Re: Re: New - intro and some questions

Hi, Sheri!

Welcome!

AS far as I know, combination of 3 amalgam fillings+ASD son+problematic daughter suggest that you should have heavy metals problem yourself, at least mercury. You had amalgam fillings and most likely your body didn't dispose of mercury from them completely, otherwise you wouldn't have problems with depression, arthritis and etc., including ASD son. As far as tests go, we did Comprehensive Stool Analisys (Doctor's Data) for my toddler and it didn't show anything, but when we did NutrEval (Genova Diagnostics), we saw that candida and clostridia biomarkers were well in the red zone, crazy numbers.

Take care,

Dina.

Re: New - intro and some questions

Hi Sheri, Welcome to the group!I have a couple of tidbits for you: In regards to Meniere's disease. The bookkeeper who helped me with mycorporate taxes suffers from it very badly. Before meeting her, I'dnever heard of it.Anyway - my son has been on Boluoke (lumbrokinase) for a while, tobreak up his thick clotty blood. Before giving it to him, I researchedthe hell out of it (like I do everything) and I came across areference of it being used to treat meniere's. So I sent the link toher. Not sure if she did anything with it - may have been grossed outby the source: earthworms. I'll ask her next time we speak, it's beenabout 6 months. You may want to google boluoke, lumbrokinase andmeniere's in different combinations to see if you find any usefulinformation.I have arthritis too and I'm only 40. It comes and goes. Comes when Ieat artificial food additives (mmmmm - Haribo Gold Gummy Bears!) andgoes when I put my hands and feet in front of a Far Infrared Saunaheater. I believe there is also a bacterial connection of some sort(perhaps lyme arthritis?) but I haven't figured it out yet. It's awork in progress, but on the back burner for the moment. It's nolonger a problem so long as I don't eat chemicals.>> Hi everyone.
