Chelation therapy
Hello doc.
My dad is suffering from CAD,HTN,DM
And currently he is on aspirin and other respective tabs.
As of now I got to know that there is chelation therapy which vanishes the free radicals causing injury to blood vessels. And it even removes the blocks(my dad has 70%in Rca and other 2 blocks in minor left arteries)
As of now he has not gone angioplasty nor bypass surgery.
We want to avoid angioplasty and go for chelation therapy?
Is that safe and effective?
Even if we go for chelation therapy ..won't there be any recurrence of blocks in blood vessels??
