I have two children on chelation. One is 15 months and the other is 2.5 years. I started out following my doctors every other day protocal of DMSA. He also wanted them on ala everyday. I quickly found that this did not work for my children and brought Andy Cutlers book. I changed their protocal completely and things are better now. My baby gets dmsa and ala three days on and eleven days off. My two year old gets dmsa three days on and eleven days off. I will add the ala when his levels go down. (the baby has arsenic - the two year old does not) The baby seems to be handling things well. The two year old is developing wonderful language but his emotions are real difficult to deal with. What is the best protocal to use? Can someone give me a time frame of when behaviors might calm down? We are only a month into this.
