Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 We are using 50 mgs of DMSA for a 46 lb child. We always notice behavioral changes during and immediately after the cycle. Mostly we noticed yeast type behaviors-- more hyperactivity. But emotions are common, too. --- gingras440@... wrote: > Hello, I have been reading this list for at least 2 > years and have learned > so much.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 To a certain extent side effects are unavoidable. However they can be minimized by giving supplements like magnesium and vitamin C often, and using appropriate anti-yeast regimens.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 What dosing schedule? That's considered a high dose. Andy recommends 1/8-1/2 mg/lb.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 He doesn't have any mercury amalgam dental fillings, does he? S <tt> Hello, I have been reading this list for at least 2 years and have learned <BR> so much. I did a hair<BR> test approx a year ago and both my boys showed very high for lead. One is <BR> dx pdd-nos and apraxia and the other has no dx but can seem alittle <BR> aspi-ish....both did not meet the counting rules, although it was close(if I remember <BR> right). Anyway, I let fear stop me from trying chelation but have finally <BR> made the move to try it. We are doing dmsa, low dose (approx 20 mg....i am <BR> dividing myself...have vrp 100mg capsules)<BR> every 4 hours (3 days on, 11 off). This is only our 2nd round. My younger <BR> son seems very emotional and did the first 24 hrs of the last round too. He <BR> is 8 yrs old and weighs about 65 lbs. He is more autistic-like. I am <BR> staying on round but would appreciate any feedback.<BR> thanks.......rita<BR> <BR> <BR> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
