Made Myself Sick

HI everyone

I made myself so sick this weekened. Guess what I did? I left a molded lemon in my cabinet and was inhaling and eating the spores. Yes It's true. So I have had pop rock candy guts allll this time. I also feel sooo hungry even after i eat and I am losing weight drastically. 96 pounds has anyone been this thin before. I don't know what to do. Should I open the doors or keep them closed or what? Should I take a probiotic even if I have mercury and candida already. I don't know. Rachel what do you think is the best to do in this situation. I was wondering if I should take seacure to keep the weight on but you said it might not work. I am desperated. the dentist won't see me till the 15 of may. He will only work on one tooth at a time because of the immune system he said. If he does more my highly surpressed immune system will go down and the mercury will attack in full force. I am scared and worried. I feel sicker everyday and my bladder pain is worse. They have air filtration systems their also. The only dentist in fresno that has it. He knows what he is talking about. He gave me information on mercury and what it can do. 87% of people with multiple sclerosis got better or cured after the mercury was out.

he gave me a facts sheet I will type more stuff later. I also had to take a blood test to show what kind of composites that he can work with to put back in my mouth since some composites will be more toxic than mercury because of the mercury in my system. A special lab had to do a in vitro test with the blood the different materials and mercury to see the reaction. The dentist can't just put anything in my teeth or mouth because later on it can be more toxic and I would never get better. Just pray that I will make It through this. I will pray for you all to.

Lisa, I'm sorry you are feeling bad.

I think your dentist is right in going slow with the amalgam removal since you are so sensitive. Anyone with mercury toxicity is going to have a candida problem because the body allows more candida to neutralize the mercury. I don't know that I'd mess with the candida until you are working on getting the mercury out.

I LOVE to air out my house. The first thing I do when it's nice outside is open the windows! I hate the dead of winter when the house is all closed up. The other option is an air cleaner.

I wouldn't think that one lemon would put that much mold into the air, but airing out the house is a good idea. I'd wash out where the lemon was, too.

I've heard about a lot of people around here being that thin before. Just keep eating right, and try to eat more often than you really want to. I found weight lifting to be a help because my body built up some muscle, but I'd avoid cardio right now if I were you.

Lisa,

Be really careful with mold. Hopefully you dont have any mold in your home....other than the lemon. I would definately air out the house but breathing the spores like you did could mess you up for awhile.

Also make sure you get rid of the lemon in an outside garbage.

I took the bloodtest to check for compatibility also. Its true that you could be sensitive to any materials they put in your mouth. Its a good idea to know whats safe so you dont end up with composites you're allergic to....which would make everything worse. It sounds like your dentist is really good. I'm gald you're in good hands.

I also like that hes only removing one filling at a time. As sick as you are right now...that is definately the best way to go about it. He doesnt want you to get too much exposure at one time. He's doing the best he can to not get you more sick during the process.

Hopefully he'll space out the removals so that your body has time to detox what it can in between...hopefully either your dentist or your Dr. will have you on detox supplements to help your body deal with any exposure you may have during the removal. It should be very minimal because he's got the right equipment...but still...you need all the protection you can get.

I wasnt sick at all before my amalgam removal. I didnt really want them taken out but one of them was broken and the dentist said the other one was deteriorating...so he needed to replace them. I didnt know anything about mercury at that time. He didnt use anything to protect me...just drilled them out.

Thats how I got sick...right after that I started getting all the symptoms and reacting to chemicals, foods, molds and everything else. It happened really fast...within weeks I was on disability. :(

Personally I would not take the SeaCure or the probiotics or anything else right now. SeaCure got me alot sicker. I lost all kinds of weight and couldnt gain anything back. I was at 94 lbs. and I didnt start gaining until I stopped the supplements...all of them....even the probiotics.

Once I stopped taking supplements I gained more than 10 lbs. and my weight has been stable ever since. Its been about a year now....my weights been stable at 110. I cant gain anything more but at least I'm not losing.

My body cant process alot of this stuff so even if its "suppossed" to be good...its not necessarily good for ME. Some of it can be quite bad or even toxic because it doesnt get utilized the way it should or the immune system is reactive to it.

I would stop taking supplements and see how you feel after a few weeks. If you want you can always try them again...one at a time though...so you can see if you develop problems or additional symptoms.

I know SeaCuRE affected me in a bad way. I wouldnt take it...after all its FISH. :o

It might contain mercury...I dont know but I did get ALOT worse taking the SeaCure. <_<

I have it all written in my journals I was keeping back then....It was definately SeaCure making me sicker. I didnt ever think about the fact that it could contain mercury until you mentioned it a couple weeks ago...I think you're probably right about that!! It could definately explain why I was getting so much worse!!

I hope you feel better soon.

P.S.

I also responded to your post in the OMG thread. :)

Dear Lisa,

I was once down to 84 pounds! I was very ill. I still am, but now I am holding my weight (a bit too well, actually!) I could stand to lose a few now. Mold is difficult to avoid. It seems to be everywhere! Make sure you do not have it in your fridge. Spoiled food can trigger reactions even when you do not eat it! Keep your produce in the fridge. Really, when you have Candida, you are to not eat vinegar, leftovers (food 24 hours or more old), alcohol, fermented foods, fruit, refined carbohydrates, dairy or sugar. Yeast is also out in any form. I definitely feel worse on days it rains. It has been raining for three days now. Sunday we should finally get some sun again. Holding your weight is difficult at times. Candida can make you too thin or too fat.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms? 
    • Wheatwacked
      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.  
    • Samanthaeileen1
      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
