's experience

HI, my 5yo NT daughter is off/on but more on " oppositional " and has

sensory sensitivities that I always said was " shyness " , but I

believe there is more to it. Also has ADD from my recent reading.

What chelation protocol are you using and what were any side

effects? I know everyone is different and I am well-read on

protocols and just started myself on low dose of 6mg DMSA every 4

hours for two days now with no effects. I got a hair test for us,

but not the DDI so I can't do the counting rules until I redo the

test. Kids were high out of range on tin, antimony, arsenic. Just

interested in more information of your experience. Thanks!
