What can possibly go wrong? If I take a single occasional dose of PDE5 inhibitor I immediately have these issues: headache, stuffy nose, pain in my back, arms and legs, blurry vision, ringing in the ears, and indigestion. Why does every medication do more harm than good?

    My dad had a mild stroke over a year ago. In hospital they gave him Eliquis and a 30 day supply, plus a prescription for after the 30 days. I took him to have it filled and it was going to be $800.00 per month. Needless to say he can't afford it. He is 86 years old and we along with his doctor opted to not take a blood thinner other that low dose aspirin. The price of new pharmaceuticals is off the charts. 😡

      That is one reason why my partner who is on blood thinners due to Deep Vein Thrombosis continues to take warfarin. It is incredibly affordable. He doesn't want to go on the more expensive drug and then find that he can't get it for affordability reasons. I'm surprised they did not allow him to take the warfarin for a short time but perhaps warfarin has a longer period of time before it starts working or perhaps they didn't want to have him coming in for testing every 2-4 weeks.

    Hello Dr we are in Thailand my husband had a heart attack ( on the table after severe indigestion all day) about 10 yrs ago, no damage and no restrictions afterwards. The usual meds for 4-6 months then we requested no more as he was unable to function. The statins were the worse. The Dr agreed. ( this was in San Diego) then Last yr a a check up here in Thailand had the echo done and nothing serious there. Yet the cardiologist we saw prescribed 4 different meds and a very strong blood thinner. My husband and I play singles tennis eat 85% whole food diet stretch regularly etc. BP is good though at that time is was a bit high 134/70 it is usually 128/70. We were shocked at the load of drugs given. We refused them and never went back. It was one of the most prestigious government hospitals here in Bangkok. He would have been worse off had he taken the meds prescribed Thank you for you time

      Family member had a stroke a year ago; otherwise very, very healthy before then and since then. Took meds as prescribed by doctor for a while. Did not like the idea of having 'drug' dependence so self-weaned after just a few months. Now taking only supplements and seemingly perfect health has returned with no side effects whatsoever. We all feel like God healed him and that the stroke was due to multiple stresses that came along almost simultaneously. It is possible that a diet change for you or supplements or some other type of care as directed by a holistic doctor will be all that you need. Consider this possibility before taking any drastic measures one way or the other.

    I had an initial episode of afib with RVR and thought I was dying when I was 63. Turned out my kidneys were throwing off potassium and magnesium for no apparent reason. Once that was corrected, I would only have an episode occasionally (like, 2x/yr) after exercise. I could always get it to stop with hydration and more K and Mg. I was very symptomatic, so I know when I’m in it plus wear an Apple Watch. My cardiologist wanted to put me on Eliquist. I refused. He fired me. Ten years later, I haven’t had an episode in at least three years. For me, the risks of a blood thinner outweighed the benefit.

I could hardly blame them, as they were swamped with patients and their families. How could they have time to investigate the latest studies and research? They were just following the orders handed down to them from the big "associations" that are in cahoots with the big pharmas. The hospital higher-ups don't want to get in trouble, so they rather stick to the old protocols, and just make money through more procedures and prescriptions!

    There seem to be many other factors and illnesses as well as deficiencies that produce AFib. Two doctors have tried to pressure me into using the blood thinners. Eventually I gave in but within a month I was convinced that it was making me very ill. It took over another month for the drugs to clear out of my body. I have explained to them that the possibility that I have my family disease ( a rare form of pernicious anemia) that produces not only the AFib , but also the lack of feeling firstly in extremities and then a complete take over of the body and brain. I cannot get the diagnosis treatment I need because the doctors are so obsessed with stroke. Although my Grandfather and Mother both died eventually from the disease and I have several cousins with it, no one has had strokes. My Mother came to live with us when we moved from England (where she was treated successfully for years) but the doctors refused to believe her English doctors diagnosis and treatment and gave her only a panacea because obviously they thought her obsessive. My father tried to defend her but she did not get the correct medication. I am still angry and I hope to move to Europe where I may get proper treatment before it is too late. Blood thinners are not for everyone .

I have AFIB and don't take anything accept nattokinase and suffered very little from the ischemic stroke, I was lucky. But, I don't skip healthy eating and cook my own food ( don't eat in restaurants) and don't skip my daily exercise. Of course I am still young, 82 and don't have many friends, their all dead.

    Warfarin has only a 1.95% absolute risk reduction with its nasty side effects... but is sold based on being 95% (relative risk reduction) better than aspirin. It's sad when there are no honest discussions about absolute risk reduction vs. relative risk reduction and the fact that side effects have a greater chance to show the longer someone is on a medication.

    My dad had Afib and was on Coumadin. Later on, he developed a brain abscess which was misdiagnosed as a stroke. The double edge sword here is they needed to remove the abscess but in order to do surgery, they had to thicken his blood. Can you see where we're headed here?
    The surgery was a success but 2 weeks later, he had a brainstem stroke and was paralyzed from the neck down with a feeding tube. Clots of course formed when they stopped the blood thinner for surgery. He passed 6 weeks later. In his case, it was a blessing because, I know wouldn't have wanted to live years like that. He was 79.

