then when I take GSE it goes right back down. Has anyone ever experienced this. Any thought on what the GSE is doing? Could this be bad, in that the GSE is inactivating the ABx? thanks, j

I'll be getting a bp heartrate monitor soon and will let you know.
I really do wonder though about the effect GSe has on the Ceftin. thanks j

If you decide to measure your heart rate, count your pulse for a full minute.
Medical personel with experience can count for 15 seconds and multiply by four, but this entails being careful not to add an extra beat at the beginning of the cycle, which throws off the count.
Are you taking a good magnesium supplement? Low magnesium can cause pulse irregularities.

Wow that is interesting news about GSE...especially this bit... "Grape seed extract contains one of the richest sources of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC's), which makes it one of the most powerful antioxidants available.

Maybe indeed thats is what is happening to me? The high does of Ceftin (1000mgs) is caused a big die off that includes a faster heart rate and then the GSE brings down the inflammation from the die off. At least that sounds like a strong possibility. thanks for the info, jeremy
