How much cortef are you on? And how are you taking it

>

> I just wanted to share that on my last chelation round last week,

I increased to 200 mgs. DMSA and 200 mgs. ALA. This increase was

after chelating for four months. Today I started another round at

this same dosage. The effects that I have noticed with the

increased are as per usual for me, emotional and psychiatric, e.g.

irritability, feeling kind of wired and very very restless. Other

than that, the usual fatigue that I always experience anyway.

> I would like to say that I have had a lot of improvement since

beginning chelation per Andy's protocol in August. I truly have

hope now that I can recover from both my CFS and mood issues. I

finally got to the right doctors, besides my chelation doctor, who

gave me the cortef and will give me thyroid as soon as I get my

adrenals stronger with a couple of weeks of cortef. He did a

salivary cortisol test and said my adrenals were in bad shape (as if

I didn't know). I'm hoping that with this support now, I can feel

even better while I continue to chelate. Basically I have gone from

being so weak and debilitated that I could barely take a shower to

functioning pretty well again, including driving and getting

groceries at supermarket. I am able to do chores around the house

again and have the energy to keep up with most things. I still am

not near well enough to be able to resume outside employment. I

still have to pace myself and rest when my body says so. I take

lots and lots of supplements which also help me a lot, primarily

flax seed oil, fish oil, all the B's in liquid form, C with

bioflavonoids, milk thistle, custom ordered amino acids per my

deficiencies, B12 injection every week, selenium and vitamin E,

zinc, digestive enzymes, HCL, and lecithin.

> I have found this to all be very helpful. Andy's book has been my

saving grace, truly, and since the beginning, everything that the

doctor has been able to find on a test, I have been able to verify

and validate in Andy's book which has been a real comfort.

> My boyfriend had his amalgams out 6 years ago and decided to join

me in chelation with ALA alone, incase he had mercury left in body,

especially in brain. He started in August also with 100 mgs. ALA

per Andy's schedule. Now he is up to 200 mgs. ALA and truly, I have

seen a different man unfold in front of my eyes after 4 months of

his chelation with ALA. He has gone from being in a bad mood a lot

of the time and also some depression, to being upbeat and in a good

mood and doing things I've never seen him do. What used to be a

total chore for him is now a joy.
