I also started at 6mg DMSA and still felt lousy at the end of 3 days. I have done one round of 8mg and while I didn't have the fluey feelings after I was incredibly irritable - surprised even myself, never mind the kids. I am going very slow on this - maybe one round a month - as there is so much going on in my body at the moment - thyroid, adrenals, candida and mercury detoxing. I have to say that I have been REALLY strict on the diet in the last week - absolutely NO sugar in any form at all (I always snuck a piece of dark chocolate every morning!) , no grains, no gluten, etc etc and have upped my probiotic intake. I have been feeling significantly better with this, and sleeping better too.
