Based on posts I'd read here, I decided a while back to start taking CoQ10 to see if it made any difference. I found an online site that had a super sale on it and got quite a bit. I decided to take 200mg a day and see what happened. Truthfully, I really couldn't tell much difference in that dosage.
After my gallbladder surgery, I was having trouble taking pills so I only took my prescription medications and stopped the supplements. After about 7 weeks of just my prescriptions, I started taking the CoQ10 again.
Now, I definitely see a difference. Even that small dosage is making me slightly less weak and tired. It's not a dramatic difference, but it IS a difference. Am I still weak and fatigue easily? Yes, but I can see where it's not quite as bad as it was and this improvement coincides with my starting the CoQ10 again.

Hi again Kathy,
I take 200-400mg per day depending on my mood or if I can get it cheap. I recently discovered if I shop around I can always get it buy-one-get-one-free at any of the 3 or 4 major drugstore chains. I've been buying it online for a few months off of their websites. Better yet, I often find that I get 2 for 1 PLUS each bottle has 50% more. This way I get it 3 for the price of 1 ! Also, once you order they email you weekly offers like $5-$15 e-coupons plus free shipping. It comes right to my door and cost less than the store on sale!
In addition to that piece of info, I find that if I'm going out to a store or something that a dose of 1000-1200 helps a lot to fend off the fatigue. :)
