school kids and rounds on the weekends

[Guest guest]

I am trying to figure out the best possible way for me to do rounds

with my daughter, who goes to school. I pick her up from school on

friday at 210pm. She goes back to school on Monday at 7am. Do I have

enough time to give her the length of a round that is required? Or

would I be cutting it too short, due to her schedule.

I also would like to know if anyone here, in a similiar situation,

has noticed that your children tend to be so worn-out, and/or

mentally stressed during the Mon. thru Fri. school week because of

chelating on the weekends? My daughter is the type that tended to do

well while on rounds, and not so good while off.

History: We started chelation a few months ago, and I have previously

posted what supps she was on. Her headaches were bad, and she

complained of being dizzy. We were using DMSA only @ 3mg per dose. I

can't see that the dose was too high. But, she was complaining so

much, that we took an *extended* break. Now I am ready to resume, but

she's in school. And I would like some feedback from others who've

been there, done that.

Also, with her being gone so much of the day, how would I be able to

give her the required amount of supps? I used to spread the dosages

throughout the day. But, now that doesn't seem like an option. Please

offer advice!!

===>This is fine, you want a minimum of 65-66 hours and I believe this

qualifies. With kids in school, you do what you can. We also find there is LOT

of school holidays with either Friday or Monday off, in addition to

Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter where you can do longer rounds. This is

important for kids who do better " on " rounds, as does our little one, age 7.===>

===>Yes, if we use Dmsa we do notice that it has a tendency to wipe her out.

This is not true for Ala. One of the things we tried which was helpful for the

tiredness was Siberian Ginseng, seems to cut this side effect totally.===>

give her the required amount of supps? I used to spread the dosages

===>We do supps at breakfast, then with a snack after school and then after

dinner. Some do breakfast, snack and then with a bedtime snack. It seems to

work just as well as the breakfast, lunch, dinner thing.

Please

****How much Siberian Ginseng do you recommend? My dd is 9yo and

weighs 70lbs. I was also under the impression that side effects were

fewer and more tolerable with DMSA than ALA. Hence, we made the

decision to use the DMSA. At what dose did you start you dd on ALA?
