After reading JK98's post and verifying it with some things Cutler said as well as the fact that not only do I not feel any negative side effects I decided to increase my dose of ALA to 150mg and continue with 25mg of DMSA. I continued this all day today and still have no negative side effects and actually feel great (possibly the ALA?)

I may decide to max out at 200mg a dose and continue that for another month (alternating weeks) to ensure that any/all lead and mercury are out of my system at which point I'll continue to take ALA a couple times a day for its benefits.

My next goal is to do a good parasite removal, I already have some good advice from you guys and will continue to research until this is completed.
