Guest guest Posted November 27, 2001 Report Share Posted November 27, 2001 I bought the book by Hal Huggins and read it in the nineties. One would think I would have looked at the book again. The doctor said she was board certified in chelation. I thought that faster might be better. I am not in dire straits or anything, not worse, just tired. I told her that I was tired and she responded (all this through office staff) that was expected. I would not do the DMPS so fast again, nor would I do so many. I think that I learned once again that I need to " listen to my body. " On about number 6 I was really groovin' and should have just stopped at six. Oh well, time usually takes care of these mishaps. On about 7 I began to not urinate very much and I recall wondering, if this is supposed to chelate through urine, I am not chelating " that way. " So, I began to drink more and still was not emptying bladder very much. I was so happy that I found someone to do the DMPS that I rather overlooked the medical side of it. I think in retrospect, that if you are not urinating during DMPS, that might indicate a problem. I could begin to feel fabulous in a few weeks. My main problem is currently the dirty air that surrounds me. I live in lawn spray, lawn mower central in the dirtiest spot int he Petroleum State and all these make me very sick. Until I move to clean air, I don't expect anything can help me with my neurotoxin issues. At least I did do the ten DMPS treatments and may not become entirely senile AS early as I might have.

I have not yet started the heavy chelation and I am very concerned about taking DMPS. Doctor Hal Huggins in his books IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD and UNINFORMED CONSENT says that alternative doctors always want people to chelate too fast and considers it very dangerous.

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 The evidence is that chelation following a pharmacokinetically correct protocol with agents that actually remove the mercury from the target organs makes people well. The other protocols (e. g. DMPS injections) just move the mercury around and the people get about as much better as if they didn't do anything once they got the mercury moving.

I am taking Immunocal, chlorella, b12 shots on and off, quercetin, gancyclovir, biaxin (last two for viral problems due to finding SV40 in serum from my polio vaccine), A, D, E, supplements, Co-Q10, 5 HTP, MSM, Now's Tri Amino with L-Arginine, L-Ornithine, L-Lysine, Now's Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Vitamin C, Max EPA Fish Oil, Omega 3 fish oil, Flax oil, Asparagus Extract, Vitamin C, (IV drip recently following ten DMPS treatments, of glutathione, trace minerals, B12, B6, C) and malic acid and bromase. I take Lovenox rather than heparin because the heparin is preserved. I must have alcohol dehydrogenase problems because all alcohol (both as preservative and as a drink) make me sick and always have. I have been told by Dr. Clement Furlong at U. Washington that I have low PON-1, (my attorney in case vs Dow sent my blood to Clem) which sets me up for both organophosphate injury and heart disease. I am one basket case, living mostly on the couch, and doing what I am able to do. I have sciatic nerve problems bone spur problems and a botched surgery for a pilonidal cyst in which the doctor left metal sutures (stainless steel) in that hurt so badly that I cannot ever sit or lie down comfortably. I was diagnosed with neurally mediated hypotension at Hopkins in 95 and MCS following ChemLawn spraying me in 1986. I am 49. I cannot even begin to imagine getting to 60. I have a son at Princeton University, my husband's alma mater. I was once most intelligent and creative. I still possess these characteristics, but I often cannot remember the beginning of the last sentence I read. I begin tasks and can't complete them. I have been absolutely unable to work for the past 15 years, mostly caring for my children. I engage in some of the behaviors you mention at your site; however, I am extremely odor sensitive, with symptoms upon all solvent exposures. I am disautonomic. Sweating stopped years ago, and returned with a protocol that began with Biaxin. I had horrible bowel problems. I had spent ten days at Dr. Rea's clinic following pesticide exposures. Hypotensive events follow hydrocarbon exposures, and this began following pesticide exposures. I had a tooth filled with mercury during pregnancy. That child is chemically sensitive, but an honor student and attends an Ivy League college. He is odor sensitive and has bowel dysfunction. I would say that two leading Gulf War Researchers, two pesticide researchers, a cancer specialist (I don't have cancer--he is however helping) and several doctors have really tried to help me and I am only minimally functional. I also tried the Nash Petrovic protocol, which I'd do again. I remember when I got sick. I had ten fillings placed, worked as an artist/photographer and my darkroom was sprayed with pesticides. My heart bothered me, I lost weight and I felt as though there were tight band around my knees from front to back, (this at night). I sought care and was told I had rheumatic fever and put on antibiotics and later told that I had nothing wrong that could be found. I developed arthritis from this episode, that became apparent on X-ray two years following. I was 19 years old. I improved, finished college, got married after working as a systems analyst for EDS and then had all the fillings redone, while under nitrous oxide, which allows the BBB to breach and with it the mercury vapor. See research study Ben , Israel, regarding Nitrous Oxide and West Nile Virus on PubMed. I am going to start taking Alpha Lipoic Acid once every four hours round the clock. I have Bluebonnet 100 mg. supplements. If there is anything else I should do, I would like advice. Thanks, Jannarone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 DMPS is supposed to attach to mercury, but it does chelate other metals. For example, it probably has an affinity for iron, which in most of our cases might actually help with our viral problems, because viruses like iron-rich environments, especially ones with thick sluggish blood, anerobic style, like mine was. EDTA is supposed to chelate out primarily lead, but it also chelates other metals. This is what I have read at the doctor's office. I am certainly no authority on either of these; however, EDTA made me sick the first try. DMPS made me feel better until I hit about number 6 or 7. I believe that one member of the list is suggesting alpha lipoic acid. This might be safer. I don't have further information on this. I do know that my DMPS chelation followed years of antioxidant use and that I had already done the oral Hal Huggins protocol in the early nineties. I did that when I had my fillings redone. You begin with supplements and take them throughout the treatment. I did not get worse, nor did I get better. However, I was better then, than I am now, following recent DMPS chelation therapy. Only time will tell. Sometimes months may pass and I can feel better. I fear that my recent DmPS only moved the mercury around, probably to kidneys. sJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 I did have an IV of trace minerals and am taking trace minerals. I don't want to put too much back in because I believe that some of our bulk multiple vitamins contain substances that might not be good, so I am eating organic food, hoping to regain trace minerals through nutrition. sj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 I am not sure how DMPS works. Does it attach to all metals or just mercury? Because if it attaches to all metals you may have depleted your supply of trace elements during the treatments. Maybe someone else can help me out here.
