Dear Sharona:

You wrote:  "I have listened to the comments about co-q-10 and did have
Jelly Bean on it for a short period of time before she died.  She had some
side effects with the pill, diarrhea - did anyone else have that problem
with the co-q-10?"

My advice to you would be to check out our Canadian National/Regional Club
website:  http://www.candog.com/cavaliers

Go to the fourth blue bar.  This will take you to our health related
articles.  Scroll down to the Heart articles; specifically:  Management of
Congestive Heart Failure.  This article discusses the different "families"
of drugs used for heart therapy.

Based on personal experience, when we used "Digoxin" (an agent used for
cardiac contractility), our dog did experience diarrhea.  Two things can be
done:  1) increase fibre (ie shredded wheat, pumpkin) and/or reduce the
doseage of digoxin.  You didn't mention the medications your dog was
receiving (other than Co-Q10).  I mention this in case your dog received
this drug.
