it. I went anti-inflammatory way of eating instead so it took longer than a few weeks.

This way, I could supprt myself in the absence of professional help. So I’m glad you highlight the importance of that as I was having to lean on my intuition and body led direction at the time. Whilst trying to apply the least amount of pressure.

I find it really interesting the “surely it can’t be that simple” question - as I was asked the same.

It is that simple. But putting it into practice and bringing in the support is not usually so easy.

It’s a chronic cycle breaker for sure. But finding a way to do it that is supported and understood whilst meeting patient need is the challenge.

Hi Natalie, I’m in Australia and unfortunately Dr bills doesn’t do zoom consults. I have a very supportive doctor to guide me through keto I hope you don’t mind, I’ve sent you a direct message with a couple of questions. I also would like to add I’ve been wearing a glucose monitor and have made some changes to my diet I have certainly felt the benefits. So grateful for your work in this Natalie, I look forward to reading your book… a huge big thank you. Xx

Also, the key is finding the doctor who will actually take on the challenge! I found mine while doing a routine visit at a clinic. I'm thankful for my sister for recommending great clinics. I had never heard of the clinic before she told me.

So true, Shauna! That’s more than half the battle.

I'm so happy for you, Natalie! I can't do the keto diet because my kidneys are fragile. And the last thing I need is to lose weight. However, I am always thrilled when people find solutions to their migraine.

Thank you for sharing! 💛☀️
