Guest guest Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 How does hair level lead relate to blood level? I read that chelating lead can be dangerous because it will cause blood levels to go up making symptoms worse and will cause renal damage on the way out. I am worried that I may have stirred up lead while trying to chelate mercury by adding DMSA and it is causing some pains on and off for my son - most recently in his knees. We have only done a couple rounds of DMSA and I stopped almost 3 weeks ago because of the pains. I don't know whether to continue or just keep on doing ALA only? Anyone have experience with lead? We have a pediatrician who has taken a blood test, but we don't know the results yet. KAI : , what doses of DMSA and ALA are you giving your son ?. Every 3 hours ? How many days on and how many days off ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
