I am 76 years old with bronchitis/ chronic bronchiectasis for which is alwys terminal because there is NO treatment and until a few weeks ago I was unable to walk up any stairs without using my inhaler profusely but after a few doses of 2mg Astaxanthin I am able to walk up as many as 30 stairs with no breathlessness or use of my inhaler, hopefully it will slow or stop this disease in its tracks

Using this to treat clotting, apoptotic cellular debris along inner opric nerve near circle of Willis. Seems to produce quite an effect after years of treating a closed head injury with with a wide variety of antioxidants, neural hyperplasics and the like. Ask me and I'll tell you.

I am on low dose HRT and wanted to try astaxanthin for fibromyalgia. Took 4mg of BioAstin per day for 2 days and on the second day had chest pains, bright flashes in corner of one eye, cold sweats and a burning sensation rising from my neck to the top of my head. I thought I was having a heart attack.

I initially started this supplement as an adjunct to Cardiac meds. (have Marfan Syndrome) Because of 'metallic' mitral valve, am on warfarin for life. One & one-half weeks later, I did my normal weekly INR (PT/PTT) to be sure my blood is clotting slowly enough. My INR was 1.1 (in the range for normal people). Mine is supposed to be 3.0 to 3.5 International Normalized Ratio(INR). I went to the ER to have hospital lab check my INR. Their reading was 1.0. MD recommended treatment (adjustments to Warfarin, and adding Lovenox injections) until my INR gets back to my target range. I realized that I had just been on astaxanthin for 1 to 2 wks. I have discontinued astaxanthin. I suspect it interferes with the liver's processing of warfarin. I'll update here when my INR is again in a therapeutic range.
