Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 What type of chelation schedule are you using? Every 4 hours for DMSA? Dose? We do the AC protocol and give all supplements during his 3 day rounds on. Cant imagine not. But we do have to give smaller amounts multiple times a day. We also do ES baths which are helpful. I believe different doctors have different beliefs/ideas of what works but we have had great results with very little side effects. Urinating more is normal as long as its not like WAY MORE : ) Is your child using a liver support? DMSA can stress the liver. We use milk thistle drops.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hi We aren't doing the AC protocol unfortunately, at least not yet. I have to buy his book to better inform myself. I hear many great things about his protocol. Right now I am following my DANS instructions (as much as possible). She originally recommended 500mg caps every 8 hours for 3 days and then 11 days off. However, since I have been reading many posts, apparently, 500mg is way too high. SO, for my 13 year old boy, who weighs 110 lbs I give him half the cap, 250mg every 8hrs for 3 days. Lastly, she never mentioned anything about liver support, but again, by reading other posts I incorporated the milk thistle 100mg daily thinking it will help with supporting his liver ( she had us do blood tests after the 4th round to ensure all is good with his liver etc..) I wonder why she said not to do the ES baths..or not to give any vit's with minerals? I can't remember her reasons. Lastly, while chelating do you all give probiotics and/or any supps to control yeast flare ups, such as gse, OoO, s.boulardii,etc? Sorry for all the questions...I just don't want my son to go thru what he did the last 3-4 weeks. It was awful..to the point that he was being disruptive in class and since then his teacher has implemented a behavioural program. They are rewarding him with good behaviour with things he loves (with my consent of course). Aghh, kind wait for all the lead and tin to be removed (he tested very high on those). TXS!

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hey , Please read below my answer to a member from another group. It pretty much answers your question and more.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Heleni, You can get a lot of the info from the files on this message board and at Moria's site - linked in the files section here. It will give you some info to study while waiting for Andy's book. That is how I did it. When I could afford his book, I did buy it, but had been able to gather lots of helpful info from the message board files first. Age isn't important, weight is. I'm assuming your son is the 110lb 13 yo in the text below. If so, I sure hope you really aren't giving him 250 mg every 8 hours!! That is a massive amount. You want to give 1/8-1/4mg per pound of body weight. That would mean for your child a starting dose would be only 12.5 mg per dosing. Every 4 hours is the way to go too. Every eight hours, whether the smaller dose or larger dose will cause redistribution since DMSA half life is 4 hours. We give probiotics whether or not chelating - daily basis, also enzymes. Supplements should continue during rounds. You may also need to consider yeast protocols.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Have you joined the autism treatment group? It has great info there. We started before we got the book with excellent results. Have you had a hair test done? The reason your Dan may say not to supplement minerals during chelation is that some get pulled with chelation. That is why we use small doses through the day to avoid his body stores from being depleted.. DMSA is known to chelated potassium. My son does best with lots of bananas on rounds..lol We use probiotics on and off rounds and also biotin/magnesium for yeast. My son isnt a big yeast kid though, so only use GSE or OOO sometimes. I am glad you have liver support in place thats great. Does he drink lots of water on rounds? Thats helful also. Even though your son is over 100 lbs I would be very weary of still such a high dose. Redistribution may be the reason for his hard 3-4 weeks. I know it seems like the higher dose will pull more out, but it also leaves more to re-deposite. The liver can only get so much junk out at a given time. Using high dose can actually make matters worse and not just for short term. Its also very stressful for the liver even with support. I would suggest just trying one or two rounds of the DMSA at 50 mg every 4 hours round the clock. If you feel it will be hard to split we get ours here http://www.vrp.com/ProductPage.aspx?ProdID=8111 Might make it easier.. Worth a shot to see how he does. My son is much younger but his lead went way down after just 8 rounds of 1/8 of a mg per pound.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Thanks! OK, wait a minute, did you miss-type? 12.5 mg per dose every 4 hrs.? My son is a little over 110lbs to be exact and you say he should get 1/4mg per pound of body weight, so doesn't that make it about 28mg per every 4hrs? Don't we have to take his body weight and divide by 4? I am bad in math so please correct me if I am wrong. Also, that seems awfully low of a dose to me. I have read a lot and researched a lot from the net and the dose she gave us originally (500mg) seems pretty accurate( according to the DAN protocols and others), even tho I chose to give him half of what I was told. Now I am scared s_ _ _ so please shed some light. I need to understand why one is better than the other. I am running out of time, he is 13 yrs old and so all the metals are stuck in him for so long that I need to give him enough of a dose that will remove them. Is there any supp that I can give that will work as a magnet to the metals and help get rid of faster?

