Heart Disease – The treatment choice that saved my life
Heart Disease – The treatment choice that saved my life

     This column is about sharing the real life story of Khun Kasidis Kamphaengkaew’s battle with coronary artery disease that lead to a myocardial infarction (heart attack). He has since recovered and can now live a normal life. Khun Kasidis Kamphaengkaew was a patient with Absolute Health Integrative Center (Absolute Health) and underwent treatment in October 2008:

     Normally I am health conscious and do regular exercise sessions at my fitness center. I was strong and rarely got sick. One day, I had a bad back pain and went to see a doctor for muscle relaxants. However, I lost my consciousness when I arrived at the hospital. I was immediately sent to ICU for acute treatment and management. While I was there, the doctors also carried out more thorough diagnostics. 

     The medical team said that I had suffered a heart attack. My consulting doctor told me that he would like to run more test to check for clogged blood vessels. He then suggested an angiogram to identify the location of the clot before considering whether to proceed with an angioplasty or a bypass surgery as the next cause of action. However, I was not comfortable with both of the options suggested. I then started searching for other options available that were safer and had no side effects. 

     I then chose the Integrative Medicine treatment pathway with the team at Absolute Health. When I first arrived at Absolute Health, the doctor checked my whole body system using the Bio Energetic Scan. The results were precise. With the real cause now known, I then decided to carry on with treatments there. One of the treatment the doctor suggested was chelation. Back then, chelation was a new form of treatment little known to the Thai people. However, I had heard about it before as I had studied Thai medicine. Therefore, I knew of the treatment and its benefits.

     Similar to saline intravenous injection, Chelation eliminates toxins and heavy metals from the blood vessels and discharges them through urine. After having chelation for several cycles, the toxins and heavy metals mentioned will be completely eliminated from the body and the blood vessels will then become cleaner. When I initially got sick, my heart function and efficiency was only at 38%. What I really wanted to know were my results after 30 times (as suggested by the doctor) of chelation. I wanted to know whether I made the right treatment choice. I then did the Calcium Scoring test again to check my heart function. The doctor said the results showed that my heart was already functioning at 50% which was up from the earlier 38%. I was very pleased with the results.

      Now, I take a lot better care of myself. Every year I have an annual checkup and chelation to keep my blood vessels strong for better circulation. Finally, I would like to tell those suffering with the same problem that there are alternative treatments available and it is just a matter of doing more research. As for Chelation, I feel that it was simply the best treatment for me as it helped to clean the blood vessels in my body. The chances of developing health issues are common in this day and age. The key is how to overcome or prevent these problems at the root cause.

Additional advice from Doctor Wit Sombatworapat

Q: This disease shows no warning signs. Is it possible that many people have severe symptoms?

Doctor Wit: Yes, it is possible. 30-40% of coronary artery disease patients have atheroma in the blood vessels, while 70% of patients have atheroma hidden on the blood vessel walls that builds up into plaque and clogs the blood vessels immediately when it is broken. That is why 70%, suffer do not have symptoms. 

Q: Is myocardial infarction severe?

Doctor Wit:  Yes. There is no warning sign. Blood vessels are clogged immediately. Cardiac muscles without proper blood flow for a few hours result in myocardial infarction. 

Q: Many people have heard about chelation. Please explain chelation.

Doctor Wit:  Actually, it is like saline intravenous injection. In the saline solution, amino acid or sub-unit protein is added which is actually a natural process. It is called EDTA, which is used together with vitamins based on a special formula we at Absolute Health use. After having chelation, EDTA will trap the heavy metals and discharge them through the urine. Subsequently, such toxins and heavy metals will all be discharged from the body and the blood vessels will become cleaner.

Q: In case of Khun Kasidis, his heart worked at only 38%. What does it mean? How was it treated?

Doctor Wit: It means only 38% out of 100% blood can be sent to the heart due to clogged blood vessels. The blood vessels must be cleaned to increase the amount of blood sent to the heart or the cardiac muscles will die. In Conventional medicine, doctors normally recommend angioplasty or bypass surgery to solve this. 

Q: If we reject conventional treatments like angioplasty or bypass, are there other options? 

Doctor Wit: Chelation is an alternative that can address this problem. For Khun Kasidis, he had 30 times of chelation and then had calcium scoring checked again. The result was that his heart can work more at 50% after the treatment.

Q: With his heart working at 50%, does it mean that he is better?

Doctor Wit: Yes. 50% of blood supply can now reach the heart at the end of his treatment. For his case, this is satisfactory. The patients can live without heart disease and avoid experiencing chest pains with the help of chelation. Angioplasty or bypass surgery which at times can carry the risk of complications will no longer be required. Blood clots are dangerous and can also cause cerebral thrombosis which can lead paralysis.

Khun Kasidis is one of the many patients who had chosen the Integrative Medicine treatment pathway and at the same time takes care of himself well. He now strictly watches his health by having a healthy diet, exercising, taking vitamins and supplementary foods to nourish his body. To maintain good circulation and cleansing of his blood vessels, he now does chelation on a regular basis.
