I think things may be out of context here...you state, Dr. Lonsdale won't consider other forms of chelation " at this point " ...well right on...a good medical call! If this child is having liver problems with a gentle form of chelation...why would Dr. Lonsdale consider using another form of chelation " AT THIS POINT " ... any other form commonly used is going to be stronger the TTFD, so why go there and cause an escalation of the liver issues? My 6 year old son is a patient of Dr. Lonsdale. Instead of tunnel vision, I have experienced a Dr. who is willing to review and try most things I ask him to. I haven't experienced any form of tunnel vision at all. He has great respect for Dr. McCandless and her protocols as well. The only treatment I mentioned that he wasn't keen on was Dr. Megson's Vit A + Bethanacol protocol. He hasn't seen it work with any of his kids. I don't classify his determination on it as not willing to explore other avenues. Dr. Lonsdale struck me as another doctor who has a passion for our kids but is more than a bit overwhelmed by what the kids are going through and that there are so many needing help. He of course is going to recommend TTFD (authia cream) first...it's his research baby after all and he has seen it working! As for my son, I have never been able to apply the full daily dose AM and PM, as it's too much for him. I am hoping to work up to it but right now I can only apply the AM dose every other day. My son's aluminium and copper levels especially, were off the charts. I have to chelate very slowly. We should also consider if the child with the Liver issues is at the same time, on other supplements, meds, protocols, etc...Seems to me the correct path was taken when liver issues were found and the treatment stopped. As our kids chelate, the metals are pulled from tissue/organs, etc...and enter the blood stream for processing by the liver on their way out of the body...there is always the chance for an overload which is why the liver test was done! I guess what I am saying here is that the TTFD wasn't hard on the liver....the HEAVY METALS were. The TTFD was doing it's job even with most of it increasing sulfation issues so the body naturally detoxifies. I would take a break and start off more slowly once the tests indicate his liver is responding normally again and then retest during treatment.> >>>>I would just be careful and >do alot of research on this one...no matter who the doctor is...>>>> That would be easy if " alot " of research existed. Dr. Lonsdale's abstract is on the web as recommendations from a few other Dan doctors. For the parent, our main form of info comes from us...parents and other caregivers with firsthand experience...even then each child is going to have their own individual response based on their biomedical condition....how much metals are present, etc..
