Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 You need to research the protocol before you start you have your facts off a little bit. In the daytime you dose the chelators every 3 hours, at night you give the chelators every 4 hours only on the PARENTS sleep cycle. You need to do what you need to do but don't go past 4 hours at night, it's pushing the 1/2 life of the drugs, set multiple alarms if necessary. If you cant get up exactly every 4 hours than don't do the protocol. > > I know when we start doing the chelation, we have to get up at night. A lot of parents said that they will do every 4 hours exactly around the clock. The question I am having is that whether everyone puts on the alarming clock to wake them up. I can get up at night because I need to go to pee a couple of times anyway. But I may wake up at 4:30am instead of 4:00am if the chelation time is 4:00am. My time will be off a little bit. This is not acceptable, correct? How is everyone doing to wake them up exactly on time? Thanks, > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 You are doing DMSA, every 4 hours, right? I would play it safe and use an alarm clock; waking up on your own is not reliable. Also, I have learned to put my alarm across the room so i will have to get up to turn it off. I have messed up a couple of roundsbyjust hitting tje alarm clock and going back to sleep. :-) HTH, S Sent from my iPhone On Oct 24, 2010, at 9:22 AM, " cutemiranda2000 " <cutemiranda2000@...> wrote: I know when we start doing the chelation, we have to get up at night.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 I got a digital timer at Wal-mart. I put in 4 hours and it does a nice beep for a while. BTW - once I'm up, I hit the bathroom too. Because once I'm up and walking, I need to go. So I didn't wake up for my own trip. It worked out fine here!
