Guest guest Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 We have TD-DMSA fro Dr H too. I'm afraid that we're not starting for another 2 weeks (Mb12 first) but he's put us on an 8hr frequency. I suggested that I'd like to start at 4hr, he said that we could but it's not necessary so we'll stick to 8hr. Boy does the stuff smell though, we got it in a sealed tupperware container and it still smells the house out, where can I but one of those radioactive lead lined safes, that might seal it. How are other people coping withe the smell, will our boy stink for the entire weekend? Emlyn > > We had huge probs getting Tom to take oral DMSA. Dr H has just given > me Td.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 We've now done first day & night. You are right, the smell is unbelieveable!!! The good news is that it seems to disappear off the body after 30mins so Tom doesn't seem to smell too bad (although I am a bit worried that I might just be getting used to stench!! LOL) The house also smells though - wishing for summer here as have all windows possible open. We have started at much lower dose than Dr H said and every 4 hrs - I think we will work towards higher dose. I was too scared re redistribution to give him such a huge dose so infrequently to start with, but so far we are not seeing any increased stimming in fact he seems v happy (apart from he also doesn't like smell!) Hope all goes well for you when you start. Bests Gail > > > > We had huge probs getting Tom to take oral DMSA. Dr H has just given > > me Td.
