    I have had somewhat of a setback I'm sure it's from my own inability to pace myself. When I feel good I always overdo it. So it started last week. On Monday I had my second IV chelation treatment. I felt really good afterward as I did with the first one. So on Wednesday when I was off work I spent the whole day painting my office. I was exhausted by the...

    Thanks Tom! I did have a great b-day thanks to my awesome husband and sons Congrats on the keys and I hope you get settled quickly. I know you're happy just to be there.

    Thanks for the info. That's some scary stuff...no more cilantro for me!! You haven't given me the doctor's name yet. If you can find it, I'd appreciate it.

    Thanks for everyone's responses. I do have a scar on my ankle and elbow. They healed nicely though and only look like a scratch at this point not a surgical scar. I used rose hip seed oil mixed with helichrysum and it helped tremendously with scar tissue. I love aromatherapy. How would I go about finding a doctor who does ART testing? I...

    I would like your expert opinions on what is going on with me. Friday I ate a bunch of cilantro with some chicken. Later that evening I also took a detox bath (dead sea salt, epsom salt and detox essential oils). Saturday I woke up with my forearm hurting like it's never hurt before. Almost 3 years ago I fell roller skating and dislocated my elbow, shattered...

    I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. I hope the cloud goes away soon also!

    Susie, Try searching for tryptophan and serotonin. I'm taking tryptophan and getting really good results. My doctor prescribed it to me for adrenal fatigue, to help with sleep. I never had a problem sleeping, but now it seems my sleep is more restful and beneficial. I'm also feeling better overall which is probably the serotonin increase that I needed....

    Where's Tom? I hope you're feeling better and back to your upbeat self. I saw the other day that you were down. I hope all the others who have been struggling will get to feeling better too. Rinne, thanks for the poem. It was great.

    I had my second chelation IV today. I am very tired now. It takes 2 hours for the IV to complete. I should have taken a nap while it was going, but I read instead. I thought I was going in tomorrow for it, but my trusty Outlook calendar reminder let me know today was the day. I asked the doctor about lyme, parasites and candida. He explained that they are...

    This is so typical, but infuriating nonetheless! I have had to pay for all these medical/dental treatments upfront and then submit them to my health and dental insurance. I've been hoping for re-imbursement, but not expecting it for the health stuff. I really didn't think I'd have a problem with my dental insurance. But, here's the explanation of benefits...

    I have not been tested for Lyme, but I think it came up on the EAV testing they did. The doctor asked if I had ever been bit by a tick and I told him that I had. He said that we would treat these things first and then address the Lyme if it really were an issue. He seems to be confident that the metals are my main problem. When I'm there on Tuesday for the...

    I figured that you had tried everything and that it was more a symptom of bart. anyway, but wanted to mention it just in case. Has anyone taken the food intolerance test at Optimum Health Resource Labs? I think they used to be York Labs. I did the 96 food intolerance testing and sent it in early August and I haven't heard a word! I really regret ordering...

    Rachel - I'm sorry to hear about the bad reaction you had. I know how frustrating that can be. It sounds like you had a good doctor's appointment though. I hope your mom's house will be aired out and won't affect you again. Carla & Donna - Have either of you tried Tryptophan for your sleep issues? I'm taking 1000 mg each night and seem to be getting...

    Thanks for all the support. I actually feel a bit better, more clear this morning. My jaw hurts from having all the dental work done, but that's to be expected. It seems like I have a whole pharmacy on my counter that I'm taking each day But, it won't be that way forever so I'm ok with that. Yeah this is a unique clinic and I feel very fortunate...

    I am home and amalgam free I spent 2 hours at the dentist and then 3 hours at the doctor's office. A whole day of it. I'm kinda wiped out, but excited at the same time. The results of all the tests (as they summed it up) are that I have been living on no hormones and adrenaline. The heavy metal test showed that several are elevated, mercury, lead and bismuth...

    Tom, Would you mind sharing your dressing recipe? You've mentioned it a couple of times and now I'm curious. I just might like to make some for myself. I eat lots o' salads. Thanks, Ami

    Tom, I can use garlic and ginger, but no lemon. Lemon was one of the things that showed up on the EAV testing that I should avoid. I do use garlic, but haven't used ginger in quite a while. It's just difficult figuring out what I can eat and what my boys will eat. Luckily, my husband isn't very picky. He never complains about what I cook and is actually...

    Hi Tom, Your misnomer phrases would definitely fit into my dialogue lately. It seems that I can't eat much or exert much energy without adverse effects. It's so very frustrating. I guess from reading your posts soy was a big one for you. I thought gluten was the answer for me, but unfortunately it was just one piece to the puzzle. Luckily though because...

    Hi all, I have been feeling so bad lately. It seems like everything I eat makes me feel bad. I'll wake up feeling ok, but as the day progresses I feel worse. It has been a little over 2 weeks since I went to the new doctor and had all those tests done. One of which was the provoked urine challenge. The day after I had this done I actually felt better...

    I just got back from my doctor's appointment. I have spent most of my day there! They also sent me over to a dentist that I really like. Lots 'o testing and lots of information. I'm going to attempt to share the experience. I did a 24 hour urine collection starting on Saturday that I gave them for testing this morning. They also did electrodermal testing...

    I have a new approach. I spoke to the doctor who the dentist referred me to and they want to run some tests to determine the protocol first. After speaking to the nurse she seems to think I'm having thyroid problems, adrenal stress, possibly other hormone issues along with the heavy metal toxicity. So I'm going to see them on Monday to start the testing....

    I just got back from my appointment with the dentist. I have so much work that needs to be done. I have 4 crowns that need to be replaced, because they are made of nickel and could have amalgam underneath as well. I have 1 mercury filling that needs to be replaced. I have another mercury filling that needs to come out and a crown needs to be put in. I also...
