Guest guest Posted July 26, 2006 Report Posted July 26, 2006 That's great that you're using low, frequent dosing. It's silly to test every round, chelation takes a while. Are you seeing positive results by observation of behaviors, social interaction, etc? Are you paying for all this testing? Consider chelating on your own and save the testing money. S S <p>My son just finished his 5th round of chelation using oral dmsa every <br> 4 hours. His dr. wants a urine toxic metals test done the third day<br> (last day) of each round. I have gotten the results from 2 tests so <br> far. And he is pulling mercury, but it's in the green zone. What I am <br> thinking is that he probably is pulling way more mercury than what the <br> test is showing. Simply because the test is only being done in the <br> morning after the very last dose. So, what do you all think? I really <br> want to have his hair tested, his baby hair to see if it might show <br> what he was exposed to at almost 2 years or so. <br> His dr.'s nurse said that since the mercury levels were so low that <br> his dr. might want to add ALA. I won't do it. He's only just finished <br> round 5. But I haven't talked to her yet either so maybe I am just <br> worrying needlessly.<br> I also have to talk to his DAN! dr. soon and i'm going to have to tell <br> her that i'm giving him the low dosage instead of 100mg every 4 hours. <br> I don't know if she'll like that but there's no way i'm giving him <br> that much at his age and weight.<br> _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2006 Report Posted July 26, 2006 I have noticed good things. He is getting over his insecurities. He can now ride a bicycle w/training wheels. And just today I heard him ask, what's spongebob doing? what's doing?. So yes, we are seeing good things little by little with the low dosage. No, we are not paying out of pocket for the urine tests, otherwise i would say no to them. Why test so often? > <p>My son just finished his 5th round of chelation using oral dmsa every <br> > 4 hours.
