can't remember my last headache.

adding some ALA - start with 12.5mg for a few rounds and see how you

do, then get back to me on how you do on this.

Sorry TK--a miscommunication--The question was about ALA. I have never used

DMSA. I am using 75 mg ALA every 3 hours and have been doing this off and on

for months. The amount I am taking is 1/2 mg per lb of body weight.

The question is, " Should I increase the amount of ALA from 75 mg since I am not

having ANY symptoms? " My weight is now 156.

TK--- I would think 100mg would be fine to try at this point.

Okay, thanks. I am confused on one thing...should we be having some kind of

symptoms while chelating or is it good not to have any? Someone mentioned that

if you have no symptoms you are not releasing mercury from the brain.

Okay, thanks. I don't think I could possibly done this soon but it would be

nice if I was. I had 8 amalgams taken out in the last year to year and one

half. The hair test done in February 2006 showed the typical patterns of

mercury problems.

I am planning to continue and do a new hair test in one year to see what has

changed. Also am working on Thyroid.

TK--- your Hg load may be low or possibly you are just tollerating

chelation well, either way it is a good thing.
