Hawthorne helped with my bradycardia:

In addition to the other link I posted about supplements that have helped me enormously during this time being on/coming off of Yasmin, wanted to share something that has alleviated alot of the problems I was experiencing with bradycardia (unsually slow heartbeat -at/under 60 bpm that became ectopic-where it would skip beats) because I think there were alot of women who have reported concerns/issues with their hearts.

I am still presently using this in tincture form along with schizandra and have noticed that the arrhythmia I was experiencing has almost completely disappeared. Here is some information about its healing properties:

Phytochemicals: Caffeic Acid, Hyperoside, Oligomeric Procyanid, Vitexin, Ursolic acid, Rutin, Flavonoids, Quercetin

Medicinal properties: Hawthorn contains a variety of flavanoids that appear to be responsible for the cardiac actions of the plant. Hawthorn has been used for heart cardiac insufficiency, bradycardic rhythm disorders and angina pectoris. Hawthorn increases the blood flow to the heart and restores normal heart beat. Hawthorn is also used after heart attack to help recovery. Hawthorn dilates blood and assists in reducing high blood pressure. Studies have shown that hawthorn increase the contraction strength and the stroke volume of the hearth. Howthorn is only effective if taken for a period of minimum six weeks.
Hawthorn flowers and berries are astringent and are used in decoction to treat sore throats and digestive ailments, such as vomiting and diarrhoea. Hawthorn is also used as diuretic and to treat kidney stones.

Other facts: Hawthorn was first mentioned by the Greek herbalist Dioscorides during the first century AD. It went out fashion as a medicine until the 19th century, when it was used to treat heart diseases. Hawthorn originates from Europe and Western Asia.

While taking daily dosage of 18mg increasing to 20mg after 4 days (regular increase of 2mg) I experienced a sudden blackout lasting approx. 5 minutes. I am 58 years of age and had never passed out before. The reason was bradycardia and a drop in BP, from a norm of around 125/85 to 95/58. BP and pulse rate normalised in four days but dosage not increased since. No benefit yet found in dosage of 20mg. Slight nausea and insomnia also experienced. Wondering if I should continue; following advice of GP but would really prefer a homeoepathic remedy if there were one available!
Sincerely,
Rita Hudd

I have been on toprol for four months. After a stent was put in my heart, I had very hard time adjusting and developed panic attacks and added xanax to the mix. After two month I had to stop taking Zocar because side effects. Still I was always exusted, mini black out spells, light headed during exercise, cold hands, no tolerance to cold weather, palpatations and memory loss. One day I was looking foe my cell phone in the office for ten minutes before I realized that I was talking on it. I was always leaving things behind and had to check I had everything I needed. But I knew things were not right when my BP range was 110/98 over 68-60 with a pulse of 56 to 39. I believe it is called bradycardia. Needless to say my doctor took me off the Toprol and the Zocar. After one day there is a 100% difference. I needed to do this months ago.
