Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 gracia- you take a very high dose of iodine- that is NOT recommended by any qualified medical provider as a starting dose. One should always start low and go slow when starting a new supplement or medication. YOU have NO idea how she will react to a high dose of iodine- it is SAFER to start low and slowly increase her dose so that her body can adjust to the supplement. as a NP with extensive medical education- I would NEVER start a person out on a high dose of anything until I knew how they were going to react to it.

Sometimes they wake me up in the middle of the night, and I have to actually very consciously make myself relax for 5-10 minutes before my heart rate comes down again and I can get back to sleep. I take a B-Complex (NatureMade) supplement and also Magnesium, every day. I may up the Magnesium from one table a day to two; see if that helps. The B-Complex I take seems to have a LOT of beneficial B's in it. I'd hate to have to take more. Here's what is in it: Thiamin (B1) -- 50 mg Riboflavin (B2) -- 50 mg Niacin (B3) -- 50 mg Vitamin B6 -- 50 mg Folate,Folic Acid,Folacin --- 400 mcg Vitamin B12 50 mcg Biotin 50 mcg Pantothenic acid 50 mg Thoughts, anyone? Also, I have recently quit drinking, but I don't know if that has anything to do with the heart palpitations. I was not a heavy drinker: 1-2 glasses of wine a day, 5-6 days a week. I cut down slowly, too: didn't just stop cold turkey. --Diane --- flatwoodfarms <marlum@...> wrote: > I pretty much take the supplements recommended by > at > endfatigue.com.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Hello all, My mother was taking LDN for a few months, and had to quit due to heart palpitations - pounding heart in the middle of the night that frightened her. This happened while on 3mg for the first month, and continued throughout, when increasing to 4.5mg as well. She also had wild dreams which did not calm down after a couple of weeks. She experienced some mild relief from Lupus symptoms, which have resumed since quitting. She'd love to be able to troubleshoot what was the issue. Any advice? Thanks, Durga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 --- Hopefully this info helps you, I also have palpatations due to die off-weird I know but I do and Ive heard of other people experiencing this too Sylvia In , " leesaholz " <leesaholz@...> wrote: > > Hi Bee, > Thanks for your last answer to my post about Sjogrens and lupus.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I have those also as well as tachycardia. I have had many many heart tests done also. I was told that I would get lupus in two years by 2 medical doctors also. Missy > > Hi Bee, > Thanks for your last answer to my post about Sjogrens and lupus.
