Guest guest Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 So sorry, Barbara, but I'll have to defer to someone like Jim who has more experience with the concurrent issues you mentioned. I know it's not helpful that mercury shares symptoms with other toxins, but it feels like that may be at the bottom of your hit list with all the challenges you have at the moment.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Barbara, I haven't read this full thread, but here's my two cents on your situation. This month for me has had a very strong monthly moon flare. That might account for some of your symptoms. From what someone posted about the moon cycle, next month could be worse. Check the calendar to see how it might fit for you. About mercury, in my experience yes it is very attached to the bugs and gets released with the treatment. I've been treating mercury toxicity for years without being able to make much of a dent in it. It appears I have made a great leap forward this past year while coiling. My LLMD's position has always been that the killing and chelating need to be done together--back and forth between the two. That seems to have been the case for me. While coiling I have noticed what seemed to be more release of mercury. Since I muscle test myself, I noticed that I seemed to be needing more chelator/more frequently. My doctor said I could do it more often, which I did. Two years ago my mercury levels were way off the charts--scary levels. That is in spite of treatment of it for 7-8 years already. Partly this level showing up was because I was starting to move it better. That was due to figuring out my methylation issues and supporting that area much better. Even so, my LLMD was extremely impressed with the progress I made in the past year since I started coiling. A year ago my level of mercury was something like 15-20, two years ago it was over 30 as I recall. This year it was 1.5 (under 4 is considered " normal " ). He told me that I am not finished yet, just that the mercury is out of the more readily accessible areas. So I have added a second chelator which will assist to move it out of the harder to get areas. I notice I can't do this too often. I take enzyme with the chelator and then do my coiling an hour after that, followed by binders, lots of detox and extra potassium (my chelator pulls out potassium). Extra water, etc. One final piece that you could consider, is making sure your mineral and electrolyte levels are adequate. This is very important for detoxing the mercury, and may also be important for coiling effectivenss (just my personal experience), and for detox in general. I personally need at least a minimum of 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt, and 30 MeQ of potassium every day, plus I take magnesium by injection. I recently had a herx start and set in for weeks--it was herx/flare, or whatever and I couldn't figure out what was going on. It turned out to be salt deficiency (in my transition back and forth to the USA I had stopped adding sea salt to my drinking water.) Once I corrected that, I started a consistent upward trajectory and am back to at least where I was before all that started in January if not better. I'm now taking the salt with C, like a salt/C protocol and may continue to build that up over time.
