Guest guest Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 One thing I find is journaling helps. Whenever we try a new supplement or therapy, I try to write down what we are using or trying. If there are noticable results I try to write it down. For parents who are skeptical chelation works, nothing is going to help unless parents are willing to try, or believe it MIGHT help, and then try. As for us, we tried, and though supplements have brought on a number of easing of symptoms of deficiencies, there were NO COGNITIVE GAINS, NO RECEPTIVE LANGUAGE GAINS, NO SOCIAL GAINS, no fine motor gains that were not attributed to ala chelation (coupled with other detoxifiers or supportive supplements at times). This is to clearly say things I was truly hoping to see in my son in awareness, in mental stability (verses tantruming, and zoning out and inappropriate habits--linging things up, fixations on colors, in appropriate sounds and laughter), none of these things got any better until we chelated. He got better digestive health with enzymes and such, but each time cognitive, behavior and social things bettered he was definitely on chelation. Sometimes the benefits lasted only a day, or half day, or two days, and then I realized I was getting tuckered out towards the end of rounds, forgetting timings, and sleeping through doses. Once I checked myself on that and even increased the frequency of ala dosing, gains were retained each round. Each round takes a LOT out of me! I'll be honest about that. So we don't do them as often as i would like. But I'll say one thing, once I see results, it isn't long before something that I don't believe he HAS to live with is noticed and I'll get back into the chelation swing as fast as my strength will allow! Again, I watch for changes each round, and I know as a parent when changes occurred, and what we were doing at that time. On a down side, my son didn't potty train until age 5. He would let me know he needed a pull-up change, but going to the potty was like another world. Two weeks of fgf and he was potty trained, no accidents. I know what we were doing different during that time. FGF. It helped in that area where chelation was either " slow " or " null " !
