Hi Jimi, So glad you got some relief by increasing the dose. I remember you said you are a vegetarian. The beans are a great start. I eat a lot of beans myself. Dried beans are even cheaper than tinned. All except lentils need to be soaked first. Dried lentils are great because you can cook them in 40 minutes without soaking first. Do you think you could add some fish (tinned or fresh) or eggs? You said you eat salads. Its so easy to keep boiled eggs in the fridge and add them to salads along with tinned beans. With the dressing and other vegetables it is quite delicious. Cottage cheese is another convenient non-meat source of protein which I make use of. Not sure what it is called in the UK. Its the white lumpy curds. I know, it doesn't taste that great. But I've eaten a cup of it when I felt weak, tired, and spacey and it picked me right

up. The nice thing about cottage cheese is that it doesn't require any preparation. I eat it right out of the container. But you can also mix it with vegetables or fruit. Its also good with raw sunflower seeds added in. I know you're doing your best with food, money, and making changes These are just a few easy things that would get your protein up. BTW I'm not a vegetarian. But I was for five years. I worked hard to keep my protein up with meatless sources. I still love many vegetarian dishes, but would never give up meat again because it made me feel so much better.
