RE: [SPAM] Re: detox pathway and my own problems

[Guest guest]

Well I’ve had a number of heavy

metal toxicity screens, hair tests 3x, blood test (redblood cell elements) and

urine and provocated urine. All come back with mercury 5-8 times normal….My

liver function labwork wise is good. I had elevated liver enzymes for many

years; now normal. I don’t know if I had a specific holistic test for

liver function over time.

The heavy metal screens have stayed very

high despite never ever having a filling or cavity in my life, no

immunizations, etc….and no known active access to new mercury….but

rural as I may be, I suppose you never know.

Something else to ask : Have you checked your liver function lately?

It's all intertwined. Liver function can diminish with heavy metal

toxicity, which can further impair your ability to metabolise the

mercury. Actually, a large part of the holistic detox treatment is to

improve liver function. Also, you can have a heavy metal tox screen

done, which will show how much free floating mercury is currently in

your body. Unfortunately, it will not show what mercury is still

sequestered in organs and tissue, but it will give you an idea of how

toxic your levels are at the moment.

Becuase of the state of my health, he thought milder forms of detox

were necessary.

[Guest guest]

I never had an amalgam or any other type

of filling in my teeth. No cavities ever and no vaccinations either…..

I’ve tried all the herbals, natural

detox, chelation therapy etc. I’ve been on zeolite. I’ve done EDTA

IV, DMSA using cutler method with very small doses, DMSO, cholera and so on…I

have massive

Neuro ICU type reactions when I try and

detox in the slightest most mildest form….

Cutler has a great protocol with a

detailed list of vitamins many dependent on ALA and/or NAC over time…Both of those

specifically put me in hospital.

I’ve been working with holistic docs

on this problem for 6 years now and they say I’m the most confusing case

they’ve ever seen…..okay so then what do I do????

Hi there,

First question : do you have any amalgam (silver colored mercury)

fillings? This could be a contributor as well as your environmental

exposures in the past.

Have you considered herbals and natural detox, versus chelation

therapy?

I came down with acute mercury toxicity 3 years ago, due to the

amalgams, and indulging in too much fish, in my own ignorance.

I did not want to do chelation therapy, as the long term effects can

be pretty significant. So, I did herbals, and various

vitamin/substrates, and had much success.

Today, like you, I still have some lingering health problems, but the

toxocity has much improved, as the acute symptoms seemed to have

dissipated.

If you haven't tried the holistic route, then I strongly suggest

exploring the option. Let me know if you would like the info, and I

will post it for you.
