all routes to metals - Groundhog Day

[Guest guest]

I know this sounds like a totally infantile question but now we know

Tom isn't absorbing his food properly and against the back ground of

his high lead and mercury on poryphirin etc etc etc - all roads seem

to lead to metals. We stopped chelating months ago, end of last year

other than zeolites which must have stopped in April or so. THe idea

was to really work on the gut and then restart. Now I've started

reading up on enzymes it says that metals inhibit enzymes. So - we

know he's high in them but we can't move them without exacerbating his

problems but we also are only treating and not curing his

digestive/detox problems because he's high in metals and the gut can't

properly heal with the metals in there. Does/can chelation kick start

enzymes again or do we just accept that the damage is done? The only

chelator we have never tried is DMSA - how hard is that one on the

gut? This is getting like a police enquiry - we're revisiting our

initial witnesses. We saw good things early on, some terrible things

mid way and now we're teetering on equilibrium, some very nice

language gains, some good learning and some bloody awful self harming

and biting. We're in the midst of HBOT currently (god how boring is

sitting in that ruddy chamber with ear ache watching Toy Story 2,

still needs must) - might that be a good time to try out chelation

again, would chelation cock up the enzymes we've just introduced?

This is getting like Groundhog Day but I'd welcome anyone elses

clearer vision on it. !!??
