need advice - coumadin use

UNIQUE E is the best Vitamin E available.

Also, use Carlson's fish oil for your blood.

Yes, and DO take Vitamin C, at least 6 grams a day at least.

now I have probs I did not have before.  My breathing is way off - even walking

to the bathroom now winds me.  And yesterday, my taste went off - just putting

food in my mouth gagged me and I had to spit it out, just lost my appetite and I

love to eat - or did.

off.  And I won't need bl.tests anymore if I am not taking it.  My blood went

way too thin on Thrs.....3.9.....and I know it is still thin as I am still

freezing.

Joe:

 

Two weeks ago they were amazed at what good health I was in.  I had bl.work the

day before starting this - it was excellent.

 

I don't take meds.....rarely anyways, and when I do it's a children's liquid

dose (last time almost 2 yrs. ago now).  I told that dr. that and asked him if

he could start me at a small dose and up it if it became necessary - to give my

body time to adjust and maybe avoid most of the side effects.  He said 'no.  I

go strictly by the book.  If there is a problem, I'll back it off''  I should

have walked out then, but we are in a strange area where we know no-one, and I

had phlebitis and blood clots (for the lst time - had just had a long, almost

non-stop car trip of 13.5 hours).

 

I know the dose was way too much for my body.  It hit me hard.  When I told him

the next morning, he just looked at me and said 'oh, a bl.clot must have broken

off and went to the lung' - so up to the hosp. for tests - they were near

perfect.  I know he knew I was having a bad reaction - all the signs were there,

but he just ignored it.  Day by day I was getting worse - but all he did was ask

a few questions and check my blood.  Then it got to this point - I can't breath,

I'm not eating.  I know most of the symptoms I have, others have had,

too....a lot get cold when their blood is too thin.  It's like ice running thru

the veins.

  And it scares me not to be able to breath or even walk across the room, plus

not having any appetite at all.

 

I don't take much Vit.E - only 200 mg. in the morning and 200mg at night (and

not that often) - it usually helps with breathing if combined with Vit.C.  There

was only one report over a 30 yr. time period on using Vit.E with coumadin.  One

person.  used 1200 mg. a day.  But testing after that showed for most people

even that amount was ok.

 

what is the Magnesium Citrate for?  That will help with this breathing?

 

I have treated myself naturally for over 30 yrs. - since I had my last cancer. 

My system just does not tolerate 'drugs'.

 

Thank you so much for responding.  I am just frightened, don't know how to get

myself back to where I was.  And not being able to breath only makes it worse.
