Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 So far I have mostly chelated with DMPS because I have a huge problem with remembering things in the daytime, and it was impossible to wake at night and be alert enough to take pills. I chelated for almost 2 years, and during that time the DMPS definitely reduced body burden because my hair test normalized, and I have been able to tolerate increased doses of chelators. I am much more severely poisoned than most, and the mercury must be in critical locations because I have almost no normal adrenal function left. I am only able to function because of hormone replacement. My major exposures to mercury were huge, and mostly 30 years or so ago. I also had some serious set backs (during the last 3 years) that I think were more related to my poor adrenals than to chelation - heat stroke, an infection, a colon problem, and pain (not sure what is causing this pain). The pain is interfering with my ability to walk, and that is driving me on because I cannot afford to lose any more mobility. I think that the only possible way that I will beat the pain that I am in is with ALA chelation. I have finally started ALA. (I had tried ALA for a few rounds at various times in the past, with much difficulty). I am using a dose of 12.5 mg, every 3 h, and I made it through the past 2 nights!! It was a family effort - everyone helped out to wake me at various times. The 3-4 AM dose was the most difficult - it took 3 alarm clocks plus my son to pull it off. I learned that I need to sit up and drink a full glass of water or else I will get some burning. Now that I have started I want to keep going and chelate with ALA as much as possible. It is like looking at a mountain that I have to climb, and looking back at some hills that I already made it through. It is so much more fun to scale mountains with the support of others, and I am so thankful for everyone who has helped me along the way.
