I'm new here. Age 57 with a history of chronic illness, including

infections such as tick-borne. Disabled since 91. Extreme brain fog

and cognitive dysfunction.Recently diagnosed celiac disease. Probable

mercury exposure for years in high school while being fitted and

checked for braces at a country dentist's office. Amalgams out years

ago which made no difference in health. Some chelation at that time

with chlorella and cilantro which I understand from this list is a no-no.

I think I meet the counting rules?

Silver is high due to several years of colloidal silver for

infections. Iodine is high due to recent supplementation. Arsenic is

high due to natural amounts in water in New Mexico. Do I need to

chelate for any of these? With DMSA?

I did do about 12 EDTA IV chelations 6 years ago. Probably felt worse

during and after. I see they are a no-no too.

I see lithium is low--is that an indicator for possible mercury toxicity?

What do you experienced folks see that I don't?

Thanks!!!
