Need more help with 's test results / chelation dosing/ Thyroid / B12

[Guest guest]

I know this is asking alot, but I'm having trouble with her

chelation cycles, she seems to be getting worse (after 7 rounds)

during and right after chelation. I think the dose is too high for

her. ALso, I had posted her hair test results before and someone

said I should post her thyroid test too. We are waiting on

testosterone results.

The doctor said her thyroid is ok, but am

including her initial Thyroid bloodwork here for any comments anyone

might have.

Lately she has been more aggressive and overall she's always been

hyperactive and

not concentrating on the task at hand. I (mom) have low thyroid and

am on synthroid

for that. She is on oral LDN, Cal/Mag/C, GABA, Super NuThera, MB12

cream, GSE, (just

taken off of nystatin), TMG, Detox Aid, Saccromyces Boullardi, Pro

Culture gold probiotic.

Chelation Questions:

Very curious as to why we were told 200 mg doses of DMSA every 8

hours. Question on how

often, how much (she weighs 42 lbs). She doesn't do well on

chelation weekends. Also, we

are to be adding ALA this week. The Dr. said to give 25 mg twice a

day every day. Should we

only do it on Chelation weekends ?

Should we dose less and every 4 hours instead ? Will that help her

behavior issues ?

Thyroid Tests from January:

T4 Total: 8 (range: 7.3 -15)

TSH 1.7 (range .7-5.9)

T3 Total 187 (range: 127-221)

------------------------------------------------

Question on B12:

Vitamin B12: 1686 High (range: 200-1100) does this mean she needs

more B12

or we shouldn't supplement with B12. She is currently taking Super

Nuthera

and also TD Methylcolabimin.

Porphyrins in May (after a few rounds of chelation):

Her recent coproporphyrins were high: 199.6 (range is 10 - 254.7)

Her uropophyrins were also high: 15.6 (range is 4.3 - 16.2)

--------------------------------------------------

Urine Toxic Metals Test after first round of chelation in May:

Arsenic :27

Cadmium: .3

Lead: 2.8

Mercury: 1.5 (we thought this would be higher)

Nickel: 7.4

Tin: 4.7

Tungsten: .7

Creatinine: 34

She is currently on a chelation protocol, but wanted some outside

advice.

She is taking lots of vitamins, oral DMSA and will soon be starting

ALA.

Thanks so much !!! Bernadette (her mom)
