Same here. I had to spend some time on Google looking up things I have never heard of.

About a year ago. I was having high blood pressure, chest pressure, aching down my arms, light headedness and weakness in all four extremities.
I went to a Cardiologist, who wanted to do a nuclear stress test and CT scan (with contrast dye) in spite the fact that I had an anaphylactic reaction to CT dye in the past.
I also told her I have MCS (multiple chemical sensitivity). She didn't care. She was determined to do the tests.
So, I got online and found Dr. Peter Langsjoen (in Tyler), who uses Ubiquinol (the most effective form of CoQ10) to treat cardiac issues.
Instead of doing the nuclear stress test & CT scan. He did an EchoCardiogram, and determined that my heart muscle was stiffening in the resting phase (meaning that muscle wasn't getting enough blood supply.
Dr. Langsjoen told me to start taking 200mg of Ubiquinol, twice daily. After 5 month on that, my blood pressure was 120/7, all the symptoms were gone and a repeat EchoCardiogram was normal!!!
I'm now taking 100mg twice daily. My blood pressure is normal & I continue to be symptom free.
I had a nuclear stress test in 2005, prior to having a knee replacement. I thought I was dying! It was a "normal" result.
Ill never do that again!!!

@Devonviolet - I hope I get similar results as I have been taking CoQ10 since the last time this discussion came up.

That's an extremely low diastolic number.Dr. Langsjoen told me to start taking 200mg of Ubiquinol, twice daily. After 5 month on that, my blood pressure was 120/7, all the symptoms were gone and a repeat EchoCardiogram was normal!!!
I had an echo done on Oct 25, a week after the stress test. It's good to check valve operation, whether blood is flowing while at rest and muscle action, but does very little in regards to amt of blood pumped and how well the arteries that feed the muscle are working.
I didn't like the chem stress test at all , but stress tests have saved mine and many millions of other lives because they give the cardiologists the full picture of what is going on while the heart is having to work the hardest, which is when most fatal heart attacks happen at work or at home, during any kind of exercise. (myocardial infarction can happen any time, but usually happens during times of duress/physical activity)
Even most diseased hearts work quite well when the patient is just lying there quietly which of course, is the norm for when an echo is done.
(I didn't like after the echo, having to get all that slimy mess off my hairy chest tho..TMI?)

Well the other "option", not that I was given a choice, is to have your hairy chest shaved. Those regrowing hairs are mighty uncomfortable for a LONG time!
Yes @Devonviolet , I am glad to know that your diastolic wasn't actually 7
I think that would mean you were about dead. But 120/74 is really good, especially without high blood pressure medicine.If you like we can call all the places you go to eat food that is bad for you and tell them you aren't allowed to come in
Do you think the sun gods are trying to tell me something?

Yeah, the Sun god's middle finger! 
And it is only 15 kWhs. We use more than that most every day, often 50% more.
