Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 , I've had those sensitivities, and many more for at least 20 years now. As you probably know, there are times when you can't determine what you're reacting to. In my opinion, the process of chelation will often be difficult to determine too (I haven't started chelating yet), but it should be more obvious, at least initially. I'm expecting the first round to be the easiest to pinpoint stuff initially because it will be the first time your body's going through the process and if there are delayed reactions, they will be more obvious too, I think. From everything I've gathered in reading this list for about 14 months now (plus reading AI), there can be delayed reactions to the process, and determining what you're reacting to, even withOUT MCS, can be difficult. Everyone is individual, some people react to one or another or all chelating agents, some people feel better on rounds, some people feel worse, some people have severe reactions to things, others have mild, it's all one giant puzzle, and that's the reason this godsend of a list exists: there are helpful, knowledgeable people here to help through the process, to try and figure out what's actually going on with each of us individually. I know that I won't be able to do this without the list, that's for sure. So, to me, this process, although very specific and complicated, will be the same kind of rollercoaster ride having environmental sensitivities is: there will be immediate reactions to things, cross-over reactions, delayed reactions and so forth, which is often the case with reactions to environmental and food triggers too. It's the nature of the human body and our individual make-up. : Donna >> Lee wrote: If you have chemical and fragrance sensitivity, how do you tell if >>your side effects are from the chelation or reactions from the >>chemical/fragrance sensitivity?

I often can't be sure if it's food or a fragrance that brought on a reaction, so guess I will just have to dive in! Deborah, thanks for your input too. It really helps to feel supported with this. Be well, Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
