Yup. Both my daughter and I. We both felt significantly better during/after lead treatment.

We used Detoxamin (suppository, otc), NAC, and ALA. Also zeolite.

I felt tons better on treatment days than the days off. Detoximin is pulsed.

Yes, I'm doing this right now. It's too early to say, but I think it's helping. I'd pretty much plateaued, but recently have been feeling almost "normal" most days, specifically less pain and fatigue.

I pulse the DMSA, but take Chorella everyday....love that stuff!

I don't know if "I" have lead but just found out that on top of the black mold, we have lead paint in our house that is chipping so I am freaking out.

I am on Chlorella and Brown Seaweed/Modifilan and pusling in Chlorestyramine when I can tolerate it though not sure if that helps with heavy metals.

I also have an infrared sauna that I use on a daily basis now.

Dr Gordon, the inventor of zeolite, in AZ is usually considered the father of chealtion, but I am yet to see anyone even acknowledge him here. He seems to make a real effort to make interested non-patients the opportunity to study his information with a low priced audio tape materials and to interactively participate in his webinars. I am yet to access much of this, but I think it is worth mentioning occasionally. Any thoughts on EDTA,or cilantro with Lead? EDTA started as a lead treatment, but it seems it is now the choice for mercury instead

If I remember right, there is a certain order in which the chelators remove metals. I think mercury comes out first, then the others (lead included). But it also probably depends on which chelator(s) is/are used...

Mattnapa, I've had the same test recently and also had 3 times the limit of both lead and mercury.

Having had my amalgams out over 10 years ago and taken a whole range of things over the years to try to address the metals, this was pretty depressing news!

I am waiting to hear what my LLMD has in mind for me. Let us know what you end up doing/taking,

Carry

I used EDTA for lead. My LLMD uses it for lead but the other for mercury.
