Guest guest Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Thanks, Kelli, for the reply in regards to my question on Cayenne. Interestingly enough, I am 28 and suffer from high blood pressure due to being tachycardic. Doctors have performed echocardiograms and found nothing wrong with my heart, however. I am told that its a condition that I simply have to live with, taking beta-blockers the rest of my life. I have been on these medications (Atenolol and recently switched to Toprol) for a little over three years. I understand that stopping these " cold turkey " is NOT a good idea, but I was wondering if there is a natural solution for this problem. I have a hard time thinking that I'll forever have to be on these meds, especiall at such a young age. Thanks All, McGuiness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 McGuiness - wow! I can see why you are looking for a more "natural solution" to this - with these drugs seems to me you are shortening your life for sure! Homeopathy is about as "natural" as you can get - were it me - this is where I would start Just because the allopathic doctor can't find anything wrong with you physically doesn't mean a thing - obviously there is something odd going on otherwise your doc would not have you taking all these different drugs...at SUCH a young age no less!! I'm 32 and I was raised with homeopathy - I know it works usually it is *not* a quick fix - it takes some time - but its well worth it in my book I'll take homeopathy anyday before I head to the allopathic doc and fill that rx with a homeopathic doctor that **knows what s/he is doing** (carefull there are some people around that claim to be a "homeopathic" and they are not) you can kick this - this isn't something you "just have to live with" Wags~~!
