What to do next?

[Guest guest]

I am 3.5 months amalgam free now. I just completed round 8. 6mg DMSA

every 3 hours, 3 days on 4 days off, even waking at night. My first

few rounds where difficult, with plenty of symptoms and problems

whilst I discovered I am a fast metaboliser and needed to increased

the dosing frequency and lower the dose to 6mg. (I started at 12.5mg

every 4 hours)

But the last 4 rounds have been easier and easier until I would say

they are almost completely symptom free now, both on and off round.

Which is obviously great news.

Also, I am feeling better and better as the weeks go by. Last week I

had 2 days on the trot where I felt like a normal person. It's been a

LONG time since I could say that. But saying that, I still have a way

to go, I still get bad days along with the good.

Q: what do I do next?

1) Add ALA? If so what dose? 3mg? 6mg?

2) Increase the DMSA dose to 8mg?

3) Do nothing…stay where I am at 6mg?

Usually I instinctively know what I should do next, but now…..i

really don't know what to do.

I want to just stay at 6mg because it's easy and i'm in the groove.

I want to add ALA because I know I will have to sooner or later, but

the thought of more pain and hassle figuring out the right dose…..i

don't need!

I want to increase the dmsa dose to increase the amount of mercury

excreted…but again….potential pain

It's a scary business this, I never want to go back to the bad old

days ever ever again.
