I assume you’re on blood thinner now.

I would bump up all antioxidants you could take. Fresh fruits, whatever you like, eat more of.

Supplement with Co-Q10, Omega 3 fish oil, Vitamin E, C and NAC (N-alpha acetyl carnosine), plus at least 5000 IU of vitamin d. I would probably add in ginseng, echinacea and goldenseal, astragalus, green tea, and acai berry supplements.

Would also use honey instead of sugar.

Prayer is good. You can always ask here for a prayer request. Lots of people will pray for you along with your own prayers.

I’m diabetic, so honey is out.

But I’m definitely going to ask about the supplements when I go to the neurologist later this month.

Of course, all prayers are gratefully accepted.

I agree. My mother in law 82, is in a facility because she has a history of strokes, 4 of them last summer, and my father in law is in an alzheimer facility, My husband had a nervous breakdown, and I fell and fractured my spine.

That’s a great post. Sounds almost like my regimen, except for the herbs. I would recommend the Ester C, natural E, B-Complex 100, and raw bee pollen. Maybe swallow the fish oil with a gulp of Udo’s (mainly flax seed) Oil. Oh and by the way, the fish oil needs to be Nature’s Bounty. I’ve tried numerous brands, and the Nature’s Bounty brand is simply the best in every way.

Those are good suggestions. Fish oil — a dozen grams or more a day — is especially important. Krill oil or emulsified fish oil with lemon oil are likely to be easiest to tolerate.

Be sure that the vitamin E that you use is natural source with high gamma and tocopherols and tocotrienols. Much of the vitamin E on the market is artificial or limited to the inferior d-alpha isomer.
