Chelation - is it working at all?

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

We have done 7 rounds of chelation with our son. The first 5 with just DMSA

and the last 2 rounds with DMSA / ALA. I started my son on 3.5 mg of DMSA then

increased to 5 and for the last 3 rounds he has been at 8 mgs. He has done well

with tolerating both DMSA and ALA. He is however very yeasty now.

We have not seen any gains yet. I don't know if its too soon to see any

positives? I have a friend who saw gains on the 2nd round..... I have also read

of parents seeing gains right away. My son will be 3 yrs old in a couple of

months and I was hoping to get him a little bit better before he starts

preschool. He is non-verbal. My greatest fear is sending him to school when he

can't tell me what is happening to him.

Is it to soon for us to see gains? His father keeps asking me if I know what

I am doing. He of course wants to do the IV chelation challenge test that our

DAN has recommended but I totally refuse to do it. I am just trying to stay

positive and on track even though I wonder sometimes if it will ever work for my

son.
