I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins. He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food. I only need to stop them for a couple of days. He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

Thank you for responding and for prayers. So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine. You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison. I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of. Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including...

OK, that's. a relief. thank you.

After confirmed diagnosis 13 years ago my gastro insists on periodic endoscopies every 3 years to be sure I'm as gluten-free as I think I am. I come out perfectly clean. Bob's Red Mill gluten-free products have been my go-to, but they are not listed. I'm curious as to why.

This is difficult for me to deal with. B complex is what stands between me and migraines. Whenever I stop B for just a few days, I get a migraine. All my adult life I would get a violent migraine for 3 days like clockwork until a doctor told me to try B complex and it worked. The only time I get a migraine is when I've run out of B. This has worked for...

Yes, I had COVID for 10 days thought I recovered like EV1 else, but suddenly had A-fib, hospitalized for 3 days, and now taking Flecainide 2X daily. Long C also ruined my once excellent metabolism. I do take B 50, and my bloodwork is always very good.

My heart went into A-Fib following my recovery from Covid. It is now known that Covid is a catalyst for Long Haulers syndrome. In Dec 2022 I missed the last booster until I was already incubating COVID. Became ill 5 days after the shot. I thought I was completely well 10 / 12 days later, felt great. Then collapsed on Feb 17, 2023 as my formerly perfect heart...

For me, with osteoporosis, Celiac and more than 1 heart condition, the slower, safer route is preferable. I'm on 5 meds per day. Too much of anything can disturb absorption of this or that. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. I'm gone for a few days.

This is what my Cardiologist prescribed for my weight. My husband is prescribed 10,000 units. When I say prescribed I do not mean a prescription is needed, just that the 2 respective dosages are what he ordered according to our size/weight. My cardiologist is accepted as one of Houston's leading cardiologists.

My cardio did not hand me a study. He just determined the dose for my size/weight. Here is one that is 4 days old: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/how-much-vitamin-d-is-too-much This is the D study: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/vitamin-d-toxicity/faq-20058108 This is a boring...

Thank you. I'll run it by him on my next visit.

Kitty, Be careful with massive transfusions of D, it's dangerous per my cardiologist. Your note made me confirm and he's right. I found this article called: Too much vitamin D may harm bones, not help - Harvard Health The study was released on Dec 1, 2019 · and appeared in the Aug. 27 issue of JAMA which found that, compared with people ...

I take all vitamins and supplements. My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks. He gives me complete blood work every 6 months. He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s. He wants them in low 80s. I take 5,000 IU's daily. With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years. It builds very slowly. As...

I never had muscle twitching that I would relate to Celiac Disease (celiac disease). However, I now have Long Covid and muscle twitching, burning, and other issues cropped up with that. Predating all was restless leg syndrome (RLS). Are you talking about RLS? I've had that since '99. It gets progressively worse.
