I'm obviously very encouraged by this, and was wondering if anyone has experienced this themselves? and if anyone knows if this is due to the DMSA itself? or if it's due to the fact that the mercury is being mobilized by the DMSA allowing the thyroid system to properly regulate the bodies metabolism during chelation? -----------This is very interesting , and thanks for bringing it up. I always feel better when on a round too, but have never tracked my temps on and off. I have been meaning to track temps for thyroid and adrenal reasons, and haven't done it yet, and this would be another interesting reason to do so. Do you take your temps first thing in the morning, or throughout the day? I will be very interested to see if anybody else has noticed this too.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Thanks for the reply Jackie! I check my temperature 3,6 & 9hrs after getting up, and record the average. I've noticed an amazing correlation between my symptoms and my body temp, it might sound odd but I pretty much know what my temp is before I take, based on how I feel. My throid tests have always come back normal, even though my temp is low. I also tried being treated for wilson's syndrome,but didn't notice any benefit. > > Hi everyone, I just wanted to comment on something I've observed > during my first 4 cycles (3 days on 4 days off) of chelation with 50mg > of DMSA,and to see if anyone has noticed the same. > Prior to beginning chelation I've always had a low body temperature > (96.3-97.4 oral)but during chelation it jumps up to(98.2-98.8) and I > feel fantastic.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I actually got the information off of the wilsonssyndrome.com site, although I have read the information on Dr. Rind's site as well.My throid test did include free T3, and T4, in addition to TSH.. not sure about the antibodies. Like I said the results were normal,though on the low end of the range. I hope this info was helpfull.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 One of the problems is that it is difficult to tell between adrenal and thyroid problems. Adrenal problems will bounce temps all over the place thyroid will be all low. You can be somewhat effectively be hypothyroid because low adrenal hormone will not allow you to get the T3 into your cells. It is complicated and most likely chelation can be effective. Have you done any adrenal hormone tests? Another thing to check is copper/zinc levels. Maybe to some Zinc Tally. (This is a test in a Lancet Study that determines zinc based on taste.)