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Thank you so much for all your help. What you are saying makes so much sense. I think I am going to try the 50 mg per 4 hrs and see how it goes. However, I will complete this round the way I started so I can be consistent. Meanwhile, I will give my son some GSE and OOO to help with yeast and as well add magnesium and biotin...anything to avoid any flare ups. Lastly yes I am with the autism treatment group. I sent my email to them as well. Got some replies from the too. You have been great help. Heleni From: Largey <l.largey (DOT) com> Subject: Re: dmsa with or without supps?

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 1/8 to 1/4 - I rounded at 100 lbs (where I got the 12.5 mgs - I didn't sweat the other 1.75 mgs for the extra 10 lbs) and you should start at the lower 1/8mg per pound dose then work up slowly, increasing the dose a little at a time after several rounds. We are using just ALA here, lead is not an issue so decided to just ALA. But, we stared at even lower dosing - 1/16 mg per pound of body weight. After six months we are only up to 1/12 mg per pound and still seeing great results. My daughter is off almost all of her supplements already except during a round. My son is down to just yeast protocol. DAN! protocols are often unsafe and cause redistribution not exit because they are such large doses the mobilize a lot of metal, but infrequent enough so there isn't enough to keep the metals bound and head them out the door. Andy Cutler's protocol is based on low dosing and slowly chelating to keep it safe and lower any negative reactions from redistribution and moving large quantities of metal though the body. Giving him a large dose doesn't necessarily remove them, it just moves them. Keeping it low dose, and frequent dosing (according to the half life of the chelator or how long it remains active in the body) removes them because the DMSA level in the body remains constant during the three days ushering the metals out. Many here actually chelate without a DAN! or using a doc only for testing they want to do. You can do this without paying a doctor, without a prescription, etc. if you want (not saying you will want to, just letting you know it can and is often done.) I know we all would like to quickly get our kids back to normal, but you aren't running out of time if you are on a steady track to the finish line. When you run out of time is when you follow unsafe methods and cause more damage, similar to a dog chasing its tail. My son is 18, and we only learned about this a bit over a year ago. I'd rather he gain the rest of his adulthood than try to rush it and make a mistake that will cause him one more day (or many more days) of darkness. The dangers lie in going to quickly. There are many here who tried what you have been told to do, only to cause damage and end up here trying to fix it. Many DAN! docs don't necessarily know safety with chelation. The recommendation many make to stop supplements during a round is also contrary to what Andy has learned and taught. He is chemist, not doctor, and understands the workings very well. Don't be scared, just understand that there is so much more to learn. Again, the files section has much information about how and why to go slowly and steadily. A common saying here is that this is a marathon not a sprint. I've done 6 months of chelation at the slow and steady pace and see very few issues but lots of improvement for both of my children (also a 14yo daughter). I realize that we will be doing this for a couple years most likely, but prefer that to the stories I've heard from people who have attempted the large infrequent doses.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Yes, it turns out most DAN doctors know very little about how to chelate properly without redistributing most of the metals in the body instead of excreting them. You start with 1/8mg/lb (12.5mg) and slowly increase to 1/4mg if there are no side-effects. And apparently your child is having many already due to to excessive dose. Read Andy's book and the archives and files here. Chelation is a marathon, not a sprint. You can't go too fast without harming him more. You are not running out of time. After about 3 months, you can start adding ALA, too, every 3 hours. This will remove the mercury from the brain, with DMSA does not. >Thanks!

