Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 > > Citrus Punch > > My chelation doctor has been doing this for a long time and has observed patients over long-term chelation. I know we have stated here over and over that the urine tests are useless to track mercury chelation, but I just would like to address something that came up the other day. I had another urine test in which I collected my urine over a 24 hour period during my fourth day of chelation with DMSA and ALA. Great Smokies did the post challenge test. I came out showing no measurable mercury excreted. TK--- This doesn't necessarily mean you have no more Hg. I've been chelating for nine months now and this is the 3rd urine test they've done on me. The first one showed high mercury excretion. The second one showed none and this third one showed none. However, each one of them showed high lead excretion. So l got my results yesterday and my doctor said that they see this over and over again, that DMSA will pull lead first and they've had patients who don't even START to pull mercury for a year or so. Is this true? Could I be chelating for nine months doing Andy's protocol and only be pulling lead and no mercury? I could understand if I were just taking DMSA and it was pulling lead first, but what about the ALA I'm taking? Shouldn't that be pulling some mercury out of my brain? > > TK: I know that if you see this post, you might be thinking that these urine tests are useless, but even in " Amalgam Illness " Andy says " continue chelation until mercury urine excretion is low " . So they must have some validity if he says that. TK--- for the purpose he states, Hg is not released consistently when chelating which makes urine challenge tests unreliable but you did do it correctly during a chelation round. You may have a bigger lead problem than Hg or it may be comming out first. Andy would be the best to consult on these results. > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
