ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something

HOLY COW....me either!! Anyways.....I cant really say that I "embraced" the PINK....I think it was actually the other way around. Its so strange how things happen in my life but a couple days after I made a fuss about it here on the thread...PINK came into my life. I dont think I've ever actually worn pink...except maybe as a child. At... -

Charlie, I'll be keeping your sister in my prayers. I'm looking forward to your update when you have the time. I'd also like to hear how your sister is doing. If you end up sending some pm's....I'd like one. In the meantime...hope things are going ok for you and for your family. -

I have to go back and find Julies posts about the color PINK....and its ability to HEAL. Do you guys remember what I said about me and pink..."we just dont go together"..."I think pink might dramatically worsen my condition"...etc....etc?? Holy Cow....I might have been very WRONG about this. I will have to find these posts and then later... -

Definately not the low oxalate diet....thats not something I just started recently. I'd already been avoiding those foods for quite some time (I didnt know they were high oxalate though). Also....I found one brand of chocolate chips that I dont react badly too....and I've eaten a ton of them this past week. Chocolate/cocoa is supposed to be high oxalate... -

Mia..thanks for the reminder about the colonics and enemas. I wont be doing IV chelation on a regular basis....its just for the challenge test. For now I'm staying on the DMSA protocol...which I'll most likely continue through the rest of the year. One of my MD's prefers DMSA...the other DMPS. Dr S. is the one who prefers DMPS....but I... -

I thought I would mention that I have learned that melatonin displaces mercury in the body....which causes symptoms similar to what you're describing. It can also cause a "hang-over" type feeling in the morning. If thats what you experience with melatonin...it could be that you have a problem with mercury. This is some of the stuff I read.. ... -

Thanks Jin, Judy and everyone else. I pray I dont have problems with anything. When I schedule the DMPS he wants it done on a Friday...so I can rest before returning to work. If I have any kind of stress going on...or just dont feel good...then he doesnt want me to get the DMPS until it passes. Once I get the test done....it'll be 2 weeks till... -

I saw Dr. S. tonight.....its been a few months since I've seen him. Remember how he used to be so glum about my situation...and hang his head down with frusteration?? Well... there was NONE of that tonight. It was GREAT! He kept saying that he was very impressed with the changes. He just seemed pretty amazed by it...he was pretty stunned... -

I've had the same thing....its usually happening when my urine is particularly dark. I've always linked it with toxins and foods I've eaten. I noticed it especially when I used to eat grains...seems like the molds in grains and nuts affect me pretty badly and it changes the appearance/smell of my urine. Same here. I dont eat sugars without protein... -

As a moderator I cant ignore ALL posts.....I will respond to something that pertains to things such as where its appropriate to post off-topic posts, etc. Scott has brought these off-topic posts to my attention more than once.

Well....maybe NOT if I keep eating all of this chocloate. Seriously though....I really hope so and thanks for the encouragement! I'm 36....another reason I want to work with one of the best Dr.'s....I dont have alot of time to mess around. I gotta get rid of these toxins...and fast. I would love to have more than one child...but we'll see... -

Because this is Scott's board and we are priviledged to post here about all of these issues. He can choose to move it at his discretion. I hope we can have respect for those who do not want to lose the thread and who find value in it with regards to their health issues. There is plenty of room for off-topicness in the threads which are located in gab... -

As far as chocolate goes....does it really have lead in it?? If so...I'm getting my fair share of it as we speak. I've probably went through about 8 bags of chocolate in the past week. I dont really know whats going on with my body but it seems as if things are continuing to improve. Yes, I ate normal food with everyone else two days... -

Yeah...thats my understanding as well. The major stuff gets done in the office by a trained practitioner...the "at home" laser is good for all sorts of other things. -

Thanks Susie! I'm one who is still hoping to have babies. I'm extra motivated to clean up my body and I think in the end....if I'm blessed with kids I will be VERY glad I had to go through all this to get there. I think of this illness as a huge blessing....with regards to having children in the future. -

Good point Julie. I dont want the thread to be moved again either...I dont think it would serve the same purpose in gab/chat. I dont wanna be a task master either but at the same time I'm also not feeling like fighting the same fight over again. If others here feel the same way about keeping the thread where it can be of most benefit....please try to... -

I think Andreanna probably travels a bit more than Amy...I still gotta figure that stuff out. If I continue with Amy I would just try to schedule everything in advance....I dont think it would be too difficult. I wouldnt want to wait until I'm there to schedule...I would probably wanna work it out in advance to see if its doable. I'm already a patient so... -

I just wanted to mention that the kidneys are severely effected by heavy metals...especially mercury....which tends to accumluate especially in the kidneys. I think that would be the main connection between ASD's and kidney problems. -

Well...I got kind of lost in the thread....jumping around and not necessarily in any particular order.

Wow...I agree that its pretty wild. I had mentioned your situation to my friend...and actually the first thing she said was "She got pregnant because she removed her fillings and mercury was getting shifted". She said it just like that...very "matter of factly". She made some other comments about that but I couldnt retain everything....stuff... -
