Guest guest Posted May 30, 2003 Report Share Posted May 30, 2003 Everyone who knows me recognizes how anti-drug I am - I'm a fanatic on the issue because DRUGS KILL. Just got this note in from a very sick man, who suffers massive heart problems, post traumatic stress disorder, diabetes, and a list a mile long of OTHER things...but please note his primary message here: BETA BLOCKERS CAN CAUSE DEPRESSION! They are given most often for blood pressure and coronary problems - we have SAFE, TIME TESTED AYURVEDIC REMEDIES that usually work FAR BETTER, but have NO DANGEROUS OR LIFE THREATENING SIDE EFFECTS. The answer? Learn more about what's out there and HOW TO HELP YOURSELF! I am NOT telling you to go off anything prescribed by a doctor - I AM telling you to learn more and make decisions as to what you will do LONG TERM about relying on drugs. I've been told numerous times that I'd be on drugs the rest of my life - what a crock! I take NOTHING, and will keep it that way except perhaps if I had a life threatening emergency. We need something really fast-acting under those conditions, and herbals are too slow usually. But long range I think they are the ONLY reasonable answer in most, but not all, cases. Read this and THINK HARD - if you are taking them yourself or know somebody who is - maybe you might need to learn more about taking control of your OWN health and not trusting somebody who gets paid whether you live or DIE??? Here's his sad story: Most everyone here knows how Drs almost killed me in 1997and have practiced on me in many ways that are negativebut this newest one is .... well ... reminds me of how i have to listen betterIn January the VA decided I need to be on beta blockersand warned me about a couple of side effectsmost of the warning was about how I could be tirederI "assumed" that they would not only take my heart into considerationbut all the rest of my body and also the PTSDNOT!!!All beta blockers can cause and/or enhance depressionI became sucidial before I figured out that is was the beta blocker-------------------- Linda SERIOUS ABOUT YOUR HEALTH?www.AyurvedicHerbsForHealth.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
