Mercury poisoning symptom?

[Guest guest]

I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of Patulous Eustachian Tube

Dysfunction? Its rare a physical disorder/disease of the tube that

connects the back of the nose to the ear canal. The tube functions as a

pressure valve for the outside ambient air as well as the ear in the

middle ear. This function is best noticed at high altitudes, etc, where

the pressure built-up on the outside is controlled through a pop in the

middle ear relieving this pressure. As a sufferer of this disease, I

breathe through my left ear and it pops upon inhale and exhale. There

is also a constant fullness/dryness, in and around the ear/head.

Does anyone believe this is a symptom of mercury poisoning and/or

something else?

Thanks for the help,

, I started having trouble with my left ear 'blocking up'

inside on & off starting about age 14. A doctor called it

a " blocked eustachian tube " and said it was ok and that nothing

could be done. It did 'pop' going in and out & was an extremely

annoying situation. It made it very hard to listen to others. I

think it was sensitive to humidity (? never quite sure what set it

off) and it almost always would block up for hours when I worked out

or got a hard sweat going. I don't remember associating it with

altitudes.

I'm responding because this opened up, I assume permanently, right

after the fillings were removed on that side of my mouth...and this

was over 30 years after it started. The ear had also been ringing

constantly for decades. This symptom continued, and I hadn't been

hearing well through it, either. During the 2nd chelation round

where I took low doses of ALA I had sharp ear pains one afternoon.

Within a few hours, the ringing stopped and I'm hearing clearly with

it.

Before knowing about mercury toxicity, I was managing this & some

other symptoms on my own with really rigorous workouts (running 45

minutes) for about a decade. After a few years, it was taking 20

minutes to start sweating, even in 90 degree temps, but sweat was what

seemed to relieve it. The workouts felt good, but it wasn't long

before I'd collapse for the rest of that day and the next. Eventually

I was too weak to keep it up.

Once my amalgams were out, the 'rubberband' headache/pressure

subsided. When I take low doses of ALA, it returns with a vengeance,

so I think chelating with ALA will be a very slow process.

Does this ringing get worse when your sick ?

Ive had a very wierd experience when i was sick and taking a bath with

my ears under water and i could literally play music by hitting my

ears softly. Alot of strange metallic sounding bells went off and it

was kind of funny. Is this mercury ?
