Guest guest Posted September 14, 2002 Report Share Posted September 14, 2002 Hi I take Inderal for my MVP and it sure did help the symptoms. I have been on it for about 20 years. Before I went on it I had rapid heartbeat and many flutterings. If I stay away from caffeine it sure does make it work much better. I gave up the chocolate, tea and coffee. We use only decaff now.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2002 Report Share Posted September 14, 2002 Caffeine.....oh how I love it! But I have cut way back As I've been bumbling along for the past decade, I've tried Metabolife. Man, that really messes with the old ticker-eek. The MVP doesn't bother me much (pain wise) anymore. It's more of the bubbling that freaks me out. Oh, at one point, it was pretty bad--enough for me to nearly black out. I went to the cardiologist and he told me that since I've been diagnosed with MVP, I tend to feel the pain that normal people feel more intensely, because I'm more in tune with my heart. That my pain was normal and anything else was all in my head.....no ekg, echo or any other kind of test. If I had the courage then that I do now.....

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2002 Report Share Posted September 15, 2002 We have had men join this list from time to time but they seem to leave after a short time. I don't know if it is the women talk that we get into occasionally or what it is. I wish they would stay. This list has a lot of collective wisdom connected with it and could help him. Take care, Irene Close your eyes and you will see clearly Cease to listen and you will hear the truth. Taoist Poem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
