It's great that you're noticing some improvements, even if they

don't last. It means something is happening. I think you will need

to be careful and persistent with chelation to keep moving forward.

Going too fast or making mistakes can cause you to move backward.

course I hope my

DMSA helps to suppress side effects caused by ALA. I encourage

you to consider increasing your DMSA dose first to about 25 mg

before adding ALA. This can make the ALA more tolerable.

25 mg is a HUGE dose of ALA to start with. I am still using 12.5 mg

ALA after 2.5 years of chelation. You can make yourself worse by

starting with too high a dose. Given your degree of impairment,

I suggest no more than 5 mg of ALA when you start it.

ALA is certainly the chelator you need to remove mercury from

the deeper spaces where it is lodged, particularly in the brain

and other tissues (spinal cord, nerves, etc). However, it is

very powerful and you need to start with a small amount, possibly

adjusting it lower depending on how you feel during rounds and at

the end of rounds.

When you find a tolerable dose, you need to stick with it for a

few months, at least, before increasing. When you are ready for

a dose increase, take care not to raise it too fast. Raising by

no more than 50% is appropriate. You may need to raise in smaller

increments.
