    I have seen some of your prior posts. I am suffering from food intolerance flare ups presently and I am trying to convince my Dr to let me try Ketotifen. I wanted to know if you could send me the name and phone number of your prescribing Dr. My case is my GI Drs first one of a non celiac nature and she would like to discuss it with other Drs who are using the meds. Thanks!

    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    I agree with you Siga. Anything that is going to mobilize mercury and possibly cause redistribution to the brain or cause damage to kidneys, liver, etc. is not something you wanna mess around with....especially in the beginning when the gut and excretory organs are still loaded with mercury/toxins. The road has to be clear....with pathways open so that whatever...

    Dylan, You started this thread with questions about mercury. Is this because you feel that it is part of your problem?? I cant tell you whether it is or isnt. However, if you feel that it is and if you feel like this is something that you need to pursue.....then I would encourage you to do so. Dont ever let anyone tell you are wrong for feeling...

    I still have 2 1/2 hours and I've just come up with another resolution. I need to remind myself that its not in my best interest to be open about my experiences in the presence of close minded people. I need to remember that some people have alot of negative energy that they need to release and thats ok....some people hold onto things while others...

    Dylan, Feel free to pm me if you have any other questions or just need to chat.

    With chlorella you need to be sure that it is pure. In nature algae, yeast and molds have the highest ability to absorb heavy metals. Chlorella can absorb mercury in the environment. Brands that are not pure and not tested for mercury are not the best choices. It doesnt mean that this mercury will be released into your system but any mercury passing through...

    Yes, all of the doctors that I see are also LLMD's (Lyme Literate Medical Doctor's). The majority of autistic kids do test positive for Lyme. Its important to see a doctor who is knowledgaeble on all fronts. There are many LLMD's out there who are not so knowledge about heavy metals and have no experince with chelation.....which is why I wouldnt recommend...

    Mercury does impair transport of B12. Mercury does its damage insidiously....it blocks enzymes, it interferes with how vitamins and minerals are transported and utilized in the body. It can impair detoxification, its a huge immunosuppressant, increases susceptibility to infection and the list goes on and on. It just really messes things up. You may have...

    Mercury toxicity is one of the most difficult things to diagnose. There is no easy way to determine whether or not a person is toxic from mercury. It doesnt stay in the blood for very long before the body stores it away....therefore bloodtests cant be used except for acute mercury poisoning. Acute poisoning is different.....this is what killed the woman who...

    All silver fillings (amalgam) contain mercury. From my understanding the formula was changed sometime in the early 70's and this made the fillings less stable....so that more mercury is released from those fillings. As far as I know nothing has changed since then except that more dentists are starting to not use them.

    Dylan, alot of people have felt the way that you're feeling. I felt that way. There was a time that I could not read because I could not retain any info. and like you said "everything was fuzzy". I would sit for hours and find myself just starting at the same page....so I would never really get past the first paragraph. I would zone out and find myself just...

    I think you're probably watching the "Smoking Tooth" video. The visual really affected me the first time I saw it.....which was in the waiting room of a biological dentist. Moving mercury from its storage places is not benefical unless you have alot of support for your organs and your body is able to excrete it. Yes, you can pull mercury from your brain...

    I didnt take it that way at all. I think you are just looking for an easy way to feel better right now. Honestly, in my opinion the easiest way for you to feel better is to stop taking in more toxins/chemicals. You will feel better avoiding the foods that are adding to your burden. I still have the mercury issue......if it were so easy to get it out...

    The thing that you are not understanding is that there is a REASON why all of this poison has accumulated in your body. You are not able to detox very well. By taking this stuff you will possibly be mobilizing mercury so that it is moving around your body (causing more damage) and not actually leaving your body. If you were able to excrete mercury efficiently...

    Rachelle, I really like your idea. I wish you all the luck in achieving your goal for 2009! My New Years resolution is to accept more invitations and to have more fun. When I got sick I withdrew from everything....mainly because I was just too sick to enjoy myself. I'm doing much better now but its still hard for me to throw caution to the wind...

    This person is not informed. Its like the uninformed person at the health food store telling the Celiac customer that he/she can eat spelt. They are not informed and they are giving bad advice which could be very harmful. Do not take anyones word for anything....do some good research before making rash decisions that could worsen your situation. ...

    I am going to warn you because it could be very dangerous for you to start taking these things. I never did this because if you start really researching this stuff you will understand how much damage can be done if you are trying to do this on your own. These supplements are probably NOT going to give you temporay relief (it just doesnt work that way)...
  19. Rachel--24
    HBM, YES to everything you wrote.
  20. Rachel--24
    There's always a concern about mercury with the fillings. The fillings leak mercury....nobody knows how much mercury they are going to be able to handle. They have never been able to establish a "safe" amount of mercury for a human being. The amount considered to be safe is 0. We werent designed for constant exposure to mercury. The biggest concerns would...

    Yes, and we do have high incidence of gluten/casein intolerance now. The enzyme is DPPIV....its very sensitive to mercury. This is one reason why kids with autism do so much better on Gluten-free Casein-free....and many of them are able to go off this diet with the use of enzymes which are high in DPPIV (these are non-Celiac's of course). Alot of...

    It does affect certain people differently. Genetics play a role in this. Also, being as young as you are you would have most likely been exposed to mercury from vaccinations. Another thing is that if your mom has fillings alot of her mercury burden would have been passed to you. 1/3 of the mother's mercury burden is passed to the fetus. The first born will...

    I havent had a cough that could be attributed to gluten but I definately think that its a possibility for you. I dont do well with processed foods and usually avoid it. Earlier this year while I was eating things I shouldnt have been eating I caught a cold which turned into a bad cough. Every day the cough would clear up...until I ate. Immediately after...

    Lectins are not a part of the Failsafe diet. Failsafe removes food chemicals from the diet. Alot of people are Gluten-free Casein-free while also trying Failsafe. If you know you have a problem with any food that is NOT restricted on the Failsafe diet then you should continue to avoid that food. There are foods that I have problems with that would...
  25. Rachel--24
    Not a burden at all. We're all here to learn....ask as many questions as you'd like.
