Guest guest Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 Thanks TK, and yes I'm using DMSA/ALA with all the sup's Andy recommends...except Flax oils, I just can't get those down him - no matter what I've tried mixing them with. kw reditribution - KW > TK, > > I don't really understand the redistribution thing. I mean I understand the > concept, but what are the potential ill-affects or " problems " with it? --- Redistributiion causes damage and side effects like the headaches, body pain, allergy type symptoms etc.. Keeping it to a minimum means less possible damage, more consistent chelating, and a happier more functional child or adult.

Did I do the right thing? I understood > that of I go longer than 4 hours I should stop the round. --- Yes, you did the right thing if it was ALA. Four hours is supposed to be the cut off time. > > Tonight (11 hours after the last dose he had), my son is complaining of a > headache (mild, based on his behavior). I assume this is from the round > stopping early (redistribution??) --- Yes very possibly. My usual side effects almost always include headaches. When I have accidentally missed a dose early in a round and had to stop this would happen along with sniffling, itchy eyes, sneezing etc. > > Thanks, > kw > > BTW, I have used Ibuprophen in the past when they warrant some pain > relief....is this ok to use? > --- Andy suggests not using Ibuprofen and instead asprin but I can not remember why at the moment - anyone else remember why ? I know Ibuprofen is hard on the liver and can irritate the GI tract. TK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
