Robi, it is used in many of the alternative doctor's offices. The assistants in my doctor's office do the test before they go on treatment. to possibly see the changes over time.
Dr. R.S. does not consider or include heavy metals in his neurotoxin list. That's the major reason so many are ill.
Take care.

I am in the process of following Dr. S's CSM protocol for the second time. It is part of the process of trying to get rid of the nasal staph infection (coag neg staph). My first time around on the protocol was difficult but I made it for 2 months. Seems EVERYTHING I take hits me hard, particularly the central nervous system. I have taken the VCS both on my computer and in Dr. S's office and failed all times including last week. I think I did worse in his office. It will cost 8.95 for 3 tests on his website. Just use someone else's computer and your credit card. Follow the directions exactly.
OK, back to the Actos and CSM. I had to cut the 30mg. Actos pill in 4. I took 7.5mg for 2 days, then 15 for 3 days, then 30. That worked. I had to take it slowly with the CSM as well. Started with one dose and worked up to 4. If you don't take 4, it doesn't work. After I started the CSM, I stopped taking Actos. That was probably bad. I think I told you backline that after 2 months of 4 doses a day, I felt it had taken the heart and soul out of me. My spirit was gone. Stopped taking it. This time I am pulsing the Actos while I take CSM--10 days on and 7 off. Very important to follow the NO AMYLOSE diet. (I can post that if you like). After being on CSM for one month, I have to try to take 600mg. Rifampin with Bactroban Nasal ointment. I have tried taking those separately, but got very sick on 300 Rifampin for 11 days. When I take Batroban, I am in bed 6-8 hours. The doc says it is very important for me to take them together, so hope the Actos helps with that. I can go very slowly if I have to. Doc says it will take 3 months to get rid of the staph, which is an absolute necessity. My MSH is less than 8 (very low) and there is no way to feel better with a low MSH. So, I expect a very rough 4 months before I move to VA. Shelley mentioned a staph phayge lysate and I have asked her about it; hope she responds.
Hope this helps. If you need more help with this, let me know. I will keep my eyes peeled for email and be on lymenet for you.

I tried Dr.S protocol for the first time in 2001. It worked well. I used it several times over a few years. I was symtom free for 2 years and recently relapse or was reinfected. Anyway I'm back on the protocol because it is a positive addition to a total approach to taking back our lives. It's worth a try. Good Health JP
