How Do I Get My Ankles To Stop Swelling?

Are You Concerned About Metoprolol Side Effects?

pill bottle

What’s in your little yellow bottle?

When you go to the doctor, the “help” he/she offers usually comes in a little yellow bottle.

If you are like most people, you take what your doctor gives you.

Do you wonder if it’s the right option, or do you just take the pill?

It’s a really good idea to at least check out the side effects for the drug you have just been given BEFORE you swallow it!

Should you be concerned about Metoprolol side effects or would you rather let your doctor worry about that?

I mean, your doctor wouldn’t give you a drug that would cause you harm, would he/she?

It’s easy to trust your doctor because you know that your doctor knows more than you do.

The problem is that your doctor has been educated by an educational system with incredible bias built in.  The drug companies that subsidize your doctor’s education are invested in making sure that your doctor’s job is to drug your symptoms!

Many doctors feel fearful to even tell you that nutrition is one choice for managing your symptoms.  Nutrition is MUCH safer than drugs and the side effects that come with them, so why so much concern about nutritional advice?

The fear of nutrition is not about your well being, it’s about their liability.

Your doctor isn’t liable if the drug he (or she) gives you KILLS you, but he is worried that he may risk his livelihood by giving you solid harmless advice.

The drug companies as well as the corn refiners want you to “ask your doctor” for advice.

Yet, clinical nutritionists who should know nutritional facts much better than any other doctor are threatened to cease and desist from telling you the bitter truth.

Drugging symptoms is not removing cause and high fructose corn syrup is NOT corn sugar, it is poison.  Those are 2 facts your Clinical Nutritionist can tell you are true, but they will be threatened when they say it!

The truth will suppress profits and the powers that be know it.

Today I want to talk to you about a drug that I see so often that it concerns me.

Do you take Metoprolol?

You need to know all the facts if you do.

After reading the following information re-posted from another web site, you may decide you’d like to explore alternatives before agreeing to drug yourself with Metoprolol.

Swing Dance History

Do You Have Swing Dance History That Brings a Smile To Your Face?

It’s already Sunday and we are heading into a new week.

Did the holiday turn your schedule upside down last week?

Falling mid week the way it did messed with the entire week.

The 4th of July was also my birthday.Swing Dance History

And this year my celebration was bittersweet.

For many years, my family and I have gone to the Marin County Fair to celebrate my birthday.

It’s a great place to celebrate because the Preservation Jazz Hall Band performs, and it’s always guaranteed that swing dancers will show up and have a great time.

With my Swing Dance History, it’s the perfect place to celebrate another year!

Since my divorce I have gone each year with my youngest daughter.

This year, my ex-wife was planning to go with friends and my teen-aged stepdaughter and called asking us to meet them there.

I had my reservations about it – would it be awkward? would my ex want to dance with me? should I accept? Continue reading Do You Have Swing Dance History That Brings a Smile To Your Face?

Is Community Spirit Pain Reliever Without Heart Risk?

How was your fourth of July holiday for 2012?

Mine has caused a lot of reflection.

I’ve shared a couple emotional posts on past Independence Day celebrations here on Heart Failure Solutions.

I’m actually grateful to have those articles as a record of some very happy memories.

In years past our fourth of July celebration has definitely been pain reliever without heart risk.

Pain meds increase your risk of heart failure, but community spirit has the power to keep you well and reduce your pain without drugs!

Pain relievers cause constipation and further ALL disease processes!  It isn’t just your heart risk you need to be concerned about!

Have you ever heard the expression:  “Death begins in the bowel” … ?

Staying connected with your community, getting active outdoors, living with passion and purpose are very specific ways you can attend to your pain level so that you can resort to drugging your pain far less often.  If you don’t believe that, give it a good honest effort.  Just don’t get discouraged too quickly.  Some events are more uplifting than others, but community  is as much about YOU as it is about your neighbors.  Just keep showing up.

The fourth of July parade in your community is one opportunity to show up.

 

This year my troops were gearing up for the celebration bright and early.  Our preparation at home in the morning felt like it does every year. 

 Our pace was hectic and we left our breakfast mess, so it felt like a traditional fourth of July morning!  haha!

Where Did Asthma Come From?

Where Did Asthma Come From?

Never had asthma when you were younger, but now your doctor tells you you’ve got asthma?Where Did Asthma Come From?

How’s your energy level?

Are you sleeping well?

Do you have a moist cough?

Do you wake at night gasping for breath?

Have you had increased urination lately?

Did your doctor ask you those questions when he/she diagnosed you with asthma?

Because each of those questions has the potential to help your doctor figure out what is causing your wheeze.

All the questions your doctor asks you are intended to be used to “diagnose” your problem.

During “Life Breath Coaching” I teach you to hold a vision of yourself as whole, healthy, and vibrant, while rejecting all labels.

I am not fond of diagnosis in general.  Labeling your dis-ease is often NOT helpful!

Now, when the diagnosis you receive is actually a MIS-diagnosis, the injury is compounded immeasurably!

If your asthma diagnosis is actually heart failure, Continue reading Where Did Asthma Come From?

Could Doctor Who Online Enrich Your Life?

You might think that my love for all things British has something to do with why I love “Doctor Who” so much, but this glorious master-piece of art is filled with so much “epicness” that no loyalty to Britain is required!

For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, Doctor Who is Continue reading Could Doctor Who Online Enrich Your Life?

Is The Heart Bypass Surgery Model Of Care Responsible For An Epidemic Of Heart Failure?

an epidemic of heart failure
Heart disease is killing us more than everything else combined. 

An epidemic of heart failure is responsible for the soaring death count!

If you are like most people, you are likely to listen to the medical merchants who will want to manage your heart disease with medical intervention every 10 years.

Yes! Every 10 years.

Coronary artery bypass surgery statistically needs to be repeated every 10 years.

Surgically managing your disease means Continue reading Is The Heart Bypass Surgery Model Of Care Responsible For An Epidemic Of Heart Failure?