I ski and bicycle too fast. I think the medical evidence supports my decision for skip the anticoagulants. (TRENDS study among others) Should I develop permanent a fib I might have to do something but I would choose ablation + Watchman procedure so I could continue an active life free of the very real bleeding caused by all anticoaagulants.
    Eliquis and Xarelto are outrageously priced. Why? Because Big Pharma has paid doctors, especially cardiologists, enormous ammounts to promote it over Coumadin. Coumadin is just as safe and 1/100th the cost. They are equally safe and effective but Big Pharma can trot out a couple of studies paid to promote their drugs. There are no cost benefit studies to support this because they know they'd lose.

    I had it. Found out the cause in myself: Immune system dysfunction. I had to cut many foods from my diet and it went away completely. Also taking Vit D3, K2, Mg, Zn daily on top of an antihistamine (cetirizine hydrochloride - 10mg). This all helps a ton. It's given me my life back.
    EDIT: P.S. I suffered several mini-strokes, one of which made me completely lose hearing in my right ear for several weeks. It never went fully back to normal. NHS didn't help at all. They misdiagnosed my immune system dysfunction for years.

    • @puggirl415
      @puggirl415 Месяц назад +2

      So you took K2 to heal this? I'm interested because K2 is such an important nutrient but the doctors warn against vitamin K if you are on blood thinners. The thing is they never seem to differentiate between K1 and K2. I think K1 is dangerous and can cause clotting but I think K2 may not be. I've never found anyone to confirm this but K2 helps with calcium distribution not blood clotting as far as I know. I'd love to know why you took K2 to heal from Afib. I read that it was an immune system dysfunction. Were you worried about the K2 causing clotting while you took it to heal yourself?

    • @PrincipalAudio
      @PrincipalAudio Месяц назад +2

      ​@@puggirl415 I think both improve the action of clotting, but the true cause of clotting needs to be identified and addressed.
      In my case, the clotting was caused by poor circulation, caused by irregular heartbeats, caused by a dysfunctional immune system (v*ccine damage). As soon as I cut foods that were bad for me, the irregular heartbeats went away, meaning that the risk of clotting causing strokes also went away.
      Vitamin K (in K1 or K2) won't be an issue so long as you cure the root cause of the clot risk.
      In my case, the Vitmain D3 helped calm my immune system by boosting my 25(OH)D levels. The daily anti-histamine (cetirizine) also help against any potentially allergic reactions, and they don't seem to cause any side-effects in me. Not recommended unless anyone has an immune system disorder, though.
      The reason I take K2 is because I am taking higher dose D3 (13,000 IU). K2 is a necessary co-factor in helping transport calcium away from soft tissues, which prevents calcification of arteries.
      It's one of those paradoxes. K2 = enhances blood clotting, but K2 also prevents arterial plaquing with calcium deposits to a certain degree. So do you take it to prevent arterial plaquing at the cost of increasing blood clotting risk? Or do you avoid it and risk arterial plaque buildup due to calcium deposits not being transported away from soft tissues? That's something you have to decide yourself (with the advice of a medical professional). :)

Slapped on a raft of things after a lifetime of never taking anything other than vitamins and minerals as recommended by my kinesiologist. 2 of the so-called heart support drugs gave me the most appalling aches and pains in joints and muscles - couldn't even open the top of the milk carton, the diuretic gave me gout which I had never had before and never want again, the blood thinners gave me nosebleeds and vaginal bleeding (I am 72 and well past that!) so I stopped taking them by degrees in spite of protestations from the medics that none of it could possibly be caused by the meds . The result of stopping them - No pains, no aches, no bleeding unexpectedly. I now take Quercetin, Magnesium and Krill oil - I also take D3/K2 . . . .all of these help to thin the blood so if you are on thinners you shouldn't take them - just make matters worse. Do your own research. A good varied diet, lots of water and a good walk every day all help as well as keeping inflammation down. Boswellia with Turmeric is good for that.

    After forced jab by threats of losing a 20+ yr career within 3 days if not complying (detective California ) husband congestive heart failure, AFIB, ejection fraction 25%.. after 5 days in the hospital and no medications working they did cardioversion.. Dr wouldn’t even discuss prognosis when asked , just that the procedure will work for some time.. but afib will come back 😏
    he’s only 41 yrs old…
    Before the jab he was an athlete, marathon runner, unbelievable pitcher.. now can barely walk to the mailbox without being out of breath sounding like he’s having an asthma attack 😠

    I am having to take Apixaban following a serious blood clot in my left leg which developed last year. I was told by the hospital, surprisingly, that the Covid vaccination was the probable cause as I did not meet the usual criteria for it developing.

    I am a 69 year old man with afib. Several doctors have wanted me to start an anticoagulant. After reviewing my CHA2DS2-VASC score and my HAS BLED score, I have a much higher risk of a major bleed on an anticoagulant than my risk of a stroke without an anticoagulant. I told my doctor and he told me I'm not supposed to know about that.

    I was told when I was in my mid 40s and had a lot of palpation's but was told it was harmless and just ignore it. It did settle down eventually.

    The cause of this is the massive amount of electrical pollution in air. The body is an electrical system and these unnatural frequencies are disturbing the signaling of the heart. This causes major stress on the cells. A great book to read is "Why are you sick? How to reclaim your health with the ultimatehealthmodel ". This explains it all.

      EMF pollution is at an all-time high. Modern medicine is in denial about many things and drugs are their solution to every ailment.
