Hi Alison, yeah if you don't wish to use the chelating drugs, that's fine. You can wait it out and just concentrate on supplements and diet. Make sure you're following a diet that will help support your body by reducing yeast levels, and rebuilding tissues and helping you to heal and detox easier naturally.

This is no sugar, no gluten grains, no yeast etc. Limit or eliminate fruit and milk if you are having problems reducing yeast levels properly, because they still contain natural sugars (as does potatoes).

And the supplements of the antioxidants, minerals and essential fatty acids are good too. Maybe you could try some algin? It does appear to help some people.

Just some ideas, in case these things might help you to cope easier.
