Re: Eliquis & some possible supps ok? - 3 days ago

That's fantastic information George, thank you! It will take a bit to get my head around it but at first reading and watching a few videos it seems to make sense By chance or instinctively i;ve been drinking distilled water (our tap water has fluoride added) for the last 2 years or so with added Na, K, Si,Se, borax and MSM (dimethyl sulfone) - all in small amounts Mg - probably a teaspoon/

Re: Eliquis & some possible supps ok? - 5 days ago

Thank you George! very clear! The iodine protocol is intriguing to me. In 2015, prior to going into permanent AF for about 4 month, i supplemented with Kelp tablets 1gx6 for a few weeks (medial scientist's recommendation). The doctors suspected that my AF was brought on by the iodine in kelp. After some months my TSH kept going up and at 6.4 or so the GP put me on Eutrosig 50mg (the hospit

Re: Eliquis & some possible supps ok? - 7 days ago

Hi George, could you please clarify mixing 8.5g of vitamin C with methylene blue. Are you taking a total amount of 8.5g of C/day and 5.5 g of that is mixed with methylene blue🤔 Quote8.5 g of ascorbic acid vitamin C (5.5 g are mixed with 23 mg of methylene blue to convert it to the reduced leuco …

Re: Afib and diabetes - 23 days ago

Suspect one should endeavour to manage both regardless if they are related or not. The best book i've read on diabetes control T1 and T2 is by Dr Bernstein. The ADA is, don't know how to put this nicely, not a good source My blood glucose readings tell me that i'm pre diabetic and/or insulin resistant. Still trying to work out if there is an association of the two in my ins

Re: Natale Says Flec W/Out Metoprolol? - 5 weeks ago

FWIW, i take flec as PIP 50mg and if it does not convert i take another 50mg several hours later (4 to8 depending how i feel) .After an episode (had about 4 this year, probably due to slacking off with diet etc) i take 50 mg twice a day for a week or so and than once/day for another week or so till the next episode. Sort of feel not quite right in the stomach when i take the drugs - i also inclu

Re: grounding sheets - afib ? - 5 weeks ago

Thanks for that info update Barry! That's where i most likely watched/listened to it as well. Without looking deeply into it, my take is, what's the downside of doing it (earthing). As for Mercola - i prefer to look at the arguments presented rather than the person presenting it

Thank you Barry! Will look for the alu parts. But i will switch a resistor into it just in case someone messes with the wiring and creates an earth fault.

Re: New Study: Fish Oil Increases Risk of A-Fib - 6 weeks ago

Must be something in fish oil as mentioned that increases AF otherwise people who predominantly eat fish would all or at least the majority have AF. Do they???

Re: grounding sheets - afib ? - 6 weeks ago

Interesting Berry ! How did you make your grounding mat/what materials? Personal experiences are very useful for forming lines of investigations rather than just dismissing them. Seem to recall from a video Sinatra (cardiologist) who thought that grounding was all bulltish. He put blood under a microscope prior and after grounding and found that the platelets didn't clump after grounding l

Re: grounding sheets - afib ? - 7 weeks ago

Isn't grounding supposed to affect the Zeta potential (vague memory) and that in turn reduces platelets aggregation If that has any other affects i have no idea but would love to see some science on it.

Xeralto - 2 months ago

Some time ago an older friend changed from Warferin to Xeralto and he thought it was the best since sliced bread. Maybe it was a year or two after starting on Xeralto he had bad side effects and had to stop. At the time he was talking about some class action in Germany relating to Xeralto... Just came across this and it seems all is not quite right? Since some of us might be on Xeralto it may

Re: shingles vaccine - 6 months ago

Thanks George, since you mentioned chicken pox - i remember that i had that one as well. Probably had all the contagious infections plus some in my childhood without any adverse effects.

Re: shingles vaccine - 6 months ago

I never had Herpes in any shape or form in my 74 years. There is an antibodies test: QuoteVZV IgG antibody testing can be used, along with IgM testing, to help confirm the presence of a recent or previous VZV infection. Viral detection involves finding VZV in a blood, fluid, or tissue sample. This can be done either by culturing the virus or by detecting the virus's genetic material (VZV DN

Re: CAVADEX- An atherosclerosis treatment too good to be true? - 6 months ago

If it works it works but i'd like to have a few independent studies before i spend money on his say so. Is it treating the cause or the symptoms, assuming it's efficacious in the first instance? Cholesterol is a vital part for our well being. The fact that it is in arteriosclerosis doesn't mean it's causal Look at the lean mass hyper responders levels of LDL and their arte

Re: Sinus Rhythm with Wide QRS - 6 months ago

QuoteDoes amiodarone affect QRS duration? Amiodarone's effect on QRS duration is between that of the IB and IA agents consistent with its tau rec of 1.5 seconds. Moricizine's effects on QRS duration are more marked than would be expected from its tau rec of 2.6 seconds but may be explained by the slow onset of inactivation block.

Modern medicine, is it? - 7 months ago

Dr Paul Mason is a Sydney based doctor. In this presentation he talks about dealing with causes of illness. It resonated with me when i look around family and friends circles. Wonder if it does so for any of you? This post might also fit under Susan's 'How to choose a doctor'

Re: Colchicine's Rebirth as Cardiovascular Drug Approved by FDA - 7 months ago

Good post Susan Some say that the main beneficial effect of statins is their efficacy for reducing inflammation Some doctors used it to reduce the cytokine storm to great effect in people infected with Covid. Wonder to what extent inflammation contributes to AF?

Re: I'm getting an ablation - 7 months ago

Hope it works for you first time Mel-O! Ablations do work but what i don't understand is why no researcher (are they even looking) can't explain paroxysmal AF. After all, something triggers AF and something else stops it again. As a fellow sufferer i wonder if there is even a will (incentive?) to find out basic cause(s)

Re: P-Wave - 7 months ago

QuoteGeorgeN What's the difference between irregular heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV)? To give you an order of magnitude, 1 second = 1000 milliseconds (ms). Sixty beats/minutes (BPM) = 1 beat/second. A variance of 100 ms would be 6 BPM. My 30 something daughter has HRV around 120 ms, I have 40-50 ms. In afib, it is not uncommon to have a beats go from 60 BPM to 120.
