Dear Dr. Fonorow,
I talked with the Foundation this afternoon; he suggested I email you for suggestions on how to deal with my elevated Lpa. My own MD, who is an internist and knowledgeable in alternative medicine, is open to me trying the lysine/proline/c. I'd like to get it in my area if possible (Forest Park, Il.) I have Dr. Rath's book.
The last Lpa went from 250 to 325, despite taking Niacin.
Sincerely, J.A.
From those units I assume nmol/l (If mg/dl then there is very likely a problem with the test itself)
Well, the product that works best at lowering Lp(a) is the Tower HEART TECHNOLOGY (hearttechnology.com) , and if you can afford it Tower Ascorsine-9 might be even better.
It would be good to have you/doctor monitor your progress. You might even ask him if he would be willing to conduct a study if this works in your case. (We'd be willing to provide him product/Lp(a) test kits if he were willing to conduct a pilot study of 15 or 20 patients with elevated Lp(a).
What we don't know is how long it takes for Lp(a) to reach zero, for some people it may require from 6 to 18 months. But it does go down at the right dosage over time.
