Re: Any danger in continuing the round of DMSA/ALA

[Guest guest]

Hi Helen

I don't have the answer to your questions regarding the chelation. But I would

be worried about the tops getting stuck somehwere inside. In the Sydney Morning

Herald a day ago they had a story about a person who swallowed an uncrushed

bottle top and it was showing up on an x-ray.THey had the x-ray picture on the

story.

I would take him to the dr.

Hi all,

I wrote earlier in the day but received no reply. My son has swallowed 2 metal

beer bottle tops and I was asking if it was dangerous to continue the DMSA/ALA

round. I was worried about possible heavy metal re distribution, but as I have

received no reply I am assuming it is OK to keep going with no danger. Is that

right? and I am continuing the round. Please let me know if I should do

otherwise.

I searched to see if I could find what metals bottle caps are made of,

and I haven't been able to find that out so far. If it was me, I

would stop the round. And, I would seek the advise of a medical

doctor. It is possible the caps will pass, and it is also possible

that they will become lodged somewhere.

I would also stop the round and see a doctor.

A friend of ours swallowed one in a drinking game and needed surgery

to have his removed. His was blocking his airway.

Good luck! Sorry you have to deal with this.
