CureYourBody.com is excited to announce the launch of
its new forums. The next several months will be critical to setting up the
forums the way you want them to be. So
if you feel we should add more categories or sub forums, please let us know.
We'll add sub forums on our own as well, if we feel a
large number of posts are being made on a specific topic. For example, "Colon Cleansing" was added as a sub forum to the Gastroenterology forum since there seems
to be a lot of posts for that specific subject.
Does anyone know of a "safe" supplement for energy raising that works with Warfarin. Most things I've seen contain Ginsing and my research says that Ginsing and Warfarin aren't particularly good together.
Its proven that Ginseng containing medications do not go well with the blood thinners such as warfarin and at the same time long term intake of blood thinning medications such as warfarin is also not advocated. There are several chinese herbs that have no interaction with warfarin while can increase your stamina. You can just try the Licorice or even the Atractylodes lancea or Cang Zhu. They alleviate the fatigue you must be experiencing. But make sure you shopped and got the purest form of these herbs.
Thanks HealthFreak, I'll look further into your suggestions.
Dr. Hauser, I have recurring deep vein thombosis. First set - both lower legs - was discovered 3 days after my second baby was born. I had warfarin for 3 months, then it was stopped. The DVTs both returned about 4 months after the medication stopped. For the present, I'm a "lifer" on the drug.
The fatigue I have is chronic. It's the kind where you do any kind of activity that's over what you have in your "energy envelope" and you end up in bed for 2 days. I'm doing better because I am being more pro-active about things - you get a point where you are desperate enough to do anything that will kill or cure you - but I still find that fatigue stops me from doing so much "normal life" stuff associated with raising young children.
