THE USE OF MSM ( Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) & ANTICOAGULANTS , IS IT SAFE ?

5 Replies

I've been taking MSM capsules 500mg X 4 for many years for knee and rib pain.

Is anyone else taking this supplement and what are your thoughts on it? Drugs.com shows no MSM, WebMd shows no interactions, other sites show the Arthritis Assoc. recommends that people on blood thinners avoid this BLOOD THINNING supplement. Doctor is not sure as is the Pharmacist !

Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance for your kind input.

A Blessed Christmas to all the members here.

Sorry but we are not medically trained so must not give such advice particularly if your doctor and pharmacist decline as they are supposed to be experts. If in any doubt then DONT..

Thanks Bob. Yes I know, I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with MSMas many of us are on anticoagulants .

How is the vaccination going there in the UK. Can't trust the mass media for the truth.

All going well so far except two people had anaphylactoid reactions and needed adrenaline but these were both health care workers who were known to have such reactions occasionally and carried adrenaline pens. Both fully recovered in hours but advice now is if you suffer this way don't have it. Not sure how many people vaccinated yet but it will be in the tens of thousand rather than hundreds of thousands so far I guess.

Here in Canada they are talking about amazing progress ! Sure! We received enough for 125,000 persons to be vaccinated by March. With vaccinations going full clip by Sept and into 2022. So mask wearing will be a months to years proposition .Our PM is more interested in having the Chinese Red Army practising manouvers in Canada . I wonder how the Americans and Nato feel about this China whorship. We gave China speciments from our level 4 labs and $$billions to develope a vaccine.

Once ready they told us they would not share with us. Our Pm is the emperor with no clothes, not too be trusted. Extremely frustrating.
