Re: Re: Starting chelation tonight 12.5 mg dmps oral every 8 hours

[Guest guest]

Hi Doug -- Sounds like you've gotten lots of great tips already, and supposedly

you started already, so I hope it's going well. Please give us a report when

you get a chance, and congratulations for taking the leap of faith and giving it

a go! Prayers and good wishes are with you.

Top Five, probably some repetition:

1---If you're using DMPS, I agree with that more frequent dosing might be

needed. I also dose every 6 hours and prefer that to 8.

2--Find the dose that works for you and don't worry about what others are doing.

When I started out with DMSA, I felt really good on rounds at 12.5mg, and had to

stay there a long time, but I didn't mind because I felt good. If I tried a

higher dose too soon, then I didn't feel good and wanted to stay in bed. So

sticking to the right dose and not trying to increase too fast was important for

me. I'd rather be functional and take longer than to not be functional.

3--Wish I would have figured out the hormone stuff sooner, and probably still

don't have it all figured out yet, but adrenal support was huge for me. My

other hormones, like progesterone, etc., are out of whack too, and supporting

them has helped alot also, so more than just adrenals and thyroid, all hormones.

So saliva testing was very useful in my case.

4--Hair test was very informative, that's how I found out I had arsenic besides

mercury. So I think it's good to know what all you're dealing with. The

arsenic was in my well water, so I got a distiller. Also had an all low

profile, so definitely needed digestive aids. Met 2, almost 3, counting rules,

so definitely have a mercury problem also.

5--Take your supplements and keep working on what you need. May change over

time. The more things you address, the better you'll feel. I had extremely low

ferritin and low Vit D. Everything helps.

6--Last but not least, chelate, chelate, chelate, and then chelate some more!

Ok, I better stop, but glad to see you finally got on the chelation horse! Good

luck-----------Jackie

Just one - if you aren't sure you like every 8 h, try every 6 h. I

found that a bit better, and it works ok for me sleeping through the

night because I take my last dose about 12 - 1 am and first dose about

7 am.
