As many of you might be aware of, I had a heart attack the end of last October.
What you ate not aware of is that i have Familial hypercholesterolemia
Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common inherited genetic disorder causing extremely high LDL ("bad") cholesterol from birth, significantly increasing the risk of early heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes due to plaque buildup in arteries. It's caused by gene mutations affecting cholesterol removal, leading to symptoms like skin cholesterol deposits (xanthomas) and rings around the eye (corneal arcus), though often symptoms only appear in adulthood with severe heart issues. Treatment involves medications and lifestyle changes, with early detection and management crucial for preventing premature cardiovascular events.
I fortunately had EMS get to me fast and trasported me immediately to Edmonton with surgery (angioplasty) the next day
No hear damage whatsoever! And no symptoms like the cholesterol deposits nor corneal arcus. I did not have the normal indicators or normal heart attack symptoms. So this was very much a surprise.
I started the pharmaceuticals while i was in the hospital, as I had no other option at the time and I continued to take them for a few weeks while Idid more research into my condition and what my body was asking for to help it heal itself and what it was going to take to manage this particular disorder.
I have taken a complete holistic approach and no longer take any pharmaceuticals.
I had experienced the extreme side effects from the big pharma and am happy to say i no longer experience those side effects and feel amazing.
I take certain vitamins and minerals along with other types of natural homeopathic remedies… This is best for me!
I do not recommend nor promote you do the same, please advise your doctor.
I have been alcohol free for 2 years and quit smoking 6 months ago. I am also including more exercise with better eating choices such as cutting out sugar.
Connecting the Mind, Body and Spirit
So much information out there as far as health and vitality goes.
The info I share on this page is just that, Info.
It is up to you to use your intuition and discover what is right for you!!
There is always a place for medical advise and procedures. As a woman who was a former medic and owned a medic company for years, I have always had an passion for the healthcare industry and i am truly grateful for the EMS, the doctors and nurses that helped save my life… I am equally greatful to the holistic practioners and believe they must be equally respected.
Thank you for letting me share
