Re: Re: Echocardiogram Results..question

[Guest guest]

I had an extensive heart work-up a year ago including med induced stress

test and non invasive heart cath, 24 hr halter monitor and echo. My previous EF

levels have been around 55%. I've been told to see a heart failure specialist.

Dr. Cohen has me on 100 mg 3x daily.

Yes, It's the Q gel from Epic(Tischon) I'm actually waiting for my

delivery now. I get the economy size of 1000 at a time. I'm faxing the results

to

Dr. Cohen and taking a copy with me to NY for Dr. Hirano to see. I think my

dose is just pretty much based on my weight of 71 pounds. I don't know for

sure though. Thanks for your idea. Sounds like something easy enough to try.

Very interesting and encouraging. Thanks for sharing Laurie.

How much CoQ10 are you taking if you are taking it?

That seems like a very low dose. Is it Q-Gel or a different brand? I

am only asking as CoQ10 is used for CHF and has really helped a lot of

people. Maybe you can somehow get the results to him (Dr. Cohen) and

ask him if you could try increasing your dose.

Hugs,

My mother had cardiomyopathy and yet once on Q-gel (I think it was 180 mg 3

times a day), her heart continued to be strong after many strokes and death.

The only thing we can attribute it to is the CoQ10.

Dr. Simpson is a big believer in higher doses of CoQ than many doctors. He

feels that for some of us, we are throwing our money down the toilet with

the low doses. It is only the opinion of one doctor, but it has helped me.
