Well, I reviewed the list of products that contain triclosan and I have used many of them over the years. Recently I have been diagnosed with “stiff heart syndrome” which, basically, means that my heart muscle is impaired and not flexible and, thus, does not pump blood out. My prognosis is not good. My doc said my heart does not relax, and that stress might have caused the problem, so he told me to try to remove all stress from my life,LOL. But, I wonder what I do about this news besides discussing it with him who will probably say it is a “non issue.” I wonder if I can get a test of some sort to see if I have a significant accumulation of this chemical in my blood/body.
I’m so sorry to hear about your medical problem, CM. I truly hope you can find/do something to reverse it, or at least prolong the precious time you have. It’s worth asking about blood/tissue tests to see if that might be a contributing factor. I’ll say a prayer for you, FRiend.
