Re: STARTING ALA-comments and questions

[Guest guest]

I too think I have gone through bad reaction due to likely too high

dose of ala (25mgs every 3 hrs with 15 mgs of dmps evry 3 hours)) and

still having too high body/blood stores of mercury

i am having very bad head symptoms (anxiety, depression, head fog

fatigue burning in hands, feet, heart, head)..just want to lay in bed

and cry/pray..was actually pretty good mid way through these rounds

(have done 2)

I spent the last two days reading through sections in AI as it is so

valuable

I know in my case and probably many others our bodies are toxic...

probably more toxic now (post amalagms) as stores of mercury get

released after removal. I know that now (post amalgam removal) I get

mercury symptoms after massage (burning, aches, fatigue), so i guess

it will just have to be more gentle dpms/dmsa

pg 204:

" Problem. lipoic acid isn't a one way street. It just makes it easier

for mercury to go back and forth between the blood and the brain. If

you have a lot in the brain, then taking LA will help...However if

you have more in the blood stream than in the brain and you take LA,

it will move it into the brain "

pg 202

" NB: since lipoic acid allows mercury to move through nerve cell

membranes, using it when there is a high blood level of mercury...

can lead to redistribution of large amounts of mercury into the

nervous system with consequent exacerbation of symptoms "

so i guess its no ala for a while...somewhere in here (AI) I also

found some of the symptoms of what i remember to be bad effects of

I guess wrong dosages of dmsa and dmps

I am trying vitamin c and more mag (as suggests) as in my case

the mercury seems to be not getting out through my bowels as i get

constipated..so hopefuly this will help

any thoughts

Good luck

Two words, : Raisin Bran. The fiber of the bran and raisin have helped

me to keep things moving, so to speak. I have only been off of a high fiber

diet once during chelation, and it was a rough time, not being able to eliminate

the mercury that was being released. I really think it redistributed because it

was too long in the intestines, so I make it a point to never be without fiber.

Best,

Robyn
