Re:juice is not a problem for me

[Guest guest]

Friends

I just have a few comments to share- just to let you guys know and remember

different things work for different people.

One is I hated digoxin and had to go off it- it gave me palpitations and

pounding in my chest. It made me feel weird and even raced my heart rate.

My doctor took me off of it and we always remember I am not a patient who

should ever consider digoxin.

Secondly I drink FRESH squeezed orange juice and often container orange

juice everyday and it never puts me in a fib. I was zapped over 3 weeeks

ago and have had orange juice (and just the other day grapefruit juice)

everyday since- no problems, not for me anyway.

However, I find smoothies to cause me many many PAC's and that could

sometimes put me in AF. I think my point is that we can never forget that

EVERYONE is truly DIFFERENT and an individual!

Good luck!

About half an hour after I first took the digoxin, I suddenly felt

faint and started sweating like a pig, and my pulse was very fast.

It happened twice more in the next half hour, only not as bad. This

is not a usual occurence for me, so it is one of the things I plan to

ask the doc about on Monday. I did call into the doc on call,

because the first event was really scary, but his nurse is horatia at

the gate and poopooed it. I really like my doc a lot, but that other

doc who is on call is not good - I've had occasion to call him

previously and he never returned the call. Makes me feel like there

is no after hours coverage, another thing I should ask her about.
