Chelating aggressively, means in terms of Asunra, opting for max dose.

I was just wondering Why don't you think to restart Kelfer, if it suit you? Alone or with Asunra?
As Kelfer is capable in reduction of cardiac iron.

@Dear Andy.
What else could be the reason other than Iron for higher heartbeats in case of pratilk?

Andy Battaglia:
Other possible causes would be low Hb and insufficient exercise.

Yesterday,

I didn't paid visit to the family doctor (which I talked about previously in above posts) but my dad just went to consult and he also told that low Hb could be the reason. But my Hb always stays above 9.

Yeah, I've been lazy these days and not exercising as I used to previously. But even when I was, I had my beats high, I thought excessive exercise also may cause troubles.

Should Defriprone and Exjade be taken together, Andy? How safe or good it would be?

-P.

Andy Battaglia:
I've only known two people who have used Deferiprone and Exjade in combination. Because it has had such limited trials, I would not recommend it, unless under a doctor's weekly supervision.

Pratik:
Hi everybody.

I visited that family doc of mine (who also is a heart specialist) and got ECG (Electronic Cardiogram) done.

It was perfectly normal.

I will get T2* done shortly.

-P.
