[hopeful]

Hi Everyone,
I want to start taking COQ10. The only other supplements I take are R-Lipoic acid and multi-vitamin. I checked with my rheumo today and he said he does not object but keep it to a low dose. If you take this can you please let me know what dose and brand you take.

I also want to give you all an update on the new eating habits I have been doing now for about 6 weeks. I feel so much better energy and emotional wise. I eat mostly all fruits and veggies. I do eat fish and eggs. Most of what I eat is organic. I didn't do it to lose weight but I did lose 8 lbs. I think the weight loss is stopping which is good.

I still take the cymbalta, synthyroid and tramadol. I get IVIG Rx's also. I have begun to refuse any other meds. These seem to work for me so I don't want doctors pushing anything else on me. God Bless, them they mean, well but I am sick of meds that make me feel llike a completely different person.

My neuro did some strength testing and I have lost quite a bit of strength since this time last year. I did know this already. That is why I finally stopped working. The neuro wants to raise my IVIG to 3days a month. Right now I get once RX a month. They do help me. I would rather increase the IVIG then take any other meds. I have asked to have my b12 and D levels checked again. I will let you know the numbers after I get it done. I might need to add more supplements.

I am liking this natural business!
