Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Alot of times covering ears & pulling on the ears is a sign of yeast. Lillian fldofdrms@... fjennings@... [ ] Ear Pulling After Chelation Hello Everyone. My son is on chelation round 7(AC protocal, DMSA & ALA). On day 2, he started pulling his ears. I'm not sure what was happening. Any thoughts? Is this a side-effect of chelation? We didn't stop chelation. He used to do this when he had an ear infection. I wonder if that is what is was? If he does this now (off day) do you think I should have his ear checked out by a pediatrician? If he does have an ear infection, he will be prescribed an antibiotic. What are the chelation rules -- should he be chelated while on an antibiotic? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Dana, I think, talked about ear infections being caused by yeast, so there are possibilities. If it were me, I would not go the antibiotic route. I have heard other parents talk about using natural remedies. You might look here. I know the garlic route has worked well for others. http://www.healthy.net/scr/article.asp?ID=1175 Anne > > > Hello Everyone. > > My son is on chelation round 7(AC protocal, DMSA & ALA).

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Is he casein-free? If not, take him off dairy for a week and see if that makes a difference. Do you have him on probiotics? How's his diet? Consider the garlic oil someone else recommended. S S Hello Everyone.<br> <br> My son is on chelation round 7(AC protocal, DMSA & ALA). On day 2, he <br> started pulling his ears.

Any > thoughts? Is this a side-effect of chelation? For my son, this meant he had yeast in his ears. I used oral GSE and the problem went away. > He used to do this when he had an ear infection.