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 ----- Original Message ----- From: Heleni & Nick Babalis Also, that seems awfully low of a dose to me. ===>It does seem low and it is hard to believe, but the lower doses work just fine and do not carry the risk of the higher doses. The most Dmsa we ever used was 10 mgs and I'm glad as judging by her reaction to just 10 mgs, the huge dan! dosing would have harmed her immeasurably. You can always go up. Is there any supp that I can give that will work as a magnet to the metals and help get rid of faster? ===>Unfortunately not, and don't fall for the zeolite/ncd trap, in case the salespeople are trolling the list and waiting to contact new people, they don't chelate a thing and will waste your time.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Are you treating yeast?? He needs to be on minerals and all the vitamins during the rounds and off the rounds. You also need to be addressing gut yeast with probiotics and antifungals. I would go against the DAN. The activated charcoal is not likely to absorb a lot but it can help absorb the gut yeast. However, it also absorbs the vitamins and minerals. We have not used it for rounds following Andy's protocol which includes probiotics and antifungals. What doses? What chelators and what timing are you using? That is also another huge factor in reactions. > > Hi all, > I have posted with all the groups I am currently with.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 My DAN told us to keep on all supplements while on round (except take a break on difulucan while on round so not to over stress the liver). He also recommened taking epson salt baths while on round (along with drinking chicken broth made with a chicken that has its bones broken -more nutrients). I guess different DANs have different recommendations, but I actually increase my son's zinc on round because DMSA pulls zinc out. I also make sure he eats a banana each day he is on round for the potassium. @...: l.largey@...: Sat, 22 Nov 2008 12:13:41 -0800Subject: Re: dmsa with or without supps?

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Yes, especially the zinc, calcium and magnesium both on and off rounds. We also do selenium and Vit C on rounds. I believe that zinc is given away from calcium since they compete for absorption. We do a cal/mag supplement and dose it at a different time of day than the zinc. Also, you asked about where the files were; yes that is the link to the board file section at the bottom of the e-mail. Just click on it and it will take you there. Or, you can use this address: /files/ There is a lot there, but take your time. As I said before, you have time to learn and figure out what is safest. We didn't start until ours were older than yours, and recovery is going nicely.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Heleni Yes you dont want to change doses in the middle of a round. If you are a member of autism treatment, you will get lots of info there from many parents doing this for a long time with excellent results and healthy happy kids. There is a supplement file under files that really helped my son before even starting. It tells what supplements suggested while chelating. its at the bottom of supplements file page. Andy's dose schedule is another good file to read as well as how to hair test. Getting a hair test without the need for a doctor at www.directlabs.com many on the A-M group can read these tests and tell way better what your son is toxic with..more accurate than a challenge test. The test is called " hair elements " you dont want the toxic elements hair test it cant be read correctly. they send you the kit, you send the hair and results are sent to your e-mail within 10 days in pdf file. I will be happy to show you my sons private e-mail if your curious. Dont get overwhelmed. Its better to take your time and feel confident your doing whats best ..than rushing to make him better when their are so many ways that can not work well. Dan dr's mean well...but some really just go with the flow of other Dan Dr's not knowing a better way. Most did not go to medical school for chelation ..but most are really on our side just not all have it down quite right yet. I am so glad I went with the AC protocol honestly. After reading and researching and trying it.. I would never do it any other way ever ever... When you give biotin just start with about 2.5 mg (same 2500 mcg) 3 times a day.. Its one of those supplements you dont want to start too high. If you ever feel stuck just e-mail me off list with questions any time. We stear very close to the exact A-C recommendations so its second nature now.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 We chelated almost a year before we got up to 100mgs on a 151 lb boy.....we started at 12.5 and my son recovered...they are telling you correctly. 500mgs and even 250 is not ok.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Oh thank you for giving me hope. How old is your son? As well, did you do other things to help recover your son prior to chelating him, like cleaning his gut with diet, supps, b12 shots , etc?? How long did it take before he became recovered? Prior to biomedics and this journey my son was severe non-verbal, and now he is recovering slowly but surely. They have assessed him with moderate autism and he could easily be HF but because of behaviour issues, anxiety issues he is still moderate. He does not have as speech problem anymore. He talks in full sentences and maybe not always 100% with clarity, but boy does he talk! ...hopefully chelation will be the icing, and my child recovers. I just want to make sure I do it right.
