chelation no longer an option
I saw my cardiologist today for results of my echocardiogram. It shows that I have stenosis in mitral and aortic valves. I have had heart surgery twice for valve replacement (2004 and 2007 ) and had several complications so he said with my MDS I am a poor risk. I wouldn't have done it anyway. He said that due to these results I cannot do chelation therapy because my heart is already taxed and any infection will be fatal. I still appreciate everyone who shared suggestions with me.
