Re: DMSA 6mg

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I also feel better on rounds than off, but my doctor

wants me to take breaks, so I will keep on this way.

I went up to 8mg for one round and afterwards I felt

worse than usual. So I decided to go back to 6mg and

stay there for awhile. I am on round 7. If symptoms

increase in a linear fashion but excretion does not, I

say it is best to take your time. Feeling worse for a

15% increase in excretion doesn't make sense.

In general, I use this group as a substitute for the

trials and studies which one wishes one could consult

concerning the effects of chelators. If I hear from

20 people who say that chlorella made them sick, 100mg

DMSA was too much, chelating with their filings in was

bad, etc., etc., I conclude the masses have spoken.

So far I haven't heard from enough human guinea pigs

who have tried continuous low-dose chelation. So I

will keep shooting in the dark with 3 days on/3 days

off for now.

On the other hand I do think that people's conclusions

are often presented here with a greater air of

certaintly than would be warranted given our real

state of knowledge concerning chelation. The

reduction in the recommended inital dose of DMSA is

one example.

All the best,

Dave
