Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Well, don't know what got rid of them here, dmsa or ala or dmps, but they left, we had intermittent monoclonic jerks. They were slight, dd didn't even notice them until we were looking at old videos of my dgd, but, bottom line, they are gone. They are not permanent brain damage, but symptomatic of heavy metal poisoning, once the metals leave, so do they. [ ] Neurological twitches...will they go away with chelation???? The spazzy little neurological things like fist clenching, teeth grinding, jerky movements, restlessness...can getting heavy metals out really make these go away? They seem like they are " permanent damage " stuff that was done to his brain....do these things only go away with ALA because it crosses that blood brain barrier? Did TD-DMPS, on my way to TD-DMSA...any suggestions? I just want him to calm down...HELP! ======================================================= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 So far, our one neuro " total body clench " has not disappeared. We've only been chelating for about 7 months total; 2 with ALA. My son tightens his entire body and quivers when he is extremely anxious or excited. At one point, he would make fists, bend his arms in front of his face and tighten his arms to strongly they'd shake. That is gone. Interestingly, that appeared during a week last summer where we took a supplement holiday. It went away after being back on supps for a week. Not sure what that was all about. I hope this goes away. Like you, I worry about the permanence of things. Our neuro tics developed well after the dx of Autism was given.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Have you had an EEG done? Many mercury poisoned children suffer from low-level seizure activity.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 These are signs the nervous system is short circuiting due to heavy metal toxicity. One parent had been on TD-DMSA for 18 months but her 5 yr old still grind his teeth. Within two weeks on NCD Zeolite, this disappeared. This is described in one of the recordings at www.zeoliteautismstudy.com <http://www.zeoliteautismstudy.com> Forrist > > The spazzy little neurological things like fist clenching, teeth > grinding, jerky movements, restlessness...can getting heavy metals out > really make these go away?

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 That's interesting. Do you think this person should forego having an EEG done based on your son's negative results?

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 I had to get rid of my projection screen tv because my body would become so tight. LCD screens dont cause me to have that problem. You might want to see what it does to him both around the tv and not around the tv.

For my kids, teeth grinding is improper zinc/copper ratio. Most kids need zinc, so try adding that and see if it helps. Also for my kids, chelation did not do as much as for other kids. Basically, it removed food and supplement intolerances, and gut-yeast. All the other improvements were caused by the addition of supplements once they were tolerated. But the chelation allowed them to be tolerated, so it was essential. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
