Re: Symptoms worse post-removal

[Guest guest]

You don't need to do any more testing to get started chelating.

Starting on DMSA alone for awhile will likely help a lot with your

symptoms.

TK--- yes for a lot of people. Some people feel better with removal

and it continues others feel better for a little while and then gets

worse without chelating.

TK--- It may never without chelating depending on many factors.

TK--- no it isn't really a good thing, it means you are fairly or

very toxic and the mobilization is causing damage - side effects.

You should start as soon as possible with a low oral dose of DMPS or

DMSA to get rid of the Hg. Make sure you take care of pathogens,

thyroid and adrenals insufficiency if needed also as they are common

problems for many of us.

-Nicola,

I too am battling the same type of thing. I have heard it is very

common to have more problems after removal as you get closer to the

3 month mark. I know I too felt great for a while...

It is time to chelate as I understand it. Yes, our bodies are

starting to dump mercury but where it goes depends on what we do. I

too have begun dmsa to stop from getting any sicker. And to be

honest..it isn't what I psyched myself up to be. I was a coward and

nervous it would make me sicker. But it didn't. It didnt make me

feel worse at all. I had some odd things like I felt calmer, vivid

dreams, the urge to organize things! But nothing compared to the ill

effects I feel everyday anyway. I don't know if this helps calm you

any on using a chelator. I think it is a necessary part of getting

better.

thanks for this. It IS helpful. My body is so sensitive to food and

medications I am scared to try DMSA, especially after some of the

things I have read. I wanted to wait until September when I see my

dentist again and try to persuade him to prescribe oral DMPS. But I

am feeling pretty lousy, so I may give the DMSA a very tentative try.

Are you now chelating on a regular basis and seeing improvements?

To TK: When you say, " take care of pathogens " - exactly what do you

mean by this? Which pathogens, and how do you recommend they be

taken care of?

I am not sure if I responded to your post on sensitivity or someone

elses, but we encounter this all the time on the mercury austim

board. Many kids and adults there (even ones without austim) cannot

tolerate medications and foods in the beginning. One of the things

they have spoken of that are very helpful are digestive enzymes. One

of the reason for reacting to everything, is that your body is not

digesting it thoroughly and it passes into your intestines that way.

Your body is not equipped to handle partly digested anything, and

therefore reacts. So many of them report better tolerance following

digestive enzymes and probiotics. As I understand it, mercury

destroys most of the natural enzyme processes in your body. So this

helps replace them.

My daughter who is amalgam sick has shown improvements in two

rounds. I did one round which went well. I have however, stopped at

the moment because I have learned that my hair is sky high for

cadmium. And cadmium poisoning requires some other cautions to

chelate it. I do not have those supplements in place yet. Once I do

will continue. We are all on probiotics, and using yeast treatment.

I find that yeast makes you feel worse and more sensitive to things

too.
