Hello Geoff, WOW congratulations :D This is very great news, well done! The first thing I want to say is that you never stop taking the supplements, otherwise your cardiomyopathy will come back. But you can reduce the amount, 1 x 100 mg Q 10 2 x 500 mg Taurine 2 x 500 mg Carnitine 1 x 200 mcg chrom...

Another Success Story

Hello all,

I wish to congratulate Kriisten for her good health.

I am also a Corrij/Willy success story. In two years of their suggested supplements, I have gone from a dilated left ventricle and ejection fraction of 40 to a NORMAL heart with ejection fraction of 65.

Thanks to you both!!

Another Cardiomyopathy Success story

Willy and Corrij I wish to update you on my progress. And, what a surprise it has been. It has been 2 years since I was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. I had a dilated left ventricle and an ejection fraction of 40. I immediately sought out this site, and have been taking the recommended suppl...

Update

Willie and Corrij, I am doing well. I have a very strong fitness level, and continue on the protocol. I have seen another cardiologist who has kept me on Correg and Cozaar. He has given me NO limitations to physical activity, and was less concerned about the cardiomyopathy than the previous doctor. ...

Heart murmur

Corrij,

All of my heart conditions were found as a result of an echo recommended for a heart murmur--of the aortic valve.

I have had a heart murmur for many years.

Corrij, Thank you for all the information. I will add to it what my doctor has indicated: aortic insufficiency-mild to moderate, grossly normal appearing mitral valve with trace mitral valve regurgitation. My left ventricle is now normal in size, and my ejection fraction is minimum of 45-55 as indic...

Corrij,

I believe prolapse indicates regurgitation. However, it is slight, I believe the aortic regurgitation is more significant.

Cardiology follow up

Corrij and Willie, I thank you for your interest in my cardio condition. I recently sought the second opinion of a cardiologist. He reviewed all of my tests to date: Echo (Sept 06), Stress Test (Nov 06), and Echo (May 07). His assessment was that since my EJF was 61 on the Nov 06 stress test, and le...

Willy,

The cardiologist attributes the improvements to the medications he has prescribed: Coreg and Cozaar as well as abstaining from alcohol for 8 months. He did not believe this supplement protocol would be helpful. Of course, I KNOW otherwise. Thanks for your reply and assistance.

Corrij and Willy, I discovered the stomach pain to be from the aspirin regimin my cardiologist had put me on. The supplements/amino acids were not the cause! As soon as I stopped the aspirin, the pain disappeared. I saw the cardiologist this week for an echo. I got the results yesterday. My ejection...

Stomach pain

Corrij,

Thank you, I will try this. Could any of the other amino acids be causing this.

Amino Acid and the Stomach

Corrij,

I have recently developed a pain in my stomach. I am wondering if it may be some gastric pain due to the high doses of amino acids I am taking with the protocol. Have any other patients had similar complaints?

Cardiologist visit

Hello, I saw my cardiologist last week. He said all is progressing well, and was somewhat surprised that due to the Coreg medication I wasn't feeling a "WOW" better. However, I have never felt I had any significant symptoms which would indicate that my heart is in its current condition. Dr. has adde...

How I am feeling.

Willie, Thank you for inquiring. I must admit that I feel about the same as when I began the protocol. However, I never had any symptoms of dilated cardiomyopathy such as fatigue or shortness of breath. I have always been and continue to be active. My ejection fraction was 40, and I hope to have a h...
