Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Hi Everyone!Somehow I feel compelled to respond to this, for I have had an experience like this myself in the past. In fact I have had several experiences too numerous to mention. At the risk of bringing back some really horrific memories, I am writing this in the hopes of saving some of you some of the grief that I experienced. If you have ever endured a car accident, you may be able to recollect that at the time you were barely aware of what was happening because it occurred so very quickly. A heart attack is very similar. It occurs so suddenly that you are caught completely unawares. The whole scenario recited in the preceding article is So ludicrous when you realize this more clearly. Although its not possible to put into words exactly what you feel at that moment (there are no words in the dictionary that would sufficiently describe it) it is enough to say that anyone with a heart attack is barely able to even catch their breath, let alone cough at that precise moment in time. I would seriously question the value of any of the preceding "advice" in the light of what I know and have experienced. Everyone's experience may vary somewhat although With an initial heart attack,I can vividly recall the heart pounding so hard that it literally enveloped my whole body, making it literally impossible to concentrate or even think.All your efforts are focused on trying to stay alive in order to take the next breath. If you open a window and start breathing as deeply as you can it may help, (unless of course you live in New York or some other busy metropolis, then I would keep them all tightly closed!). Although I've read portions of this specific article on several earlier occasions. I really question the wisdom of passing this type of info around. I must say, I don't agree with the allopathic "response" thats been given either! In my opinion, taking an aspirin isn't going to help anyone who's already in the 'throes' of a heart attack. All aspirindoes is it interferes with the blood clotting before it begins. In addition it also interferes with the prostaglandins which cause pain The already formed blood clots certainly aren't going to be affected by the aspirin you're taking at that moment and they're certainly not going to bring you out of this unscathed. There are other more natural remedies, which effectively work in short order, and without any of the accompanying adverse reactions that aspirin/NSAIDS has on the rest of your body. I would just like to remind everyone about the benefits of vitamin E and magnesium, for they are by far the MOST effective for the heart. If you happen to have some supplemental COq10 on hand at the time you feel something like this coming on, it will help you as well. Countless times I've managed with magnesium and E to strengthen and help my injured heart recover. Initially I also used coq10 for this. I believe coq10 and magnesium are the most essential short term. Vitamin E helps more over the long term, but if there is a problem, don't hesitate to take maximum doses of all of them, immediately at the time you're experiencing problems. For they all DO work synergistically to bring the heart function back. The magnesium corrects the lack of oxygen supply to the heart and brain and the vitamin E helps to correct it also to a certain extent. Hawthorne Berry strengthens the heart and artery muscles, even the heart valves as well. This works over the long term although you will see results within a week or two if taken really religiously! On another note, I have noticed that during these periods that I'm experiencing problems, it is important to keep hydrated! Blood serum thickens when you are dehydrated. For better blood flow to the heart and brain,ensure that you drink plenty of pure water. If you have some on hand, it may be beneficial to drink a little red wine each day as well. I frequently advise keeping the vitamin E, magnesium and coq10 by your nightstand where its more accessible. Let the aspirin stay in the medicine cabinet or on the store shelf where it belongs. Aspirin is a drug! All Drugs are chemically based and adversely affect the kidneys and liver, introducing more 'free radicals' into your body over time. Drugs just impose more stress on our hearts in the form of these unnatural chemicals. Any drug intrduces more free radicals into your blood stream. Free radicals just create more problems. They don't solve anything. Do not be deceived. Drugs are PART of the problem, not the solution! Blood clots are frequently caused by free radicals which are taken up by macrophages (WBCs) creating microclots! Allopathic medicine does not have the answers. I am sure of this one thing! All my answers were found in natural remedies. The sooner you discover this the better off you'll be. God Bless!
