Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I am curious to know if the doctor you went to see was Dr. . I went to see him recently (June maybe?), and he mentioned he was going to be doing this for his son.

Sensorily, I have not noticed improvement, but in the other areas we are seeing a lot of improvement. So I am very hopeful! I was very discouraged since I saw how impossible oral chelation would be with him. We would probably have to wait YEARS for this. Out of desperation we contacted a doctor who gave us the choice to use Buttar's transdermal DMPS with him. Now, I thought about the odd timing, every 2 days! so opposed to what we know about DMPS optimal use, every 8 hours. But at the same time it is not sure the DMPS significantly crosses the skin to the blood vessels. It is very possible that the other ingredients in the cream are the ones responsable for the positive effects, so DMPS half life wouldn't be so important. I debated about giving it to him in a smaller dose, evey 8 hours during 3 days schedule, but finally decided to go for the 48 hour aplication because of empirical reasons. I could doubt what Dr. Buttar said about the results of his trial, and on his son, after all, it could be a scam. But the doctor I went to see was a super nice guy, whose son is autistic and he was using this cream on his son, and him and his wife saw a lot of improvement within a month. I had no reason to think he was lying to me. I also imagined in my mind the horrible battle it would be to put ANYTHING on my son's skin three times a day. One therapist tryed to teach us about massage but it was a disaste, plus the TD DMPS stinks, so it would be another nightmare, and he is getting too big to be forced now. So today is the 5th day of treatment. And we are noticing another steep improvement, as noticeable as the improvement we saw with the diet. His sentences are more complex, and he seems to understand us more. Everytime we looked for any of his toys or books, I would say " where is it? " and he would answer " I know. " Today, for the first time, I asked " where is the book? " and he didn't answer " I know " , but seemed to understand FOR THE FIRST TIME MY QUESTION! he had had only 2 aplications of the cream at that point! We also have noticed an increase in opositional behavior, though it seem to be related to yeast, (loose stools). So I am going to double probiotics. I am sharing this because someone may find it useful, even if it is not " PC " . I wish I could have gone ahead and chelate him as per Andy's protocol, which is what I am going to do for myself. But it has not been possible for us yet. In the future, when it becomes possible, I will do it, as I don't know if the DMPS is chelating and even if it is, I would want to use ALA for clearing his little brain.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I am so glad you posted this. I have been looking for someone that is using it. I am pretty close to where Buttar is and have considered going to him. just looking for some more feedback from his patients before I made the appt.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I am not sure if this is correct, but according to Dr. Buttar's protocol, I believe the TD-DMPS is applied once a day, not three times a day? nat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 In Buttar's protocol the cream is applied every every 48 hours, not every 24 h.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 I am also using this currently with my son. I wish I could say my non- verbal child is talking, he isn't, but his response time and multi- step commands are really amazing me since starting. We have done 10 on days, so 20 days of treatment so far. He is 4 1/2. Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 We got a set back. Today we have stopped the TD DMPS. We did notice progress, but the side effects are getting too much. We don't know if it is the DMPS or a virus perhaps finding easy immune system to tackle because of the DMPS. Or... redistribution. I am in day 2 of oral DMPS chelation, first round. For what I feel in my body and what I observe in my son, it seems to me that the TD DMPS does mess with the mercury, in which case giving it TD to him every 48 hours may be the cause of our problems. I don't know, at this point, what are we going to do, besides talking to the doctor about his symptoms. I am considering aplying the cream 3 times a day for three days straight, then rest. It is going to be a challenge, I can manage to aply the cream 2 times while he sleeps at night, but the 3rd daily aplication while awake can be a very diffucult thing... We will see. > I am also using this currently with my son.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 rather than applying it more often why not cut the amount of drops back to 1/2 until things settle down? m.l. > We got a set back.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I realize the correct answer is counterintuitive - that halving the dose is useless, but giving the stuff more often (even in a full dose) usually corrects the problem. No matter how you get it into people, you have to give DMPS every 8 hours or more often. If it takes a long time to absorb (uniknown for transdermal) then that can be added to 6 to get how long you can have between doses (that is, injections every 6, eating it every 8 which is 6 + 2 for how long it takes the intestines to do their thing).

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 > I could doubt what Dr. Buttar said about the results of his trial, > and on his son, after all, it could be a scam. I doubt it is a scam, and doubt most innacurate info people get from doc's in this field is intentional. The situatino you are describing is a very good one for trying transdermal DMPS. > I am sharing this because someone may find it useful, even if it is > not " PC " . Don't worry about PC on this list. We want real information (which you have provided, thank you!) and not propaganda. Besides, I'm not a moderator, can't throw you off if I wanted to, and the moderators very very very seldom toss people and then only the most ridiculously disruptive and out of control. Unlike the lists that pretend to be about information but are actually only about political correctness, this list really is solely here for the purpose of getting real information exchanged so that people can make good decisions on how to help their unfortunate children.

