Guest guest Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Thanks Alice, Laurie and Sheila for some input. Guess I should have been more specific. I am on the mito cocktail but was on that before seeing s. He recommended a few other specialists to check on my condition, but nothing else in the way of a treatment. He felt that my blood tests may not show the correct type of mito although he felt that I had it. He also felt that determining the exact type of mito did not increase treatment choices. ( I know that discussion has been posted before.) I was doing pretty well until undergoing radiation treatments for (very early) breast cancer over a year ago. No chemo needed and the cancer is gone, but my energy and stamina plummeted leaving me quite disabled now. Even leaving the house for doctors appts is difficult. All of my doctors, including s, feel that the souce of my situation is the effect of radiation on the mito but have no ideas on how to return me to my pre-radiation condition. My family doctor has tried nutritional IV's and shots of adenosine phosphate, ( anyone else trying that?) but s had no ideas. I see him again in late May and just hoping to hear about some other experiences before my appt. Thanks, Marjette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
