No gains so far - Andy and others, help!

July 30, 2008

My son will be turning 4 year old next month. We started chelation on

AC protocol from April 2008. Initially we were doing both DMSA and

ALA. Later per the hair element test results, Andy Cutler suggest to

focus on the Copper treatment - since my son had high copper level.

My son does not meet the counting rule - per the hair element test

results. But since no Mercury showed up in the result and he had

elevated Aluminum, Antimony, and Tin, this suggests that he is holding

on to the mercury and mercury is also causing these other heavy metal

retention.

Anyway, for copper, we're giving our son, 75 mg of Zinc every day plus

Molybdenum 1500 mcg every day. In addition we're giving Taurine and

PhosphatidylCholine. Since we started Copper treatment, we started

doing chelation every other week, before we were doing it every

weekend. Also we have dropped ALA, since it hinders the copper excretion.

Now my concern here is; we're not seeing any gains. He is pretty much

the same child. When yeast is in control he is easy going but when the

yeast becomes a beast we see unwanted giggles, running around and

shouting. We treat yeast with GSE, Biotin, and Probiotics.

I am pretty sure and the hair test also suggested that my son is

mercury and copper toxic, so that means, I'm on the right track. But

how long would we have to wait to see major gains? What's the maximum

on this forum that a kid has responded to chelation? What we really

like to see in our son is getting some verbal - he is still non-verbal

and does not responds to his name and follow directions. If he needs

anything, he would take our hand and take us to the thing he wants.

That means, he knows what he needs but does not speak out.

Sometimes we feel so helpless not seeing any gains at all. But on the

other hand, we know that it is mercury and he does fit into the

spectrum so, he should respond some day... but when, we don't know.

By they way, we also tried the anti-viral treatment plus the high dose

vitamin A protocol - that also did not produce any gains.

Please advice. We need some encouragement.

Thank you,
