In Oct 2005 I was in a pretty awful state, hair falling out,
exhuasted after showering, greasing breakouts behind my ears and
throughout my scalp. My anxiety level was extreme, although I would
not have considered myself to be experiencing anxiety attacks, just
in a constant anxious state, not to mention my mouth was sore and
that dam tooth I must see a dentist.. who of you haven't experienced
this. After praying to god for help, I Googled and Hal Huggins told
me it was all in my head. So convinced that I needed to get my
almagams removed 14 of them plus two crowns and two root canals. The
dental work was carried out by quadrant, although I don't think that
it was in order of highest negative current, it was done progessively
over 4 months for amalgams and a couple of months later for the root
canals. During this time I had substantial IVC which did help, plus
other supplemtents. By the time I got to a doctor and had a DMPS
challenge the results came back for mercury around 138, so the
information that I had at hand was DMPS first, then DMSA afterwards
to get it out of the brain. Over approximately 6 months I had approx
15 DMPS treatments plus at other times IVC, Zinc, Vit B and
Glutathione, I seemed to be doing quite well until I got an infection
in a mishap at the dentist with a tooth, that ultimately became
infected and had to be extracted. So, I continued and thought that I
need to consider opportunist bacteria as something that needed to be
looked at, and I commenced a low dose antibiotic treatment. And then
I was introduced to Natural Cellular Defense and of course I am keen
to get well the doctor that I see has seen patients mercury blood
levels reduced using this treatment. I was feeling pretty good,
still not fully participating in life but had commenced picking up
then pieces. In April/May this year a few things happened that
required me to stretch myself to my limit, and in some ways I feel
that I am back to square one. I feel that the doctor although he
provides IV chelation and will prescibe DMSA orally and I am on a
DMSA treatment of 1 tab 3 times a day for 3 days 9 off. I feel
obsessive that I need to get the mercury and have recently read
Amalgam Illness by Andrew Hall Cutler. NOTE: It has only been the
chelation treatments, plus IVC that really seem to help me. My most
recent blood mercury was 13 (I don't know the unit of measure)
According to Andrew Cutlers book I would be in the lowest functioning
group ie: I would lay on the couch all day have food cooked for me,
if someone came to the door, I would not want to answer and if I did,
I would appear normal while visitors were there, but once gone fall
in a heap. I am not quite back to the state, but feel not far from
it. I am hoping that someone in this group might be from Australia,
and have had success in being treated and recovery in Australia.
Didn't mean to write an essay, but needed to give some back ground to
indicate level of desperation. And yes, I have become a recluse, that
had started to venture out while I was going well and now having
trouble getting out of the house again.
Please, can anyone help me? I'm too tired to be having to convince
doctors about this protocol.
Hope to hear from someone soon. Michelle Australia
