what to take for copper toxicity?

[Guest guest]

Hi Dr Cutler/everyone

I am new here and am in desperate need of some advice from some knowledgeable

people! I am 34 and have been ill for about 15 years to which no doctor can find

a cause. I feel tired all the time, detached and 'spaced out', suffer from

nervousness and racing thoughts, nausea, light-headedness etc. I have an

appointment with a Neurologist soon for supspected POTS, and I also have PCOS

and take metformin.

I am now however, seriously considering copper toxicity as I seem to have all

the symptoms as well as the so-called 'copper personality'! For most of my life

I have either been on the pill or had the copper IUD, which I had removed 2

weeks ago. For the last few days I have been taking 50mg zinc 3 x day. What I

would like to know is, if this is ever enough for anyone with too much copper? I

have no money as I am heavily in debt due to paying for useless therapies over

the years, but if I absolutely have to take anything else then I will, but only

if it is absolutely essential, however I want and need to get better as soon as

possible, I can't live like this any more and I am getting seriously depressed.

Thank you so much for your help!
