Starting ALA, will I need DMSA at some point?

[Guest guest]

Hi all-

Im going to start AC chelation with my 4 yr old son (34 lbs) next week. I will

start with TD ALA, because my son absolutely fights us on every syringe or oral

dosing. I planned on starting with 4mg ALA.

He meets the counting rules on the DDI hair test and also showed high levels of

lead, arsenic, antimony.

Will I need to use DMSA at some point in our detox process? Should I be

starting with DMSA instead of ALA? He has had no recent exposure to mercury

that I know of( no amalgams, etc).

thanks-
