Welcome back Linda <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hi.gif" alt="" /> . I am sorry to hear about how bad you felt on this trip. It is quite devastating when you start noticing some improvements and then the same old stuff hits you again, which I guess tells us that we are still very toxic and more is required.

Hoping that continued chelation will eventually bring you out of this tendency to relapse into this and improvements will be permanent, not transitory. I do remember the transitory improvements whilst chelating and then being pushed back into a pit. Unfortunately the only way for healing to take place often times is repeats of old symptoms and often even more intense than they were! Retracing. Horrible horrible thing, it's like a nightmare returning over and over, but eventually it improves.

Anyway, just keep on doing what you're doing and don't give up. For me? I very stupidly cheated on my diet after doing so well for weeks on end. I had it in my mind it wasn't going to happen and I did it anyway. Though it was Xmas and probably in a way understandable, I could have quite easily gotten through it without doing that. It's more about feeling better and enjoying other people (family etc). I know food is a big deal too, but not when it destroys progress.

So my pain right now is self inflicted lol, but the main thing is getting back up and trying again.

Cheers and glad you got the DMSA smuggled over here safely <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
