I have done 34 rounds with DMSA - 17mg - and feel a LOT better than I did. More energy, less fluey, some of my worst symptoms have gone. The last two rounds were with ALA, and I didn't feel anything in particular, apart from increased bloating, which is a well-known side-effect of ALA.

Despite the success, I have having to stop the DSMA for a bit <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> because I think it is irritating my liver. I have Gilberts syndrome, which makes my liver very sensitive to drugs. So I shall give it and break, and chelate with ALA only for the next few months. Then I shall see whether I can tolerate the DMSA again.

I expect to be chelating for at least another 18-24 months.
