BEHANDELING HART EN VAATZIEKEN

Hi Corrij, I hope your holiday was great! I have a question about taking Ubiquinol instead of the CoQ10. I have Shane taking the Ubiquinol because it remains in the bloodstream much longer than CoQ10. The Ubiquinol pills are 100 mg. Should I decrease the dose that was recommended for the CoQ10 which...

Thank you Willy...We are going back Wednesday for a follow-up visit.

Hi Willy, He gets worse at night and can't sleep and also has headaches. I took him to a naturepath doctor yesterday and he has him on a different diet and some helpful supplements to help him sleep and get rid of the anxiety. He suggested to eat more quantities of darker green vegetables instead of...

Hi Willy, I looked over the causes, etc. of RLS, and he does have that but hypoglycemia may also be the cause of many of his symptoms. I will get him checked for that. It does run in our family. I was looking up natural cures for hypoglycemia and found that chromium picolinate, B6, zinc and cinnamin...

Hi Willy, Thank you for the recommendation. My question about Shane is that he has been having a difficult time trying to sleep. He is restless at night because of his legs and arms not wanting to calm down. Also he is depressed and has anxiety. Do you know what might be causing this, and is there a...

Hi Corrij, We just got back from the cardiology center visit and they said that Shane is doing well. They will be testing his EF on the next visit in a few months, and then hopefully adjust his Coumadin dose. I would like for him to get off of it completely, so we will see. I am really anxious to ge...

Hi Andrea, It's so good to hear that you are doing better! Especially about your left atrium reducing size. I bet that news really made your day! Shane has dilated cardiomyopathy, and the idea of his heart getting it back to more of a normal size would be very promising! He has been on the protocol ...

Hi Corrij, Just an update on Shane. He is doing well, but is still pretty sore off and on where his defibrilator is implanted under his chest muscle. I guess the soreness is normal accrording to the doctors. He still has quite a bit of energy and feeling well! We will be going back to the cardiology...

Corrij,

Great information! I will check and see if Shane's CoQ10 contains Ubiquinol.

Thanks so much,
Verona

Hi Corrij,

Is a vegetarian formula multi-vitamin good for Shane? Here is one that I am looking at: http://iherb.com/ProductDetails.aspx?c=1&pid=824

Also, if he needs to take 500 IU of vitamin E daily, then should we include in the total what he is taking in the multi vitamin?

Thank you!
Verona

Hi Corrij, Just an update on Shane, he got acute bronchitis last week and went to the hospital and they now have him on durectics or the drug to clear his lungs. They also have him on antibiotics and a week later he is still doing much better. They only kept him in the hospital for around three hour...

Hi Corrij,

Shane is having to take 14 pills of the D-Ribose and it seems like quite a bit so he has been skipping doses. Is the correct amount 12 grams which means 12000 milligrams a day?

I just wanted to be sure. We can order some chewables that would be less pills if so.

Thanks so much!
Verona

Hi Marion,

I think it was just a local anesthetic that Shane had while they implanted the defribulater.

How are you doing so far?

Verona

Hi Marion, Did you convince the doctors to implant the defribulater under the muscle? I agree that it is more protected under the muscle. By the way, I really like your avatar, I have some antique art deco around my house. I appreciate Louis Icart artwork with the greyhounds. My dog is a greyhound a...

Hi Corrij,

I spoke with Shane last night and he said his headache is still gone. Should we start by slowly building the MSM again?

Thanks so much!
