I think you are still doing too much if ALA if you think you need 11 days off of chelating. That means there is still too much redistribution of mercury. You should really consider lowering your dose to where you can do 3 days on and 4 days off. Its better to do a very low dose you can tolerate and get some mercury out safely than overdo it and do a lot of damage while getting some mercury out.

There are many people on the frequent dose chelation group who do rounds with only like 6mg of ALA at every dose.
