vivid dreams

Hello,
I have been taking Ayurvedic supplements to control heart inflammation caused by heart muscle damage. I experience vivid dreams the days I take the medicine. Is that a healthy or danger sign?
Thanks.

Thank you very much, doctor, for the post. The doctors were unable to make a diagnosis, but going by my symptoms of shortness of breath accompanied by fatigue and palpitations immediately following a viral infection, I am certain it was myocarditis. Since, as far as I know, there is not much in allopathic medicine for this, except a period of rest, I thought of trying Ayurvedic supplements. However, as you point out, these have not gone through the rigorous testing for side-effects.
Thanks again,
Malan

Hi, what was the diagnosis made? If you have been initiated on allopathy medicines by your doctor for the heart ailment, please don't discontinue the same without consulting the doctor, as this can have adverse effects on the heart. As for the ayurvedic supplements, its difficult to comment on these medications, unless scientific studies have been done to monitor the side effects. I suggest you consult your physician for a re assessment. Good luck with your therapy. Regards.
