I’ve had Covid shots every 6 months since the beginning. My rheum said I shouldn’t bc he was afraid of activating my haywire immune system. I’m anemic too but he didn’t say anything about that. My neuro (also have MG) said he felt I should/could give it a try. Autoimmune disease is so individual, my best advice is read peer reviewed studies, trust your docs, and trust your gut. My health is much worse but that’s not surprising w/o COVID, so I have no idea who was right but I figured the beast I know was preferred. I have not tested positive for COVID yet and I do have some antibodies per a blood test so, I’ll stick with the plan as long as the science doesn’t change.

Sadly, I’m not doing great with diet rn. I like to stay away from sugar & red meat. I have loads of food sensitivities & allergies so it’s tricky. I’ve done elimination diets but I’ve heard good things about AIP, just can’t seem to get the energy to do necessary prep. Of course, your nutritionist, dietician, & doc should help you with the right diet for you. I will say my favorite new product is “Just Egg”. It’s a vegan substitute that’s actually really good & allergy safe!

Yep. Hobbies help. Mobility makes them hurt but it’s ok. Short, creative stints & ergonomics are everything :).

Wow, Covid shots every six months was something I didn't even know was possible. I am learning a lot on this site. I appreciate your letting me know to read peer reviewed studies, trust your docs, and trust your gut. Sticking to what you feel is right for you and researching things is good. Proud of you for that.

I was sorry that your diet was going great. It does sound tricky with the food sensitivites and allergies. You also taught me that there is such a thing as an AIP diet. I will start researching it to tweak the Renal Diet. I have never heard of the "Just Egg" product but did look it up to learn that our local store carries it. Do you know if people allergic to eggs can eat it?

Thank you for writing and letting me know of products and information. I am taking notes. 🙂 Have a great day.
