Re: Rages, Tears and Tantrums [teaching]

What should be done if a child could only have chelation in the school

holidays?. Mandi reminded us about the cascade that gets going once chelation

has been started that could you leave you even worse off if chelation with

proper support isn't kept up for any reason. Once you've had the first dose is

that, well, it and you just have to keep going? (Is the cascade one of the

reasons a challenge dose is so dangerous?)

Or is it safe to start and then to stop if, for example, the parent can't keep

it up?

Thanks,

Margaret

I be inclined to say not to start - is he going weekly now? Every other weekend would be fine if he's with his day that often but months in between better to start with zeolites which may do summat, they helped here but no idea if that was with metals, it was more than ammonia mop up for sure

If you know mercury is an issue, then you'd want to be very aware of what you're

getting started. I can't remember how the holidays work in the UK anymore, but

what I might be inclined to do is start near the beginning of the longest one

and chelate as much as possible during that time. Maybe using dmps during that

time would make a lot of chelation possible (easier dosing schedule). You have

to keep supplements in mind--I wouldn't start chelation until the child had been

on supps for a week (this would be bare minimum under trying circumstances--more

like two weeks is better).

If you do see him weekends, then I would get started and do your best to have

him taking a decent multi during the week. An rx would make that possible.

You don't want to postpone indefinitely, but you also don't want to make things

much more difficult. There is likely not going to be a perfect solution.
