ramakentesh Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Im very curious about this herb as it was recently found to result in hypomethylation of aberrant hypermethylated gene promoters. This is speculated as a cause of POTS in some patients (NET deficiency/hypermethylation). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandymbme Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I used to use feverfew years ago and had some success with it, but it was years before my pots diagnosis. You have pricked my curiosity, though. I am definitely going to discuss it with my PCP, as I no longer respond to any of the triptan meds for my migraines. The only thing that seems to work for me is megadoses of caffeine, interestingly enough. Like 600-800 mg. I will have a caffeinated bev along with 2-3 tabs of no-doz, or a caffeine drip in the hospital. But it can do awful things to my tummy. So I have to pick my poison!
