Arsenic removal is slow.

[Guest guest]

First DDL hair analysis 2/06. Are main issue is arsenic for both

kids. We focused on our daughter who had PDD.

Started chelating Andy's Protocal - 7/06

It will be three years of chelating this summer.

In 2/06 arsenic was at .38 reference <0.080 in the red

In 11/08 it had gone down to .11 reference <0.060 - still half way

thru the yellow.

Is it going to take three years to get the arsenic out? Really!! That

LONG!!!

We did many rounds of DMPS seven days on seven days off, then added

in ALA every three hours in the middle of the round. Last summer we

dropped the DMPS and using only ALA. We have had 49 rounds of DMPS

total and 40 rounds of ALA total. I don't know the count of how many

rounds total.

Tin has crept further up into the yellow. I just threw away our old

silverwear.... What chelates tin?

I don't believe we have mineral transport derangement and mercury has

gone down with just a small remainder at 0.05 reference range .40.

Before the mercury was in the green at .20.

My typical son's arsenic level was 2.2 reference range 0.080 in 4/06

and he does not tolerate DMPS or DMSA. Bacteria issues are

impossible to control on ALA. We are still batteling the mycroplasm

so have not been able to chelate. I am sure we have not made much

progress but removing him from the exposure. I think exposure was

from old house built on top of land used to be owned by a brick and

tile company and next to train tracks.

Did I hear right that B6 helps with arsenic? Doesn't sound like

anything I would hear on this list.

Was I foolish to think my daughters arsenic level would be lower? How

many years will it take to get my son's extremely high level out?

How do people cope with knowing there is crap in their kids and not

do anything about it? I am not sure how I will cope with getting

this out of our son when we haven't even started. We are getting

another analysis done anyway so we know where we are. Maybe removing

him from the exposure 2 and 2/2 years ago will cause the level to go

down?
