[Guest guest]

Hi Andy:

What do you think about Dr. Yasko testings and protocols? Appreciate your

response.

I am considering starting Yasko's protocol. This is because my son

breaks out in very painful mouth sores after several rounds of

chelation using Andy's method. Working with a RN using his protocol,

we have tried DMPS, DMSA, and ALA--all with the same results.

I am giving him super lysine and zinc. The mouth sores could also be

from a vit. B deficiency. Whenever we give him B6, his core issue of

handflapping is much worsened. He takes 1 sublingual of B12 and one

nasal spray of B12. It never fails that he gets these sores after 2

and the past several times, he broke out in sores after the second

day on ALA 25 mg. He is almost 13 and weighs 94 lbs.

That is my opinion and it's pretty obvious what my advice is.

You have to make your own decision. I'm not going to be upset or hold it

against you if

you go do something I don't think makes sense. I just hope for your kid's sake

you get

lucky and you end up doing something that works, and don't spend too much more

than

you have to in getting there.

Andy:

What I am most interested in is the genetic testing which will be more

specific for my child. Can that be done in a regular lab, if so, what are the

tests called? If not, maybe it's worth doing Yasko's genetic testing. What do

you think? I'm just tired of this guessing game and one size fits all.

Thanks

Jeanne

Once you have had the standard genetic work-up your mainstream doc's can

provide, you

have had everything that doesn't involve a lot of guessing game.

Beyond that there are the 2 questions of what the specific effects of the

alleles are, and

also whether the test is accurate or means anything. Accuracy (you actually

have the allele

they say you do) is apparentlyu a big issue and there is no real way to verify

it.

I have never found these tests to be helpful or informative and I have been VERY

VERY

interested in their potential utility.

The guessing game issue is mostly due to phsyician incompetence, partly due to

an actual

lack fo knowledge, and not at all due to any genetic issues that can be

elucidated by

testing.
