Re: Chelation Physicians; K.I.M. Most drs are morons

[Guest guest]

mathurhoden, I truly feel for your predicamant, hang in there..

I have found sometimes it is best to take a break from all the

supplements and start to re-add one by one over a period (taking at

least a week to see how you handle ecah one) and try to keep your

diet consistment and boring so as not to bring in any food allergies

to the mix

Also try not to get too overwhelemed with an aggressive treatment plan

and break down your symptoms/treatments one by one. I know this is

tedious and takes time but if it is heavy metals, like many of us you

have multiple problems

I think its important to try to identify and then treat one problem

at a time. Otherwise it does become overwhelming with trying to treat

symptoms blindly or even trying to define what the heck is wrong.

You say you have high blood pressure, so try to treat this properly.

and completely.Stress can aggravate this from what I understand.

I agree with what I think TK said below, don't bother sharing your

treatment plan with your co-workers as ignorance is rampant in the

health care industry about anything that does not fit the medical

dogma. This can create more stress and anxiety and doubt in your own

mind...if you're sick you do not need this extra stress by having to

justify your illness.

I agree with Tk in taking the adrenal test as it seems everyone has

either low cortisol or high cortisol with low Dhea. This is a good

starting point. If your clinic has arrangements do it there otherwise

go to another clinic so you can feel more comfortbale and have some

confidentiality. This peer pressure alone is probably contributing to

some of your anxiety, You can contact Diagnos-techs in Wash state at

to request a test kit and I am sure get a dr to sign off

on ordering the tests for you. Results are wihin a week and then the

treatment can begin. Its also pretty cheap ($100-$200) and your

health care will likely cover.

Reward yourself for the fact that you seem to know that you do not

have MCS(Mult-Chem-Sensivities). At least you have narrowed the

symptoms down.

Consider consulting with Andy only after you have more information from your

tests. His fee I believe is $450 to analyze your history (with your

dr) but again i think its best to focus on diagnosing one problem at

a time.

Hang in there, many of us have been or are in a similiar predicament

This forum is extremely helpful but you have to take it one step at a

time.

Maybe I am just lucky but after a month on the protocol I feel better

than I have in 3 years. (primarily sulphur food problems and I belive

phase 1-phase 2 liver problems...you can deal with this tests later)

So I am hopeful that I will get on top of what has ailed me and I am

sure you will to
