"If you feel pretty well before a chelation round, and feel horrible during the round, the most likely explaination is that the cause is mercury."

I did chelate before and felt really good for about 4 or 5 weeks and then crashed BIG time. All symptoms came back and then some. So that makes me think - yes mercury is my problem. It was improper chelation which I mentioned before I think - 250 mg DMSA every day, infrared ray sauna once a week, homepathetic detox kit, and IV DMPS every week. Now wonder why I crashed. But that makes me think that had I do it properly I may have felt better for longer. I will not add ALA for at least 3 months. I will not mess around with that stuff. I am only going to take 6.25 mg DMSA - I want to start slow and see how I do - I am very sensitive to meds. Oh, I had 9 amalgams out - using proper protocol.
