I just don't know what is causing the overwhelming

tiredness and nauseating headache and fatigue. It's all far worse than

normal.

TK---- Try taking it every 3.5hr or every 3hr and see if that is any

better

, 3 days on and four days off.

TK--- You may need to take a few more days off

I am

> on Armour for thyroid

TK--- how much and dosing so people may try and help ?

, 5mgs Prednisolone

TK--- dosing schedule so people can try and help ? 5mg pred is the

same as 20mg HC

and all Andy's recomended

TK--- as recommended ? 3-4 times a day ? B-12 injections ?

TK--- Are you sure all amalgam has been removed ? Under crowns ?

--- Thanks.

Will try those suggestions.

I am on 1 3/4 grains Armour and 50mcgs Levothyroxine.

Everything else as per Andy except the B12 injections. My B12 is fine

and I was on high sublingual doses for many months.

: I, too, had the overwhelming tiredness and fatigue the day

after chelation. Gradually, it has lessoned. Now, I only get the

fatigue two days after stopping my rounds. And it only lasts a few

hours. I just finished my 26th round.

Reading what others have posted daily, as well as using the search

feature has been invaluable for me in my chelation. You'll find that

TK, , , Dean, and many others on this forum give sound

and sensible advice. Sometimes, we even get a special treat and Andy

answers a post.

I had to start out at a 50 mg tab, cut into sixths and am now at 50 mg,

ALA and 25 mg DMSA. I really respect the low dose chelation protocol.

Jodi,

These are all adrenal symptoms. You may be coming down with a virus

or perhaps you are really stressed right now. Can you pinpoint a

source of stress? Exposed to grouchy people perchance? You may just

need to rest up. Do you use the diet strategies for adrenals that

ANdy mentions in his book? Is there any way you could switch to Cortef?
