My mother, age 92, has calcified valve (aortic stenosis). She has been doing Pauling therapy, and we've got her off warfarin, using supplements nattokinase, serrapeptase, vitamin E, fish oil, oral EDTA, to attempt to prevent blood clotting. We've added vitamin K to possibly reduce calcification of the valve. Also lyposomal R alpha lipoic acid. I know this is a hail Mary pass, but the conventional doctors have nothing to offer.
She has used Metoprolol, Isosorbide, but now her blood pressure plummets when she takes them. She has heart failure.
Working against the valve constantly, late in the day, if she pushes herself in the least, her blood pressure will drop. I can deal with low blood pressure, get her to lie down with her feet elevated, and her blood pressure will rise. She is usually ok in fifteen or twenty minutes, but sometimes she loses consciousness. She has gone to the hospital when I am not with her and care-givers encounter this situation.
Is enough known about Pauling therapy with aortic stenosis that it is reasonable to hope in this situation?
