or anyone - Christos' Hair Test and Chelation questions

January 20, 2008

Hi ... I tried to reply to your post, but it didn't work... anyways...

Christos doesn't have amalgams, no recent vaccinations, occasional tuna. I

was using glutithione and Authia cream, but have stopped... this could account

for the high levels of mercury in his hair. I did chelation with Christos about

2 years ago for about 2 years working with a DAN doctor using the ALA 100 mgs

and DMSA 100mgs every 8 hours 3 days on 11 days off...and lead came out as

reflected in his urine tests, but the mercury didn't show up. I had to stop per

the doctor because his zinc levels became too low per RBC tests we did

periodically.

Christos made good progress from his previous chelation for a child who had no

words until he was nearly 5 years old, but I believe the mercury is still there

getting in his way. His most recent neuropsy visit puts him in the 2nd grade

level for reading and math...still severe language disorder. He's in the 5th

grade in a separate classroom for learning problems. He was diagnosed in " 99

when he was 2. I did the diet, no longer necessay because his gut is now

healed. He was on nystatin for over a year to get rid of the yeast. Hopefully

most of the lead is gone or will be so now I want to get rid of the mercury

that's been there far too long.

I started chelating this Friday using 12.5mgs of ALA every 3 hours and every

4 hours during the night. He's doing fine... He's 70 pounds. I will be adding

DMSA 12.5 mgs also the next round. I am chelating this weekend until tomorrow

evening which will give him the 300 mgs of ALA over the course of the 3 days. I

am planning to chelate every other weekend...with the same dosage, but would

like to increase it up to 25 mgs of DMSA and ALA after a few rounds.

How does that sound? I understand now that mercury is more likely to show in

the stool than the urine after chelation. How many rounds should be done

before a stool test can be done to see if anything is coming out?

I appreciate your time...Beth
