Hi Teresa, @gailfiath here. I started this before and I got interrupted and when I got back to the computer what I had written was gone. SO you may have seen the start of this already. Be careful when you cut out white bread, white potatoes, pasta and white rice. While I was in skilled care here at the retirement community where I live due to a scooter accident, I was eating up a storm (gained 10 pounds) but because I am prediabetic I never ate any of those 4 things. And indeed when they tested my blood sugars, they were within normal range. About a month after I got back to my own home, in the middle of the night I turned over in the bed and had a severe vertigo attack. . About a month later, I mentioned it to a friend and she said the she also has some vertigo symptoms but someone told her it might be related to a low carb diet. She wrote that her symptoms got better but not cured, but mine was completely wiped out. I went to a physical therapist who specializes in treating vertigo, and no matter what he did to me, we couldn't get it to happen again. After she told me about the lo carbs, I ate one slice of whole wheat bread and a wheat pretzel daily for several days.!!!!!!!!
