"It gives me joint pain and I easily get tired. I have also developed gynecomastia they called it man-boobs It made me uncomftable. I really need to stop it. Ill try CO Q10 or hawthorn berry for replacement hope it will work for me."

"Digoxin is not working for me. My weight has dropped to 6 stone from 9 stone but I can not taste or swallow food and go for several days without eating at all. I have no energy so can do nothing. This causes great distress for my family as for myself hopefully recent blood tests prove I need to come off this drug."

"It has improved my husband's life. His heart doesn't beat so weak or irregularly. Doctor says it is essential to his remaining heart muscle to beat strong & regular. Has lessened some of the chest discomfort. Only side effect noticed (at initial dose,) was the effect it had on his appetite. Initial dose was w/a.m. meds; but, went all day without eating a thing. I suggested taking w/p.m. dose. Cardiologist approved; works great. Now eats his 3 regulars daily and looks a lot better."
