Please reconsider the use of DMSA in such a sick person with a messed up gut! DMPS is so much better tolerated in such people. DMSA is very well known to aggravate a messed up gut!
I believe in miracles--or I would not be posting in your discussion : ) -- but use of DMSA is asking for more punishment.
btw. I've used DMSA + ALA for 3 yrs but my problems don't include candida or a really messed up gut.
