Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Hi Darci, There is really only 1 way to find out for sure. Give a small amount of GSE and see what happens, if nothing, give some more and see what happens. Wait a few days and watch for a reaction, if you get one, then it probably wasn't the DMSA, if not then onto testing the DMSA. Try doing the same thing with the DMSA, small dose, wait 4 hours, another small dose, until you feel that you have given enough to feel confident that he has had enough that you think he would likely react again. Then wait till the next round and see if anything happens in between rounds again. I am not an expert, but it seems like trial and elimination would be the only way to know for sure. Just do it in low doses and watch carefully. (I am assuming you were giving the proper dosage when it happened before) Good Luck !

Hi there, I just wanted to run something by those of you who have delt with virus'. Two days following our second round of DMSA chelation my son broke out in a horrible case of hives. It didn't effect his respitory system, thankfully, however his whole face was swollen and they were all over his trunk, groin area, and moved around on his arms and back. Today is the first day since Nov. 30th that I haven't seen a hive on his body. The worst part was over after about 6 days, but they still continued to pop up every day for an hour or two. We had never given GSE before starting to chelate. Could this have been a virus leaving his body? I played around with his supplements and food to see if may have been something he was eating or taking but it didn't seem to be any specific thing triggering the hives. I was just sitting here thinking and a virus popped into my head as maybe a possiblility or maybe chelating triggered something to rid his body. I am a little nervious to start chelating again because I am not sure if maybe it was a reaction to the DMSA, even though it was 2 days after his last dose. I did just get his hair results back and he has high copper (which I posted), so it may be a while to get that down before I chelate again. Any thoughts would be great.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 What filler is in the DMSA? What route, dose, and dosing schedule are you using? I presume he has NO mercury amalgam dental fillings. Does he have problems with high phenol items? My understanding is that GSE is high phenol.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 My son did six rounds of DMSA. We did various schedules but he always reacted to it, which is not necessarily a bad thing in my opinion. One reaction was hives. I personally do think it is viral related. After the dust settled he did make gains but it was pretty hairy there for a while. > > Hi there, > > I just wanted to run something by those of you who have delt with > virus'.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Hi , I use the VRP and the other ingrediants are microcrstalline cellulose and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. I am not sure if my son has phenol issues. I do give him no fenol with every meal and I did give no fenol with the GSE as well. He has no fillings. He is very high in copper but also high in molybdenum, so I am trying to figue out what to do to lower the copper. I already give 75 mg of zinc a day, however I have only been giving 3 doses and I am going to move to 4 doses today. I give the zinc away from calcium because from what I understand it fights with calcium for absorbtion. I have read that GSE can kill off virus' so that is why I thought maybe the GSE was killing a virus, but I guess hives is an allergic reaction so maybe not. We have been doing some energy work as well so maybe that is doing some clearing. I am just glad the hives are gone so I can get back to chelating. My feeling is that it wasn't the DMSA itself causing the hives, but maybe it triggered something to come out, I don't really know. Trying again I think is my only option, carefully of course. I was already giving just 5mg per dose and my son is 38-39 lbs. He is very toxic though. Any recommendations for getting the copper out when the Molybdenum is high as well? Thanks so much.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Thanks Neil, I am going to try again, I was just waiting for the hives to be gone before trying again. Then I found out yesterday from his hair tests that his copper is very high, and his molybdenum, so now I am going to deal with that first. I was only giving 5mg of DMSA per dose and my son is 38-39 lbs. Thanks so much.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Hi , I do feel my son has made some gains just from the two rounds we have done. I just found it weird that the hives came 2 days after stopping the DMSA so that is what made me feel it wasn't the DMSA itself but something (like a virus) it triggered to come out. How long did the hives last for your son? Did you wait until they were gone to chelate again? Thanks so much.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Hi Dana, It did not look like the picture you sent. It looked like typical hives, like a raised welt, and they moved around his body. His trunk and face were like scratch paper, maybe from itching, but I think he had some other rash too. I was giving GSE as well as many other supplements but not OLE if thats what you ment by anti- virals. Today is the second day he has had no hives pop up since Nov. 30th. Thanks, Darci > > son broke out in a horrible case of hives.
