My son, he is 3 1/2 years old and his hair test shows very high level <BR>

of LEAD. It is 9 and the normal range is < 1 according to Pfiffer <BR>

treatment center IL. His blood test is normal for LEAD.<BR>

idea his source of exposure?

1. Did anybody did/doing chelation for the above case ( only because<BR>

*Many chelate for lead and mercury at the same time since DMSA works for both.

Does Pfeifer have a hair testing lab of it's own or sdo they send it off for

analysis? If they send it off, where? Did they test for other metals and if so,

with what results?

Depends on what chelation agent you use, how much you give, how often, etc.

Consider Andy's protocol which you can find in the files of this list.

DMSA (dimercapto succinic acid)

There are difference of opinions about why LEAD is there in the HAIR<BR>

It's definitely a commitment. Leaving the lead (or other toxic metals) in a

child is more serious according to many on this list.

Our problem is whom we can belive. We are worried ?.<BR>

<BR>

That is the reason we want to hear from parents who did chealtion<BR>

based on the hair test.<BR>

thanks in advance<BR>

My daughter's hair lead level was 15 with the same reference range. After taking

ALA for about 10 rounds it had come down to 9.6 (ALA is not supposed to remove

lead). After about another 15 rounds with ALA and DMSA it has come down to 2.6.

2. Why blood test didn't show any LEAD ?

3. What are the side effects of chelation

4. Which is the safest method of doing chealation

4. Which are the medicines used for LEAD chelation

There are difference of opinions about why LEAD is there in the HAIR

and not in Blood. My Sons' doctor is telling chelation is adviseble

only if LEAD is there in blood and if it high. He is telling it is

serious business.

Our problem is whom we can belive. We are worried ?.

That is the reason we want to hear from parents who did chealtion

based on the hair test.

thanks in advance
