chelation question for a friend

[Guest guest]

Hey, I have a dear friend who knows that I live on this group and has

asked me to help her find answers from you wonderful experienced

parents. Her son is 5-1/2 years old and is a patient of Dr. Usman.

He regressed around age 2. She is very strict with GFCF and her son

has no gut issues. (lucky mom!)

They initially did DMPS-Buttar style for a year with no results. She

was very discouraged, so I told her all about Andy Cutler, dmsa/ala

combo, etc. She switched to dmsa/ala. She doses her son 3 days on/4

days off, but doses every 8 hours instead of every 3 hours. I gave

her all of the info from the files section on this list.

She wants to know if anyone here had done DMPS without any results,

then switched to dmsa/ala with positive reports? And if so, is

there anyway to gage how long she will need to continue chelation on

dmsa/ala, even if she did dmps for a year? She is also doing IV-

EDTA's.

Any thoughts? Also, if for some reason her son remains " stuck " and

doesnt seem to be excreting, even with Andy's protocol, any

suggestions would be very helpful.

By the way, her son is well supplemented with all minerals/vitamins,

mb-12 injections etc.

Thanks! Kim
