I agree with Colette. It sounds a lot like reflux. Are you taking

your ALA in a capsule? Make sure you do that and also take it with

food. If you don't take with food, you could at least try taking

with something alkaline like mag citrate or sodium bicarb.

To soothe the discomfort, you could try some slippery elm. That's

what I did when I had similar problems.

Did the acupuncturist look at your tongue? If you have reflux I

think you would probably have a red tipped tongue.

Acupuncture is good for reducing inflammation, which reflux will

cause.

If you take C on an empty stomach, make sure it is buffered C,

not ascorbic acid.

I hope the suggestions above help you feel better. If you feel

like you can't continue the round, I would suggest dropping the

ALA, but continue with DMSA for the rest of the round.
