I know I have to do both but I'm not sure what order. Can anyone tell me AND explain the reason why?
Thanks!

I think the parasites hold on to the metals. My take would be it might be hard to get rid of the metals when you have the parasites, but once you kill some parasites, the metals will be released, and you would want to be ready to mop up the metals.

I've been killing parasites on and off for a year or more.
I never thought I had a heavy metal problem until a dark field microscope test told me I did. That and 1 celled parasites. I'm supposing that means babesia (I have tested energetically for some still).
(But the dark field test showed NO BORRELIA!!!! So my other 4 infections are gone with Bionic 880!! Only a bit of babesia left and hopefully heavy metal detox will allow treatment to kick babesia's hind end out the door! So happy!)
I was told that in order to get rid of the babesia completely, I needed to detox the metals which are blocking the treatment.
But I'm analyzing it way too much and wondering if the metals will detox if parasites are holding on to them? Right in line with what you're saying, Michael.
So what you've said, dal, makes the most sense to me. Any suggestions for the best way to do that?
My concern is that I'm feeling great. Only 2 days a week do I have weak babesia symptoms. Metal detox makes me nervous and maybe it should. I don't want to mess up and make things worse. Feeling yuck for a short time, I could understand, but I fear the long term yuck, if you know what I mean.
Two things I could really use right about now. A good doctor who knows how to sarely take me thru metal detox and a big bag of money so I could pay his bill.

Metals and parasites? I know you can treat parasites while on antibiotics. I suppose metals too but not positive.

Hey guys my llmd actually recommended doing slow metal chelation while on abx. She said the that the chelation breaks down biofilms and releases more bacteria into the system that need to be killed with abx
She has me doing both at the same time, but says the chelation needs to be done very slowly and carefully.
I also have an llnd here at home guiding me through the chelation and monitoring me weekly , he also has me on metal binders other than just the chelation and has me doing Iv and oral gleutithione
So yes chelation can and apparently according to my llmd should be done at the same time.
