Default Getting back on track

Hey...got a question...done Atkins 3 times since 1998( 2001 & 2004).
Each time I met goals with success and better health than before. But somehow with 3 kids, a wife who has more success with low-fat and a sales career I invariably have gotten off-track.
Last 3+ years I have endured some life changes & health issues so now I am ready to get back on with a vengeance but seem to having some issues with what used to be easy : going WAY low on carbs for the last two weeks but not getting into ketosis. Could meds I am now taking but didn't used to be a a problem; I am now on blood pressure med & taking allopurinol to curb uric acid. Also, maybe some low-carb foods might not be helping, but they were not a problem before...plus,maybe age? I turn 50 this month...any thoughts? Thanks!
