Well I have a new prob. My blood pressure is sky high. its 142/104 and I do need to lose weight, but my diet is good and I'm running around constantly and recently lost ten pounds, and still my blood pressure is horrible. I read in a book by Elizabeth Plourde (Hysterectomy and Ovary Removal) that its because the uterus produces a chemical that helps regulate blood pressure and even if you keep your ovaries (I have mine) that your bp can stay high. She says that what helped her was a supplement called CoQ10 - Have any of you tried this? Its over the counter, appears safe, but just wondering. Thanks Lily

I am now not on any hormones and my BP is back to normal. I think it might have been the estrogen for me or something. I have taken COQ10 for heart palpatations. I am not sure it did any good and I ended up cutting out sugar from my diet which stopped the palps and I lost 10 lbs in the process. I have heard COQ10 touted as the next best thing since sliced bread but I am not sure. I do not think it is harmful, but have to admit I don't know much about it.

I just found that one and thought, wait a minute, is this one going to be closed? I've been away for a while. I need to start treadmilling again, that helped get my bp down before (after surgery it was high and I was monitored for a while but I started treadmilling daily and my bp went to a high normal range but have since stopped treadmilling - eek must start again.) I dont eat sugar and my bp is still high (I am hypoglycemic and so just dont eat it or any high carb foods at all.) I just recently lost ten pounds and my bp is still high. So I thought well, maybe CoQ10 might help. I got some today and just took one. I'll check my bp in a week and see if it helped. Lily

Hyster Health is an active forum for now. It was great hearing from you. Let me know how it goes with the coq10, I am taking fish oil and have been for some time. I think it is also supposed to be good for cardio health hugs Becky in OHIO LAVH/BSO 10-99 Becky's Garden www.purevolume.com/rockonml If you have been helped by Hyster Home.

Rhonda is the admin over there, if you need help ask her. good luck Becky in OHIO LAVH/BSO 10-99 Becky's Garden www.purevolume.com/rockonml If you have been helped by Hyster Home.
