question re: Chelation with DMSA

[Guest guest]

Hey, I recall getting a lot of great advice when starting chelation

from this group. We started about 3 months ago (mid october) with TD-

DMSA. We are doing 3 on/11 off, dosing every 4 hours. We start our

9th round tonight.

We did a stool test last round and just got the results. Berrilium

was in the red, some other metals in the yellow. Mercury was just a

blip in the green. Bummer!

Is this normal for after 8 rounds of chelation? The improvements

have been a true roller coaster ride...up and down. Great weeks

followed by " what happened to that great week? " type of stuff.

Does it get better as you proceed? Do rounds 11-20 show even better

improvements, or is this an indicator that things will go slowly?

And finally, has anyone had a slow start with dmsa, then added ALA to

see better overall improvements? From what I have read, ALA is the

best for mercury!

Thanks everyone!
