Re: Re DMSA and the supplements I'm on -

I don't know if this will help, but it might--do you have any internal clay

or activated charcoal? It might sop up some of the mercury that might be

circulating. At any rate, it can't make you worse and won't make any more

circulate....

You might try it...

A clay bath might help too...

Maybe some apple pectin? Something to absorb the circulating toxins.

Are there NO other doctors in your area? You definately need to find a new one.

Maybe you should skip that doctor completely. Save the money

you would have spent on her and travel somewhere to see a good

doctor. If you see someone in person only once, often they

will continue working with you via phone meetings. You really

are just going to get sicker the way you are going. You don't

want to end up in a hospital - that would be worse in some ways

than the doctor you have now (though it might be necessary if

you don't get into better shape soon).

Try to get some kind of adrenal support. Licorice extract if

you can get it. I think you have really walloped your adrenals

(that's just a guess, but it's not a wild one). I realize

getting on cortef takes some effort. For now, try taking some

B5 along with vitamin C frequently throughout the day.

Licorice extract will help more - or ashwaganda. Those may help

you enough to tackle the problem of getting some cortef.

I wish I knew what else to suggest to you. Do you have a friend

or family member who can help you track down some better help?

If your adrenals are in bad shape, it is hard to do anything to

take care of yourself and fixing this first would be the best

step you can take.

TK--- Hi , Many of us are on our own and cannot use the

amount of DMSA you did. I see [always helpful] has looked some

things up for you which is why we are all here. If you need further

help with anything please ask.
