Thanks Faith. We will check into that possibility. Len

Our son almost never gets sick, but he did come home about a week ago with flu symptoms (vomiting mostly). We will definitely check this out with his doctor. So a tic can be a side effect of strep? If so, does it go away at some point? Len

Dear All, My 7 year old son, who has autism, just developed a tic in his neck about 4 days ago. It is as frequent as every 5 seconds to several minutes between episodes. We have used td-dmps chelator for 2 1/4 years now and began EDTA suppositories the last couple months to address lead. We wonder if the tic is a side effect of the chelator, especially with the addition of EDTA. We have dropped the chelation once the tics appeared and were close to winding down in the next month anyway. He is also on supplements monitored by Pfeiffer Treatment Center, is GFCF, had HBOT (last segment over 1 1/2 ago--140 treatments to date). We also do a FIR sauna with him a couple times a week to help move toxins out. My fear is that we may have pushed him to hard on the chelating and wonder if anyone else may have similar experience with tics as a side effect to chelation. Or is there something else you see going on here? We pray this is temporary and any suggestions to help him are very much appreciated. Sincerely, Len
