    No one here can give you a medical diagnosis. Multiple conditions are best left to your medical professionals.

    What has your food protocol looked like up to this point. Have you been advised to follow any particular food group elimination protocol from your doctors in the past or present. I'm asking what you've been doing up to the age of 50.

    All of these things matter. Trying to be brutally strict with yourself right out of the chute because a particular age is looming on the horizon is a setup for more discouragement. You're dealing with many things at one time. Edge your way down slowly. Tiny steps for tiny feet. Don't throw everything UP against the wall to see what sticks because it's overwhelming.
