Salam... i was half way wrinting this post and suddenly my lappy went kahooona on me.. shut down suka hati dia je.. oh well, kena taip again la kan.. first, i feel terharu since ada yg notice i've updated my blog yesterday.. hahaha..here goes another post from me.. well, some of you ight know this fact.. my mum is not in the pinkiest of health that she can be.. she refuses the modern medical treatment that the specialist have consulted her to do.. BY PASS HEART SURGERY OR OPEN HEART SURGERY.. well the term explains the meaning already.. it's a huge surgery where the surgeon will open up the chest via the bone call sternum.. basically gerudi his war to the heart.. take the vein in your leg and place it at your heart creating a rnew route for the blood to flow into the heart.. thats why it is called by pass.. it's kinda freaky since u cut open the chest and the heart is practically stopped.. huuuu.. no wonder la my mum says no to it.. i am also 50-50 about this procedure..it's an invasive procedure and my mum's age and underlying conditions are my greatest concern.. anyways.. my mum shooese to try out alternative treatments.. the one i have recently see with my own eyes is the ECP. or external counter-regulatory pulsation.. where ur lower limbs.. i.e or leg and thigh would be strapped to a machine that shakes your boy in an attept to help your heart and improve the ciculaion by reducing the burden of the heart.. it doesnt work like the shake-shake machine shown on tv.. my mum is on oxygen and her heart activity is closely monitered by the doctor.it aims on creating an artificial heart which will counter-regulate the action of heart..when the heart pumps, the machine will stop for a while.. when the heart doesnt beat.. the ECP wil make it beating... not only that.. the clinic that my mum goes to almost everyday ni has other therapy to offer for people who suffered from diabetes, heart failure, stroke and so on. apasrt from ECP they also have chelating therapy where a form of liquid of heavy metals is injected and the heavy metals ions will try to breakdown the fibrofatty plaque blocking the areteries or veins.. another on is hyperbaric chamber where the oxygen supply is the key to it's effectiveness especially on people who have diabetes, overweight or obesity, heart problem and others...so you see... although i would soon practice modern medicine i still believe in the therapy..
