Re: COQ10

May 15, 2003

Sandy,

Just saw this message of yours about the COQ10. I had heard that

it's good for the heart, but didn't know it might help with energy!

Next time I go to the vitamin store I think I'll get some and try

it. I'll let you know if it brings me the same results.

Thanks,

Chris

> Betty, I dunno if this will help you any, but it's worth a try. I

saw that CO-Q10 from the pharmacy was for energy, so I started taking

it about 3 weeks ago. I noticed by two weeks of taking one capsule 3

times a day, usually with a meal, that I was not near as tired as I

normally was. I'm also hyperT, but have been overdosed on

Methimazole, so my Dr cut me back to 20 mgs from 30mgs. It may be

coincidence, but it's sure made a difference in how I feel, and I've

actually managed to feel half way decent. I also added some Vit C,

and Vit B, since then, but in the beginning it was strictly the CO-

Q10 and my Methimazole along with Atenolol.

they've found that it's helped them any. I do know that when I

forgot to take it, I was more tired than normal, and started writing

myself a note to be sure I take it (short memory here) lol. I also

don't sound so short winded when I take the CO-Q10 so that's an added

plus for me. I was actually able to work outside Saturday before

last in the yard helping hubby do some things and wasn't completely

worn out either? So, I'm guessing it's not a bad thing to add to my

system.

I can sure tell the difference when I quit taking it. I just

happened to stumble on it from 's website and figured why not give it a

try. In two weeks, I was able to work outside in the yard which is

something I've not done in at least 2 yrs. lol. I still find myself not

overdoing it since I've had the Graves/HyperT, cuz I will pay for it

dearly, but at least this helps me.

Why will your Dr not give you ATD's? I also take Atenolol for the

palpitations as well as for my blood pressure which went up several years

back with no explanation cept for my weight gain. I have been on

Methimazole for almost 2 yrs or so now but we're reducing it slowly but

surely over the next year on a maintenance amt (he says 5 mgs). :-)
