Questions for the doctors...Forgot about my fast and ate 3 bites of yogurt

So I have a Rathke Cleft Cyst and finally got some time off to do my labs. Except, I was cramping from my monthly and took some medicine. I ate 3 bites of yogurt to have something on my stomach, forgetting I'm supposed to be fasting. I had basically a "full panel" drawn. The time a ate the yogurt and the time the labs were drawn were about 1.5 hours. Should I be worried about false readings?

Dietitian with autoimmune disorder wants to start own Practice

Hoping I can get insight on ways I can combat my life long chronic illness while chasing what I really want out of life. Im currently holding a full time job as a dietitian and it feels like it is sucking the life out of me. In fact I did not get diagnosed with this autoimmune disorder until after I started working there. I will be leaving and starting my own practice and I will feel much more fulfilled working hard for myself than a company. If anyone can tell me how they go about smoothly transitioning their health insurance I would appreciate it. I have expensive infusions, neurologist and other MDs I want to keep on my team. I also MUST keep my mental health provider provided via teladoc. I had a hard time finding someone I clicked with. I do not want this illness to dictate my life. I know that making the change will be hard at first, but eventually I will have the freedom that I am aiming for.
