Having a high phe tolerance


I never had 900mg in my life. I always thought the more phe you have the easier life is for you! Its true to a certain extent. All my life I'm so use to eating low protein foods. And always use to running out of phe towards the end of the day or not being able to eat certain things like peanut butter. But since I'm in my third trimester my phe intake had went completely up! I thought to my self that I should enjoy the amount I'm aloud to have now because after bentely is born I go right back to a lower tolerance. Its almost like knowing what it's like having a liver that actually works. But I have to admit. Its been hard trying to eat 900mg. it's a learning process. And it's nice seeing the foods that are higher that I can finally have. But even though it won't be like this forever.  I'm ok with that. Because I know I'm already have conqured maternal pku. The one challenge every woman with pku faces. So any other struggles with pku that comes my way seem so minor to me! Because I know that I can handle it. 😀
