Guest guest Posted August 12, 2001 Report Share Posted August 12, 2001 Hi Folks, Just wanted to let everyone know our experience with our first cycle of DMSA only. is 8 years old (almost 9) weighing about 55 lbs. Because we couldn't get hold of Dr. Holmes to discuss the 4 hr protocol vs. the 8 hr protocol, we went ahead and did what she prescribed which is 3 days on/11 days off, 200 mg DMSA & 500 mg glycine every 8 hours. I braced myself for the worst. On the first day (Friday), he was the most calm I've seen him in a long time (he is usually quite hyperactive). His language was great and frequent. Day 2 (Saturday) was much the same although towards the end of the day he became a bit frustrated a couple of times (nothing long lasting). Day 3 (Sunday, today) he is a mad man! No one in the house can say a thing without him flying off the handle. He is so very frustrated. It is very odd to watch. One minute he is fine, the next he is screaming at the top of his lungs. It just goes back and forth. That's our experience at the beginning of this long treatment, and I just wanted to share the experience with you all in hopes that it will be helpful to someone. Yours, Mickey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
