Questions about digestion

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I got my amalgams out last December and am looking for help now

because of yeast infections and other symptoms that reminded me of the

rough time I had around my amalgam removal. When I saw the chart in

Amalgam Illness that said that symptoms would go up as mercury was

cleared from the blood and started exiting the organs, I said, Oh boy,

that's me! It's scary, even though I think I'm over the hump, it's

been ten months.

My concerns are about allergies and digestion. I have chronic

constipation and a hard time digesting most things. After reading AI,

now I know why. The holistic dentist I went to for removal was

helpful in a big way because when I told her I had digestive problems,

she said, Maybe you're gluten intolerant. I'm gluten intolerant too,

and the gluten free diet really helps. So I tried that and now I see

that I'm gluten intolerant in a BIG way. Going gluten free cleared up

a lot of symptoms. But I get crippling depression and tingling in my

hands and feet for 24 hours if I eat even microscopic amounts of

gluten. Good to know that I'm fine if I keep away from it, but it

really really is a pain in the ass in terms of eating food anywhere

except in my home. I would do A LOT to cure this condition, or even

make it so that I'm a bit less intolerant.

And speaking of a pain in the ass, my other big problem is bleeding

hemorrhoids. I'm only 33! I have had this problem for a few years

now. I had it all under control with diet (no nuts, high fiber, no

chocolate etc) and then when I did the amalgam removal, it all went to

hell in a handbasket. So my questions are:

Animal enzymes: What brands have people had a good experience with?

I need some powerful stuff here.

Hemorrhoids: Should I wait the few months it will take to heal this

up before taking DMPS? Do people find that DMPS is hard on the ass?

(or some other more delicate way of putting it)

Gluten intolerance: Curable? The Celiac literature says no way, no

how, don't even think about it. Has anyone had any experience in this

area?

Thank you for reading this long post. It is incredibly validating to

read AI and the posts on this site. I wish everyone good luck and

good health!
