Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Our doctor wants to do a challenge test to check for metals, and wants to use DMPS for the challenge. (She'll use DMSA if we need to chelate). We only need 500mg for the test. I'm a single mom and we have no insurance that will cover this. Does anyone know an economical way to get the DMPS? Our doc is willing to order it so that isn't a problem, I'm just looking for a way to get it without having to sell a kidney or something...*grin* Thanks in advance for any help! jodi ><}}}> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asked how I got his phone number, and when I told him you had posted it on the internet to an autism group, he seemed really excited for the chance to help parents help their autistic kids!! He also said you're an " expert on this stuff " ...quite a compliment from such a smart guy!

In addition, let me note that they can be dangerous, and that 500 MG is a high dose. I'm sorry I did not answer your question-- I don't really know where is cheapest-- I've heard The Falls pharmacy is pretty good, and I've heard prices discussed but I have not kept track.
