I'm supposed to start taking a statin but have been reading where a statin may exacerbate MG. Has that happened to anyone? So far, I have OMG and I'm hoping it won't get worse. Would appreciate any input regarding statins and MG. Thanks. ranna
you are right, statins will exacerbate mg, i know as my endo have told me i should, whicc i rejected totaly, they are alternatives and beleive me theey work , i am one to prove it, and dont have to worry about your health
when in 2011 got mg. the amount of drugs where exorbitantes, mestidone 980mgs, dayly, prednisone 195mgs dayli. andthese meds will create hi amount of colesterol, blood sugars, mood changes and others,
so i had to find another alternative than statins, and thanks to the steps i took my blood sugars are aat 95/ cholesrerol about70. and to tell you the truth, i am feeling great
so dont hesitate to do the right things, i stil take mestidone 30mgs, day, prednisone 5 mgs. every other day,but the rest is history
best of luck Andre
Andre, what steps did you take exactly to lower your cholesterol,?
I already eat organic, whole foods with no processed foods or dairy. Also no red meat or alcohol
what i did was using alternative naturals,
there is a tree original to india and western asia called MORINGA, you can ceck that in the internet, the product is MORINGA TREE LEAVES IN POWDER,.
following the instructions i was able in 3 weeks to lower my sugars and cholesterol to about 115 ,has my lab tests reflected, after 1 1/2 month my stats showed that they where at 93, my endo was amaized of the body response and so was i.
also my wife start taken it to controlhers, wich was 145, it got regulated in 2 months,
we are older people and firm belivers in when the sintetic meds do not work to your benefit it is time to go another route
the moringa leafs powder come in one pond pouch, it can be purchase at the following site www.nutricargo.com
the cost is about$30.00 just follow the instrutions, if needed you can let me know
best of luck Andre
newmon,
Like you I try to eat low sugar, low carb (Im prediabetic), and I don't want that to get worse, along with trying to keep the MG stable. So, any alternative to a statin, especially if it is more natural is a plus.
Much appreciated for all the help. ranna
this is for both of you, i found the best way to take the moringa , and found it was tthe fates way to activate results
so i am going to explain the way to proceed
since i take electrolites i have bottles that are 32oz, fill water to the neck of the bottle, take a tea spoon, filled ,roundly and put in the bottle,,
check it well and set in the refrigerator
now the most important, take 2 1/2 0z in the morning and repit in the evening
i take it early in the morning (about 7am) and about 9.pm, right in beetwen food thus it act more effetively. at least with me
take it for about 2 months, then give yourself a break of 2 weeks, then another 2 months and have taken your stats. you will see a big difference from prior stats
please let me know your progress
best of luck Andre
