Most of us take the carnitine and CoQ10. I take Carnitor (prescription) and

Q-gel (CoQ10 made by Tishcon that is the most bio-available). I can't say

they give me more energy, but at the same time, I will not be without them,

as my mito has not progressed nearly as fast as before since being on them.

I have had to go off of them for a muscle biopsy and felt terrible without

them. I know they improve my mental energy if not my physical energy.

Hi Laurie, My naturopath has had me taking non-prescription

CoQ 10 (Lipoquinone-100mgs) and L-Carnitine (330mgs) for a

long time. I've been paying for then out of pocket (ARG, $$$$!!),

but they have been worth their weight in gold as far as how much

better I feel on them. I'm going to be seeing my MD soon and I'd

like ask her about my getting them in a form that insurance

would pay for , i.e., via prescription. You mentioned the Carnitor

is prescription only, so that would probably qualify. Do you know

if there's much difference between L-Carnitine and Carnitor? As

far as the Q-gel by Tishcon, is that prescription only , too? Any

major differences there either?

THANKS!

Anita

The Carnitor is a prescription so it is regulated by the FDA (if in the US),

so it is of known quality and strength. It is L-Carnitine, but in

prescription form. The over the counter kind may not be as pure or the same

strength from one batch to another. I'm sorry to say that not many of us can

get the CoQ10 covered by insurance. I get some of mine covered, but not by

prescription insurance. The Tishcon Q-gel has orphan drug status, so it is

worth trying to get it covered.

Good luck getting it all covered. It is expensive.

Laurie, Thank so much for your info about the Carnitor and Q-gel.

We

shall see how my insurance company reacts. I have an

insurance company

which has been surprisingly good to me over the years with my

Lyme

Disease needs, when other people's insurance companies

were rejecting

THEIR needs, so I hope my good forutune will continue.

I have been SO sorry to read of your van trials and tribulations.

Glad

you survived the latest of the " attack of the frankly, cranky, balky

van " . SO glad you FINALLY got home OK. You are one AMAZING

woman!

Hugs, Anita

Thanks for the compliment.

They have to replace the fuel pump which they hope to do tomorrow.

Get as much info as you can to present to your insurance. There are several

articles on the UMDF website and a good article on the MDA website.

Hi Sal,

I " probably " have a rare type of mito disorder called Pyruvate

Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiency (PDCD), so I'm not sure if

my experience with nutritional supplements is the norm. My

positive reaction to things like L-Carnitine and Co Q 10, as well

as a bunch of other nutritional supplements including

manganese, zinc, B1 injections, B complex injections, niacin,

alpha lipoic acid, taurine, and biotin work within an hour. If I

forget to take them and am even a few hours late, the jerking,

ataxia, tremors, muscle weakness, brain fog, supersensitivity top

sound (hyperacusis) etc., return with venegeance. I'm fortunate

to be able to get relief nutritionally because I'm almost a

universal reactor in that I can't take drugs, even OTC pain

relievers.

Best Wishes in your own health journey,

Anita

Thank you Anita, I also wish you the best what you described about the jerks

looks pretty much like what happens to me. I was wondering with your nutritional

diet does it control your jerks completely? In my case I still cant and is

quite frustrating but hopefully Carnitine & Qo10 will help.. Any advice would be

greatly appreciated.

Sal

I take the prescription " Lamictal " which almost completely controls my

myoclonus (jerking) unless I have really overdone it.

Hi Laurie,

I read about Lamictal it looks very much like what I'm on right now Epival and

Keppra which are also Anti-Epilepsy and help a bit controlling my myoclonus

(jerking) I will continue my journey with CoQ10 & L Carnitine and see how better

I feel, my goal is to try not taking any more drugs if possible?

Thanks

Sal

Hi Sal, In my case with PDCD (probably NOT your " average "

mito disease) I am lucky that the L-Carnitine and C0Q10, plus a

WIDE range of (specific for me via tests) nutritional

supplements including B 1 (thiamine) and B complex injections,

specific amino acids, and MANY minerals plus lots of organic

butter, " Udo Blen Oil (a high omega 3-6-9-fatty acid oil blend)

and a ketogenic diet generally keep me pretty much seizure, jerk,

and tremor free now. However, if I miss even one component by

even a couple of hours, or am under a lot of stress or physical

exercise without taking my " regime " more frequently, they all

return, so I know it's effective " symptom management " , but not

" cure " .

Interestingly, perhaps because PDCD can " screw up " sodium

ion channel function, GREEN veggies usually cause me to seize,

unless I eat them in very small quantities, perhaps because they

are so high in potassium and that throws the sodium/potassium

balance off. A heck of a thing for a vegetarian!!!

Best Wishes in your quest for help and answers that will work for

you.

Hi Anita,

Wow you really have to be disciplined I can tell your a strong woman to go

through all this! For me to take a few pills a day its a struggle I cant see

myself going through a strict diet plus injections like you. I guess I'm lucky

and should not complain as I can see how people like you can be an inspiration

for me to be more disciplined.

Talk to you soon Anita,

Sal

Hi Sal, Thanks for the kind words!

Not sure " disciplined " OR " strong " apply. I suspect " desperate

with a strong will to live " might .

By essentially having to " go it alone " without a lot of positive

traditional MD input (other than 1st- it's all in your head; then- we

don't know what's wrong with you , live with it, and you'll probably

get get sicker)...... I've been forced to explore a lot of other healing

alternatives, some of which lead me to nutritionally savvy

alternative/integrated medicine MD's and naturopaths.

I am so blessed to have my symptoms of 22 years to be

gradually improving over the past several years on my nutritional

regime. Now, with the help of some wonderful and generous

mitos I am learning more about the 'why " .

Healing Best Wishes,

Anita
