Guest guest Posted December 31, 2000 Report Share Posted December 31, 2000 Yes I had the same problem with my insurance company until I was able to get my doctor to write the prescription as TAKE AS NEEDED. With this Rx it eliminates that 30 day insurance silliness. You take the medication as needed not as a computer tells you how to take it. Funny how a machine can run your life, and determine what you will and won't do. Also the big drug stores like riteaid, walgreens ect can not get out of their computers long enough to do the right thing. Stick with the smaller ones that can give personal attention. Remember Chemet is 3 times less toxic than a sugar placebo, according to the federal TLC studies ( see messages/govinfo and type in TLC at the search function) and will only make you healthy, yet they make it a tough job to get the medication. Still can not figure out why. - -- In egroups, nulani@u... wrote: > > > So did I, but our pharmacist was in a panic when we did the test. > He had > > to ship in an entire bottle for the 2 capsules we needed for the > test. > > He asked his wife if she knew if we were going to need the rest, it > cost > > the pharmacy sever hundred dollars to get it in. > > Our pharmacist started sputtering when he saw our prescription.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2000 Report Share Posted December 31, 2000 After dealing with doctors who were too " afraid " to try chelation for my son, I decided to order my DMSA from VRP and treat him myself....for $40 per bottle of 45 capsules. The plus side? I don't have to see my doctor and pay his fees every month...but managed to convince the nurse practitioner to at least order the monitoring tests. The down side? Personally, after all the research and questions and reading Andy's book...there really isn't a down side. My son is now in round 2 and doing beautifully! Just my two cents on COSTS!!! (my doctor was LIVID that I was going to go ahead and treat him myself...but ask me if I care!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Who is VRP, and what is their web site? I can imagine that a doctor would be LIVID that your child would get healthy, think of all of the golf clubs and pool parties you will cost him with a healthy non- poisoned child.--- In egroups, fullarmor@a... wrote: > After dealing with doctors who were too " afraid " to try chelation for my son, > I decided to order my DMSA from VRP and treat him myself....for $40 per > bottle of 45 capsules.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 VRP is Vitamin Research Products. The website is www.vrp.com. I ordered their catalog on-line and ordered the DMSA through the mail. They were very kind on the phone too. They did ask if I had a practitioner working with me and I (very truthfully) told them I had a nurse practitioner " monitoring " the results. (She is ordering the tests for me...but has no idea what to look for and when...she just orders them when I ask and calls me when the results are in!) ...I have been following your posts and after reading another Mom's post of her own symptoms, I am convinced that I too have a major mercury problem...my mouth is full of fillings...which disintegrated when I was pregnant with my autistic son and nursing my other NT (but struggling) son...We were also exposed to lead at the same time through faulty lead paint removal. Since then, I have had tinnitus, headaches, stiff neck, extreme fatigue...and of course, all along both myself and my doctor chalked it all off as extreme stress from dealing with my children's problems!!! My New Year's resolution is to have the amalgams removed and get myself healthy...so I will be alive to enjoy my children's good health when we are through with all of this! Any helpful information on amalgam removal and treatment that you have followed would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