As explained in prior posts I find his reported results unlikely to be due to chelation alone. We'll see how it goes for people, but my basic feeling is that there are a lot of gullible people who blow with the wind. Hopefully it will turn out to be something useful, preliminary reports are interesting though it really is starting to look like every 8 hour dosing would be a really really really really good idea, not every other day. There are enough reports that sound like it is getting chelator into people, and enough that sound like what happens when you chelate on a random and inappropriate protocol that I think I would now encourage people using it to apply it every 8 hours.

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Andy, How does DMPS compare with DMSA regarding pulling out metals--is it any more efficient--is it any faster, than, say, if DMSA was transdermally applied?

This is one of the weaker constraints, said more because there are almost 50 years of clinical experience where it was invariably done this way and little experience with continuous use. I know of no fundamental reason you can't take it 100% of the time, but there is some chance the " tradition " is in fact based on such a reason. However a few people who for various reasons had to take it more of the time, up to 100%, did in fact do fine. I'd suggest sticking to half the time unless there is a very good reason to do otherwise. Andy . . . . . .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 I have recently been mixing DMSA and ALA in water and sipping it. I do this becasue I can not tolerate the full amounts that are indicated. When I first started the DMSA, the only way I could tolerate it was to put 1 capsule in 24 ounces of water and take baby sips. Even then it was giving me seizures at first. Most of the time I have been opening the capsules and putting small ammounts under the tongue. Do I hear, then, that by putting it in water makes it ineffective? ~Inga _________ on 9/23/04 1:42 AM, Dagmar at dagmarjahr@... wrote: From all I have learnt on this list, I would not use DMSA transdermally.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Inga, how much did you take? You can check the files section of this group, it recommends 1/8 to 1/2 of your body weight in pounds. So if you are 150lbs, you can take 20 mg to 75 mg every 3h.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 I am 220 lbs (When I first started the DMSA, I disolved 100 mg in 24 ounces and sipped it over a period of 3 days) After about 6 months of just DMSA, I am doing about 300 mg a day. I have taken very few small breaks at all because I was going into attacks when I stopped the DMSA. I have done 2 rounds of ALA (200mg) a day for 3 days Now I just did 1 round of ALA for two days and had severe pshychological disturbances. 1) Do you know if that means I am not ready for the ALA yet even after 6 months of DMSA? Also 2) Does putting either of them in water make them ineffective or less effective? 3) Is the fact that I have been unable to take breaks from the DMSA a majo problem? 4) I saw a doctor last week that told me the DMSA was depleating my vitamins an minerals. Somebody at this site told be the opposite today. (Last year, that doctor was giving me more EDTA treatmnets which I had to quit...Later I find out from Cutler that is a No-no.) Do you know which is true: DMSA depletes or does not deplete the body?

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 They are pretty similar, with the exception that DMPS is useless for lead, and somewhat better for arsenic than DMSA. Most people find the subjective experience of DMPS chelation a lot better than DMSA. Also DMPS has convenient 8 hour dosing. > Andy, > > How does DMPS compare with DMSA regarding pulling out metals--is it any more > efficient--is it any faster, than, say, if DMSA was transdermally applied? > > So why not create a DMPA/ALA cream > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMSA is OK for maybe half a day, but if the water is acidified (made sour or tart with lemon juice, or vitamin C in the ascorbic acid form, or vinegar) the DMSA lasts longer.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Dear Andy, Is it okay to give DMSA and ALA together at every 3 hr period for 3 days (including nights) and then take a break (4 days).

DMSA is OK for maybe half a day, but if the water is acidified (made sour or tart with lemon juice, or vitamin C in the ascorbic acid form, or vinegar) the DMSA lasts longer. ALA is OK indefnintely. > 3) Is the fact that I have been unable to take breaks from the DMSA a majo > problem? > > 4) I saw a doctor last week that told me the DMSA was depleating my vitamins > an minerals.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Andy, do you remember a paper I sent you that reported a study where DMPS was used to chelate kids with lead poisoning? You said that you thought it was a good study and you were keeping your mind open. Did you find new info that disputed this study? in Salt Lake City Utah Fw: [ ] Re: TD DMPS and Dr. Buttar They are pretty similar, with the exception that DMPS is useless for lead, and somewhat better for arsenic than DMSA. Most people find the subjective experience of DMPS chelation a lot better than DMSA. Also DMPS has convenient 8 hour dosing. > Andy, > > How does DMPS compare with DMSA regarding pulling out metals--is it any more > efficient--is it any faster, than, say, if DMSA was transdermally applied? > > So why not create a DMPA/ALA cream > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
