Dump phase

[Guest guest]

I'm confused about the " dumping phase " . It seems many people report a

difficult phase about 6 months after amalgam removal. For myself, I

had my fillings removed a decade ago and I don't remember any dramatic

effect, just a very slow but steady improvement over many years. I

didn't chelate then and started about 18 months ago. It seemed to be

going OK on 12.5 mg ALA and DMSA although I did find I had to leave at

least 10 days between rounds to recover from side effects - any less

than that and they seemed to accumulate - so progress was slow.

Early this year though I did a round as usual but side effects were

much worse and instead of 10 days it took 10 weeks to recover.

Consequently my chelating program has stalled rather. I finally did

another round at half the previous dose a couple of weeks back and seem

to have handled that OK, and plan to carry on at the lower dose for a

while. Is this experience related to the dumping phase? And have

others experienced suddenly not being able to cope with a chelation

regime that was working fine before?
