"TRANS-METALLATION" is a big word that means "swapping one metal out for another."
-Gadolinium can only be "safely" injected into a body if it is "caged/bound/chelated" inside a safe CHELATE molecule that has been created for the purpose.  Inside this "cage" or "clamshell" it is still magnetic (so it is useful for magnetic resonance imaging-MRI), and yet it is not allowed out of the cage to "react" with the proteins etc of the body, as Gd is poisonous. 

-HOWEVER, other heavy metals (mercury, zinc, phosphorus) inside a body ALSO want to get inside the cage, and are known to OUTCOMPETE the Gd or "UNLOCK the weak cage locks," jump into the cage themselves, and kick the gadolinium out. 

-For example, Zinc denture cream is known to release Gadolinium from it's cage.  Mercury, Lead and others do something similar.  This unleashed Gadolinium is then left behind to creates chronic disease states in the body.

"EXTRA-VASATION" is a big word that means the radiology tech's needle missed (or poked all the way through to the other outside of) the vein and what was supposed to go into your bloodstream (and exit via kidneys) got left behind in a muscle or nearby tissue where it takes inifitely longer to get removed from the body and has longer time to react with nearby tissues.  Extravasated Gadolinium has more time to "unzip" from it's binder and be left behind, in the body, instead of exiting through the kidneys as it is "supposed to."

Symptoms associated with ANY level of Gadolinium in the body:

• wherever the Gadolinium goes and gets trapped, calcification and phosphate accumulation build up in random tissues throughout the body like buckshot. (The body lays down "bone" to "pearlize" the Gadolinium; thus, body tissues harden, stiffen, and become "paralyzed from the outside-in" as if the dermal layers are now made of tree bark, taught dry leather, or "tin man" armor.)

• Skin changes akin to fibrosis of the skin and muscles, especially on limbs, eye and vision changes, optic floaters, large lumps on limbs near joints, brain fog, 

Current tips on testing for Gadolinium in the body: 2023

• Fecal test: before and after HOPO is best, next best is OSR, next best is large dose oral DMSA, next best EDTA IV +lg dose oral DMSA.

• Urine challenge with IV EDTA will see only some of the Gadolinium.

• Invasive biopsy of suspicious tissue are the only ways to reliably find gadolinium. Mayo clinic does blood serum testing for it.

Tips on Chelation of Gadolinium from the body

• EDTA iv's in a body with with lots of silver fillings in your mouth may cause mobilization of mercury, so it is necessary to read up on that if you have them. 

• I.V. EDTA is known to chelate Gadolinium very slowly, while oral EDTA does not. 

• Suppository EDTA should work, but we don't know how much. DMSA does not remove gadolinium.

• Experimentation with the use of DTPA shows efficacy but weak binding, so many flares, resurfacing symptoms and .  

• Chelation of Gadolinium is fairly new in online patient experience, circa roughly 2009.

• Underground patient experience with HOPO is showing promise as of 2023.
