Going to start DMSA transdermal cream ordered by my DAN doctor from Coastal Pharmacy. Its been in the fridge for two weeks. I am still trying to find the pros and cons, before I start.
My son is 3.3 yrs non verbal, he is on lot of supplements, gluten free casein free diet, aba, OT for a year. Doctor told me to use “DMSA transdermal apply three times daily every OTHER Friday, Saturday, Sunday.”
Concerns:
1. We did not do any metal test, My DAN doctor said, since tests are not going to show anything, don’t waste money on any of the tests? But I ordered the White Plains hair test kit, just for my satisfaction. Any suggestion?
2. Three months ago, when we did the Yeast test, he was high on yeast, we have been doing the same diet (rotation diet), same supplements, poop got better and better to where it was perfect, but last two weeks, it starts getting really soft, and very bad odor. Looks like we may have yeast issue again. I heard kirkman has a yeast control enzyme something called Candice if I remember right? If I start DMSA now, should I watch out for anything in particular?
3. His behavior has changed in the last 4 weeks a lot (a mix of better and worst). He has been a very happy child to the most part,but lately he started crying , the crying is not just crying it’s like he is in pain or something. If we had started chelation, I would have thought it was the chelation caused this? I mean everybody including the doctor would have said the same thing. It was the DMSA, right? That really puzzles me? We would not really know what is causing the out of the blue, odd behaviors?
4. Sometimes, we are out of some of the supplements for a week or two weeks , during that time, I don’t see any big negative or positive reactions, does it mean he does not need those supplements?
5. Supplements he has been on the following supplements right now: Brain child vitamin Brain child mineral Calcium Cord Liver Oil Acidophilus powder Zinc Cultureule Pro bio gold Vitamin C DMG HN-Zyme Enzyme AFP- Peptizyde No-Fenol Gluathione cream twice a day b12 shots twice a week (Tuesday and Saturday)
I am thinking of adding the following : Milk Thistle Coromega Flaxseed B6 Magnesium (My Dan doctor feels no need for additional magnesium since he is getting it from Brain Childminerals) L-Carnosine’L-Glutamine Transfactor from 4life
I will start one at a time, but it is normal for these kids to have 20 vitamins a day right?
6. His diet has no sugar (we use Agave Nectar natural sweetener on pan cakes) no honey, only fruit he eats is pear, and only juice is pear juice. no candies. we tried other fruits sometimes with no phenol enzymes, we did not see any big change?
7. Again, mainly 3 times a day on Friday, Saturday and Sunday on alternative weeks, transdermal DMSA, any suggestion? How to control Yeast during chelation? Is there any supplement I should add or watch out for?
