Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I am 3.5 months amalgam free now. I just completed round 8. 6mg DMSA every 3 hours, 3 days on 4 days off, even waking at night. My first few rounds where difficult, with plenty of symptoms and problems whilst I discovered I am a fast metaboliser and needed to increased the dosing frequency and lower the dose to 6mg. (I started at 12.5mg every 4 hours) But the last 4 rounds have been easier and easier until I would say they are almost completely symptom free now, both on and off round. Which is obviously great news. Also, I am feeling better and better as the weeks go by. Last week I had 2 days on the trot where I felt like a normal person. It's been a LONG time since I could say that. But saying that, I still have a way to go, I still get bad days along with the good. Q: what do I do next? 1) Add ALA? If so what dose? 3mg? 6mg? 2) Increase the DMSA dose to 8mg? 3) Do nothing…stay where I am at 6mg? Usually I instinctively know what I should do next, but now…..i really don't know what to do. I want to just stay at 6mg because it's easy and i'm in the groove. I want to add ALA because I know I will have to sooner or later, but the thought of more pain and hassle figuring out the right dose…..i don't need! I want to increase the dmsa dose to increase the amount of mercury excreted…but again….potential pain It's a scary business this, I never want to go back to the bad old days ever ever again.
