Nahla, I know my doctor is very successful with EDTA in this

situation. I'd want to do DSMA & ALA first for mercury, but it is my

understanding she'd need the EDTA therapy for the calcium deposits.

It will be really important to get some help here on her mineral

issues (hair testing) so she adjusts her diet & gets supplements like

Mg if needed to stop the calcium deposit process.

It's really great she's able to address the dental issue before

plunging in. I assume a lot of people get EDTA treatments with

amalgams in place - wouldn't this accelerate amalgam breakdown?

I hope she has a great outcome & wish more people knew about & had

access to this form of treatment.

Hi Nahla,

Even if she does use EDTA at some point, it should be used orally and not

via IV.

Andy does mention situations where it is indicated, and suggests using it in

the same way as we would ALA and DMSA, according to its half life.

I tried oral EDTA after about 8 months of Chelation with DMSA and then

DMSA/ALA.

I got head pains (and mercury symptoms in the head). So I got scared off,

stopped the round and haven't tried again..

Nahla,

EDTA should not be used until the mercury is gone.

My shoulders (tendonitis) are much improved since starting

chelation. I don't know what kind of deposits were in

there, but stuff used to grind around in there and it is

a lot quieter now than it used to be

Maybe she would get some benefit from mercury chelation.

Before chelating, I got a lot of control over symptoms with

physical therapy, castor oil packs, and various pain management

measures.

In my research, I have read that chelation therapy will remove this

ionic form of calcium from her joints as well as her arteries. I

believe the recommendation is EDTA via IV...30 or more treatments.

I think this is an important point. Perhaps calcium is building up because

their is mercury messing with its normal transport.

I would get the mercury out first.

There are too many unknown factors the other ways around.

Her issues with her teath are amalgams but also root canals and a crown over

amalgam...so maybe she would be better able to tolerate EDTA after a few months

of Andy's protocol.?

BUT I also know what mercury can do the joints.
