Is It The Chicken/egg Conundrum?

A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭
Canton, OH

Reading the "symptoms regarding A-Fib & the side affects [symptoms] of the medications to address A-Fib. They are practically identical? I was diagnosed with A-Fib by a cardiology practice years after first PCP and Medicare home visit nurse noticed indications. I felt fine, no fatigue, light headedness, nausea or the other warning signs until 3 different professionals in the practice each wrote a prescription to treat my condition. After taking the medications ordered I experienced all the side… read more

Maybe if you say you are wanting a second opinion they will see you.

I had Cholesterol, Hypertension, AFib, and Diabetes caused by a water retention tablet the doctor gave to me. My tablets were becoming more and more expensive, and I was feeling worse all the time, statins are the biggest cause of this.
Anyway, I had aching joints all the time every 4 hours I would sweat badly, I would feel lightheaded, if I stood up to fast I'd lose my balance be dizzy for 20 seconds. always feeling tired with no energy.
I asked my cardiologist what would happen to me if I were to take Ginger, Garlic, Turmeric, Cinnamon, Honey, he did not answer me, thus proving that all these ingredients will work for my condition, in February of 2022 I stopped all my meds and never looked back.
On the 7th February 2023 my appointment with my cardiologist went very well saying my heart was in very good shape according to the sonar everything was working well, the ECG excellent no problem.
Today feeling excellent and getting stronger every day just want to say to people whenever you go to a doctor, they always ask what's wrong you, they had studied for 4-7 years for this, and they ask what they can do for you instead of doing their job what they had trained for by checking all your vital signs maybe doing blood tests.
Anyway, Garlic is still the best healing vegetable in the world use it.
Ginger, Garlic and Turmeric and Cinnamon used every day you will see a difference in your health.
Cut pieces and swallow them as you would do your tablets, good luck and God bless.

I had these issues when I was not satisfied with my first Cardiologists. I was actually told on the phone whilst trying to get into a new one by several practices that they would not take a patient who already had been seeing another Cardiologists it was insane. Luckily I finally did find one but lordy it was an ordeal

@A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member,
Finding the cardiologist was super important. I don't know where you are but here i can switch doctors any time I feel they are not working in my best interest. Your hospital has a listing of doctors in every field of medicine. I would first look for an internal medicine specialist as my regular doctor. Then that doctor will look for and recommend the best doctor for you and your conditions.
Take care,
Robin

I was prescribed a blood thinner that I didn't want to take but did. I ended up in the hospital with rectal bleeding, a side effect of the blood thinner. I no longer take it. What works for someone else won't work for me. . .. we're all different.
