| Bypass surgery has come into prominence, in the recent times, for many heart patients as a treatment. When the arteries circulating blood get clogged , a healthy blood vessel is attached to relieve the damaged artery and to allow the blood flow without hindrance,. There are some medicines to chelate calcium to improve metabolism In Chelation therapy the reagent EDTA solution is pumped into the body by intravenous injection, which combines with metal ions like calcium, lead etc. and they are discharged. For treatment one may need 30 infusions depending on the patient, and the treatment may take around three or four hours in a week. This treatment does not give much pain as the patient can relax in a reclining chair, while the fluid goes into the veins and the patient can walk around during the treatment and he can go home driving his car. |

The doctor can assess the amount of EDTA solution required for each patient. ACAM recommends that one of their trained members may handle such patients while any cardiologist is good enough for such treatment.
Occasionally some patients may suffer from nausea, headache, but in many cases they feel relieved, and in some centers, many patients who underwent the treatment, were in good health and they were just normal and very active, as there was profound improvement in many metabolic
processes. Another advantage is that it spreads to large and tiny blood vessels all over the body unlike in the bypass surgery, wherein the vessels around the heart are only involved. No special tests or examinations are considered necessary other than the usual or customary tests required by any cardiologist. |
