support

Hi hi I’m just feeling down. My luteal phase started today and i always start to tank in energy and get really itchy with mcas and yeah,
It’s like you try to tell people what you’re going through and then they give you unsolicited advice like “have you taken supplements”
And I’m already trying to validate to myself why i feel so shitty and that it’s okay

I wish it was more common to have autoimmune disease support groups irl!
Living like this is truly exhausting

switching to partially plant based

Hi ! I’ve been vegan for 10 years but my health has been steady decline for 3. While I do NOT think that’s solely due to my diet, I do know my ferritin level (iron storage) was scary low at 8. I feel like shit often/super fatigued.
I have hashimotos and been having some reallllllly heavy periods. Like really. (Yes I’ve been to a doc)

I was thinking of adding beef liver supplements to my diet and wanted to know if anyone else has done this? I genuinely have no desire to chew on actual meat again but would love the nutrient benefits. In fact I might need it.

Would love any words of advice!!

(I’m waiting on getting approved for blood testing so no worries there)
