Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 Hi, I don't eat anything after 6pm. Not even over the holidays. During the day I eat my regular meals and sometimes snacks. I have last 39lbs since June of last year. I feel much better not eating after 6pm. I used to wake up occasionally with afib and sometimes I would get it at the time I went to bed. I have had one 8hr episode in Nov, but I did not go to the hospital and usually my afib is much faster then it was then. I started drinking lots of grape juice, which has a lot of magnesium, when I have afib I drank extra grape juice which seemed to help. One thing I have had thought is hives for 4 months and I am hypothyroid. I have not had grape juice now for about a week and guess what my hives went away. I don't know, perhaps what I thought was helping me has actually hurt me. I am now going to look for some vitamins with magnesium in them. Peggy acidophilus I have had two incidents of a-fib (one from stress-holidays etc...the other from over eating and have not felt good since the last episode. I had extreme gas -bloating but I notice I ate a yogurt which contained acidiphilus, bifidus, l casei, l reuteri ...I have always eaten yogurt before and I am lactose tolerance. However, I had not eaten yogurt for months; only dairy milk (lactaid) in cereal. I could not sleep last nite and cut an (ambien) in half...I wonder if that made my stomach worse. Any suggestions ...I feel lousy with my stomach problems?

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 Thanks for the input...ambien is a sleeping pill. What do you use in your cereal....I did use soymilk but got sick of it; so I use lactaid milk (very little). I went off prevacid (for the stomach) because I was feeling great; but now I think I ate something at the casino near us which didn't agreed with me. I am feeling better after I took 30 mgs. of prevacid but I going to try the pillform of acidophilus. I still think a lot of a-fib is connected with stomach problems. Hope acidophilus works for you!! Do you take any prescription med for stomach problems? Also what do you take for your bones? Thanks again, Breta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
