Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hello, I had my amalgam fillings replaced a few months ago and have been following the frequent dose chelation protocol, with good results. So, first of all, thanks so much to Andy. There's no way to fully express my gratitude for your help. Likewise, thanks to all the others here who have provided helpful information and encouragement during this process. I was wondering if anyone here had experienced this particular digestive symptom. For several years, I've been experiencing what I can best (although not adequately) describe as " anxiety " that is centered in my abdomen. It is not painful, but it is extremely uncomfortable, in that it makes me feel that I want to jump out of my skin, so to speak. It seems to occur after I eat or drink, although I haven't been able to identify particular offending foods. Taking a couple of digestive enzyme capsules with meals seems to help somewhat, although they don't solve the problem completely. So, any ideas about what this could be, or how to help fix it? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hi , I am sorry if this answer is somewhat off-topic, but what you are describing seems very similar to what happened to me for many years. I would described it as a sort of combination of tightness-anxiety-pressure located in my abdomen. The sensation was constant and produced (or maybe was caused by?) a sort of permanent restlessness. Something quite miserable indeed. In my case I think the problem had a psychological origin, since it resolved about a year after I started to practice mindfulness meditation and have not bothered me since then. I suppose that some other techniques like yoga, relaxation techniques, etc. could probably be of help as well. I hope I am not misleading you! Maybe we are talking about very different things!

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 I have a similar experience, and it has been pretty much continuous and very miserable. The feeling is like my intestine is clenched like a fist and won't relax. It is a dull constant ache that is there when I wake until when I go to sleep. It might get worse after a big meal and get slightly less worse when hungry but it is always there. It feels like the stomach is twisted out of shape, so it causes a dull, non-specific ache rather than a sharp pain. I am normally not an anxious person, but it does feel as if the abdomen is responding to some kind of anxiety, like what your gut would feel like seconds before an impending auto accident or something. I would give anything to have it go away since its been there now for a couple of years. > > Subject: Re: Digestion symptom question > To: frequent-dose-chelation > Date: Monday, July 28, 2008, 12:12 PM > Hi , > > I am sorry if this answer is somewhat off-topic, but what > you are > describing seems very similar to what happened to me for > many years.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 It might have something to do with Potassium - I know that " anxiety felt in the stomach " is one of the symptoms we use to prescribe the Potassium group of remedies as homoeopathics.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Carrageenan turned out to be a huge contibuting cause of " belly issues " for me...and, too often, it feels like carrageenan is Everywhere, and in Everything....The usual biomed nutritional answers - enzymes & amino acids for close to a year, was a biggish one - helped with my belly issues immensely, but avoiding carrageenan, specifically ( & related thickeners, in general) feels like the best thing I Ever did for my belly. I have been " belly issue " free for over a year or so now, and it still is a surreal blessed thing to me, after over 20 yrs of " must be normal for me " belly pain & discomfort...btw, the onset of the " serious belly pain " , which was diag. as ibd/psychological at that time, I can and do connect to mercury toxicity - for me, catchup vacs & amalgam placement/braces - and the rest, as they say, is history... wishing you the best answers elizabeth > > Hello, > > I had my amalgam fillings replaced a few months ago and have been following the frequent > dose chelation protocol, with good results.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 An add on... Any liver supplement support also helps with my digstive anxiety--- a pain but not a bend over in agony pain, so you can get through the day pain and everyone thinks you are making it up pain..LOL... I agree it is heavy metal linked. It feels like a burning pain to me that just sits there and my doctor said alot of burning pain is heavy metal related.. The upper pain in my gut went away after a few months of chelation with the lower still there. But the upper did return after another 5 chelation rounds.. so the metals coming out got stuck there again I assume. If you need more sulfur , maybe add some more to your diet. Me NAC helps alot, milk thistle seed ground up, vitamin c and magnesium to help keep the bowels moving, antioxidants like quercitin come to mind.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Serotonin is the neurotransmitter of the gut, so perhaps 5-HTP would help. > > " anxiety " that is centered in my abdomen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
