Guest guest Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Lori, We did do IV but our son developed asthma attacks afterward and it really scared me, so we have quit again. I've been at this a long time, and in hindsight I wish we had followed Andy's protocol. I think it is safer and I think it is less expensive too. I also want to say that in 2001, this was the only board I could find at the time, and the people here put me on the right track for so many things that helped my son. My son was completely non-verbal, moderate/severe, and he is now high-functioning and very verbal. This is just my opinion. I am feeling a little regret about not having done Andy's protocol in the beginning. IV chelation did get out a lot of metals, but I was always very nervous about it, and then when the asthma attacks started..... I just think we have to find the safest way possible to help our kids. There is risk in everything, but Andy has always made a lot of sense to me and given me very good advice over the years. Hope this helps, Haven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Please don't do IV chelation or suppositories. Look into AC protocol chelation. ( Hall Cutler) IV chelation can be dangerous and all it does is free's up a bunch of metals and drops them. AC protocol doses chelators at their half life. You dose small amounts every few hours for 3 days and then take a break (usually for 4 days), and repeat. This keeps the metals steadily moving out of the body. And, when you stop, you are only redistributing small amounts of metals (we're using 5 mg right now). > > Hello, > > I am new on this board. Basically, we met with a DAN doctor and my son's test results came back. He has a leaky gut, yeast overgrowth, heavy metals (mercury), and an infection (she doesn't know what, but she thinks it's Lymes disease). > > We need to get my son's body to a healing place with a very restrictive diet. We are following the IGG tests. Then she wanted us to come back in a month to talk about chelation and testing for Lymes. This is all out of pocket, so we have already spent a ton of money. > > So, she want to do IV chelation because it's most effective. She also mentioned suppositories. The IV is twice a month. > > The test for Lymes will determine whether or now he has it. Then we go for treatment. This is going to be thousands upon thousands of dollars. > > So, I guess what I want to ask is, is there any other way to do chelation besides such an invasive and expensive route? Any recommended oral way? > > Has anyone dealt with Lyme's disease? He tested 1054 on the Neopterin level. Any advice? > > Thanks! > Lori > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
