Results #168 - Lyme Person - V.High Nickel - Suggestions please

May 17, 2008

I'd greatly appreciate your comments on my test results at :-

HTI book just arrived this morning ... I seem fine by the counting

rules and my mercury appears low. But my Nickel at 5.6 ug/g seems

much higher than other charts I've seen. I've had no known exposure

to Nickel through my work or wearing jewellry.

Should I still suspect Mercury as the underlying cause and press ahead

with DMSA and ALA protocol once my amalgams have been removed ?

Do I also need to be directly targeting the high Nickel - if so what

with ?

Further information ...

UK based.

Had Lyme Disease for coming up to 6 years. Health was v.good up to

that point. Non-smoker.

Have prevously tried Salt/C protocol - higher sodium would be

attributable to salt - pure sea salt which also contains minerals.

More recently have been on the 3 Buhner core protocol herbs for the

past few months - they kill Lyme bacteria - (Cats Claw, Japanese

Knotweed and Andrograhis) - but am able only to get up to about 1/4

of the recommended dose - above this makes head feels very bad, and

hands turn very red, skin is dry, also had v.sore throat and aching

wrist joints - suggesting to me a big toxin release from Lyme die

off. Taking any one of herbs individually will cause hands to turn

red, so it's not an allergy to any one herb - only know of one other

person on this protocol that gets the red hands/feet.

Typically take 4-12 gms Vit C/day.

Have 12 sizeable amalgam fillings, which have been in for 30 + years,

but will be replaced soon.

Sleep is very poor. Significant exercise will cause a burning

sensation in my head and puts me out of action for the next day or so.

Comments greatly appreciated,

thanks,

.
