Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 I deal with angina from mercury poisoning by taking CoQ10. I believe it should get better once enough mercury has been chelated out. I don't know about aspirin for angina.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 Co-q-10, carnitine, magnesium and arginine are good ways to relieve angina.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Good Morning Joanna, This *may* be of help, my Mum who may or may not have Mito is 73 and she has had angina for a few years...her Cardio. ran loads of heart tests and she has weak heart muscles but on one A&E admittance with the chest pain they managed to confirm Angina, I don't know many details about it or what is the criteria but do know that she has a sprsy thing which she squirts under her tongue when it happens ...I think it is caused by ischaemia maybe CAD... Sorry I can't be of more help but if she does have a type of mito then yes you obviously it is possible to have angina Gillian -- In , " bionicgirl_bionic " wrote: > > Does anyone know about angina and mitochondrial disease?

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 I've had intense chest pain, and it was due to erosive esophagitis. I'd suggest getting a GI follow-up to rule that out. I got this condition (and gastric ulcers) from frequent NSAID use when I hurt my back in 1992. I did go for a differential diagnosis to the cardiologist, and she checked out everything as well.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 FYI: http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Angina/Angina_WhatIs.html So if a doctor says you have angina, the implication is that it is heart disease, but testing would be needed to back that up.
