Re: New - Sjogren's Positive But No Symptoms. Plaquenil works for a variety of autoimmune conditions (RA, SJS, lupus, etc.). A positive ANA test indicates a strong likelihood of autoimmune activity, so it seems like a good first line of defense. Also, plaquenil works on the aches/pains and fatigue of these diseases.
Chelation therapy is a treatment that involves repeated intravenous (IV) administration of a chemical solution of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, or EDTA. It is used to treat acute and chronic lead poisoning by pulling toxins (including heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury) from the bloodstream.vidence that EDTA chelation therapy is effective for heart disease is mixed. Proponents believe it may help people with atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) or peripheral vascular disease (decreased blood flow to the legs) by clearing clogged arteries and improving blood flow.
Chelation is a chemical process in which a substance is used to bind molecules, such as metals or minerals, and hold them tightly so that they can be removed from a system, such as the body. In medicine, chelation has been scientifically proven to rid the body of excess or toxic metals.he EDTA chelation therapy or placebo solution was delivered through 40 intravenous infusions that were administered over a 28-month course of treatment. The first 30 infusions were delivered on a weekly basis and the last 10 were delivered every two to eight weeks.
