I agree but do you think oral chelation will be effective enoigh when you have 3

times higher level than the upper limit of lead in your body? I am seeing by far

more stimming as well so I would prefer oral which I did a few rounds and side

effects...

Re: [ ] Re: Turning a corner: thoughts on amazing gains

and the AC protocol

I'm not Irene, but I would say do not do IV. My son had serious respiratory

reactions after IV chelation and it brought back stimming, OCD, and SID --

so yes, it caused him to regress in many areas we had made great progress

in. I think low dose, frequent chelation is best. I think IV just moved

metals around and deposits them elsewhere. It can also cause adrenal

crisis. I honestly think now the reactions my son had were not allergy but

IV taxed his adrenals so much they were depleted.

Challenge tests pose the same risk. The best way to see what your child is

toxic in, I think is a DD hair test and apply the rules of counting.

We have seen more gains in eight rounds of AC than we ever saw in the months

we did IV.

Get lots of input from others and then make your decision.

yes I do think it will work but it is going to take time and committeemen.

My son was very toxic when he was younger. He definitely still is but not

as much as he was in the first few years after in happened. I think it will

work no matter how toxic but this is a protocol that requires patience.

I saw frightening things with my child when doing IV, and I could never do

that again and risk it. I'm fine with committing to 300 weekends doing it

this way. He is much more comfortable and I thnk safer. IV alwasy made me

a nervous wreck. I don't like needles being stuck in my child.

Everything Andy told me in the beginning, what I saw when doing IV -- it

just made a light bulb go off in my head. I decided that Andy's words made

the most sense.

Irene,

Thanks. You put it beautifully. I don't look at it from the view point of

" Oh, I want my son to be NT again. " Perhaps some view us erroneously as not

being able to accept our children as they are. It is NOT that. It is

Knowing that someone injected my child with known toxins - known highly

poisonous metals with the audacity to think " Oh, a littel won't hurt. " But

the God's honest truth is that THEY DO KNOW; THEY DID KNOW, and as a

prominent neurologist confirmed to me " There are going to be losses, " but

they think it is OKAY because they believe themselves to be working for the

" GREATER GOOD, " and so they thought my child and your child was expendable.

I want these metals out of my child the same way a mother of a child with

cancer wants cancer out of her child. Something highly harmful - something

that will continue to harm my child in myriad ways throughout his life is an

invader in my child's body, and I want it out. I'm just glad I finally woke

up and realized there are others out there who want to profit off of doing

this in a way that can and will do further harm to children who have already

been harmed enough. This is the safest way to get themercury out.

All it takes is a long-term commitment on our part. So be it. I have

" survivor's guilt sometimes as we have had our share of " Wow " moments over

the years with different interventions. We've certainly had our frightening

moments too. So this is become our way of life: prepare ALA caps on

Thursdays. Prepare a week's worth of supplements on Thursdays. And if we

have to do this for six years to get the mercury out, then so be it. If in

six years I find he still marches to the beat of a different drummer than

that is fine. I just want to know the mercury is OUT.

I know the way we are using ALA will not hurt him -- they sell it OTC at

Wal-Mart for Pete's sake! Those people buying it and taking it willy-nilly

with amalgams in their mouths may hurt themselves with it. They don't know

better. Hats off to the good old FDA.

There is a lot of good research out there regarding ALA and its benefits to

the human body, so huge gains or no, I believe staying on it will help my

child's health. Those are the early gains we have seen and there is

research to show ALA reduced asthma in children, and I think addressing his

adrenal issues contributed to that as well. Why didn't the Immunologist

ever suggest these things? Whey was he is such a frenzy to put my child on

steroids five times a day?

I like this choice -- He has only needed his rescue inhaler three times

since we began AC. That alone is good enough for us to continue. Maybe

his stimming will never go away, but if his lung problems can be help,

healed, or controlled with this protocol, I'd do it every weekend for the

rest of my life if I have to . But I truly believe over the long haul, he

will improve and heal by getting the mercury out.
