My daughter and I both had high lead. We're both fine, now. In fact, chelation helped us to start feeling better.

Really six thank you for telling me this . How high in lead were you? Mine is 13 mg/g reference range is 2 to be normal.

And you both started getting better with chelation?

Did you have any mental or cognative symptoms before this from either the Lyme and co or the lead?

And I take it these got better?

Had you had lead for a long time?

I am doing chelation right now. Started in March of this year.
My level is 29. Normal 2.

Goes back 60 years.

I was born and raised in a house that had lead pipes. My father changed the house over to copper pipes when I was 8.

How much damage has it caused-there's no way to tell.

It's been a long time since I was treated so I don't remember the numbers. It was quite high.

My daughter had a lot of cognitive symptoms from it that improved tons. Her IEP in school even changed for the better as a result.
