Some test will be periodically repeated, usually every tenth EDTA chelation. You can help by completing all medical history forms and supplying a current list of medications you are taking. Also, it is helpful for you to send for any pertinent medical records. The nature of chelation therapy results in the removal of important micro and macro nutrients necessary in protecting the body's antioxidant defenses. These will need to be replaced.
Nutritional evaluation is required to make sure replacement needs are being met.
Re-evaluation of nutritional status occurs every tenth EDTA chelation. Chelation for vascular problems vary from 20 to 30 EDTA treatments. Chelation for heavy metals is monitored and re-evaluated after 10 chelation treatment intervals. While treatment may require up to 30 treatments or more, each treatment is beneficial unto itself. Each patient's program can be individually tailored to meet a variety of needs.
