Welchol Has Given Me Awful Side Effects.
Posted over a year ago
Have been on welchol for1 yr. Have had severe hip, knee, neck ,ankle and wrist pain. Diarhea, fatigue and sleeplessnes. Visits to doctor and emergency room. My ldl only dropped 4 points. For the past 4 months have been having kidney pain. According to my doctor there is no infection. It isn't worth all the pain for 4 lousy points.
Patient007 - I had blood in my Urine with no pain at all after I took Welchol I stop taking Welchol and blood in the Urine Stopped. You are lucky that is is dropping down 4 points for you for some the triglyceride level has increase after taking welchol this goes to show that your body has a way or figured out a way to compensate for the loose of triglyceride it needs to convert into energy. Which means your body is producing more toxins,due to undigested food because it is the enzyme pancreatic lipase acts at the ester bond, hydrolysing the bond and "releasing" the fatty acid so all your cells . Human pancreas is an organ responsible for producing important enzymes needed to digest what we eat. When it is in a diseased condition, or when toxins from food or the environment are introduced into the body, pancreatic hormonal imbalances can occur, and diseases such as diabetes can manifest. The pancreas must be detoxified to keep it healthy.
Fatty acids are an important source of energy and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for many cellular organisms. Triglycerides yield more than twice as much energy for the same mass as do carbohydrates or proteins. Perhaps training your body to consume good protein and use that as energy source may help.
