CASE HISTORIES AND COMMENT-TOWARDS HOMEOSTASIS

The re-establishing of homeostasis after treatment is an attainable ideal, noted by cardiac experts such as Professor Vincent who also sees its reverse more often in operation in sick patients: ‘In medicine the idea of vicious circles is true. You take heart failure. If the heart fails to pump blood well enough in one beat then a bit of blood accumulates. Next time it’s a bit overfilled so a bit less efficient. In heart failure there’s a spiralling down which requires a lot of therapy until you get back up to a particular point and then it can be held. Tucked back in there is a mechanism which you push back into balance of operation and then it’s maintained in spite of the fact that the treatment is no longer there.’

This is what seems to happen to the patients who have chelation therapy. They no longer need their drugs, props, and restricted lifestyles: their fear of overdoing things abates and they are

re-empowered to take charge of their health instead of their sickness taking charge of them.
