Laura., Interesting. Thanks for posting that. Lyme can mimick alot of things...I would imagine all affected areas would have some type of imflammation.....including the GI tract. I know alot of people dont agree with me on this but this is the exact reason I think the that continued testing is necessary when Celiac results are negative or inconclusive... -

Sheeesh...I didnt know you were in New Jersey. I gotta start paying attention to where people are from. I know Patti is from NJ.....because she is the "Jersey Angel". So yeah...you've got some good Dr.'s around you....I was reading that there are alot of knowledgeable Dr.'s treating Autism over there....I would guess plenty of LLMD's too... -

Holy Cow....Its late...I havent eaten...I'm behind on posts....my face is burning from mercury or toxins or whatever .....and I have NO FOOD. Must go to Whole Foods before they close! I have to catch up on some posts I missed. Miamia....I did not forget you!! You asked about how I'm doing with BioSET. I gotta get to the store but I'll answer... -

Yeah...and I would have been *highly* skeptical of anything alternative 4 years back!! OMG...If reading my own posts...I would have thought I was some kind of "alternative" freak. I would have totally ignored and dismissed everything that I type on this thread. I was thinking about it today after reading Rinne's post about conventional medicine... -

Carla, Thats why I said I believe that antibiotics have their place. Some people do need them to get better...mostly those with a heavy load of the bacteria. I dont think people walking around with a toxic body or a mouthful of amalgams will have much luck with antiobiotics though. Their body is too toxic and too "inviting" for the Lyme, candida... -

Carla, At some point something weakened your immune system enough to let Lyme get the upper hand. It doesnt have to be mercury....although it could have contributed years ago...before you ever even got the amalgams out. I dont think the bacteria actually gets the upper hand the day we start having symptoms....I think it takes place over time. My post... -

Everything happened to me all at once as well....it did not occur over time. I went from perfectly healthy to NOT. I got chemical sensitive almost immediately and then noticed the food intolerance issues later on. I was reacting to foods long before I actually "realized" that I was reacting to foods. It took me awhile to clue into the foods....and to... -

I'm thinking since this ia a Naturopath she would be using a chelator prior to the test...the test would only be useful if given a chelator. Mainstream Dr.'s will only give a standard heavy metal urine test which is totally useless unless....as you said you were acutely poisoned. People who are poisoned from amalgams dont test positive in this type of... -

OMG...I KNEW IT!! My head got invaded with Candida and Lyme only because of the freakin mercury. When I had my ART test Dr. Amy only found residence of Lyme in my head...major fungal issues here as well. A freakin microbe party going on in my head. ...these guys have been partying hard for 4 years now. I know there is only one explanation... -

Donna....I'm totally excited for Saturday. I cant wait to hear everything! Remember to not take anything as far as supplements or meds (unless they are necessary like thyroid) for 48 hours before the test. No antifungals or other supplements at all. Scott should email you the info. and also paperwork to fill out. Just wanted to mention it... -

Hmmm...I got back on the NDF...only taking one tiny drop every OTHER day and holy cow...I'm back to getting up 10 x in the night to pee on the days I'm taking it. This is what happened last time I was on it....frequent urination...even though I'm drinking the same amount of water. WTH??? If you look on any list of mercury poisoning symptoms... -

I think I might have had an OMG moment. One of the weirdest things since I got sick is that sometimes my nails turn totally white and SUPER hard...like indestructable. A couple years ago my mom was telling me this was a good thing...that people want to have strong nails, etc. I know for sure its not a good thing....it happens when things are... -

Yeah...one time they had me stand on one foot, with one arm streched out, while chewing on a Tums, and then they pushed on my arm while at the same time they had me hop up and down on my one leg...and then they said I was allergic to wheat. LOL....nah....just kidding. Anyways....people ask me about this stuff and heck...I dont know how it all... -

He's not OCD....we have a few other baggers who are more along the lines of OCD. They are also more high functioning then he is....they dont need job coaches and are really rigid about following the rules, etc. This boy is the most impaired but his memory is beyond what is normal as far as TV, movies and things like that. Its also possible that... -

Laura, I didnt know you were in Alabama?? I'm not familiar with Alabama but most definately those things you listed would have an impact on the results in the study. This is the arguement for why New Jersey has higher rates then other states....they have alot of awareness in NJ...alot of programs set up in the schools, alot of Dr.'s treating... -

Hey....I just thought of something. When Scott first did ART with me he was not the one touching my body. He had a friend helping him. His friend had no knowledge of how ART worked (he joked about how it was over his head too ). Scott was the one placing objects over my body and testing various things but his friends arm was the one being used... -

Patti...me too. I sort of "get it".....but then again...not really. Its confusing. When you were muscle tested did they use your arm to test you?? Thats pretty much what I had expected but they didnt use my arm for anything. I just lay on my back the entire time. Instead one person (last time it was my new Dr) is testing me.....by either touching... -

I got some interesting scientificness on ART ....for anyone who might still be interested in what this is all about. I was reading on LymeNET. Scott and another member are posting from an Autism conference in Seattle. Some of these kids are getting ART tested and having excellent results with treatment. I read one kid had tested well for some supplement... -

Umm...actually that was me who got flustered and upset with the noise. I dont have problems with loud noise unless its combined with something stressful....then yeah...the noise is upsetting to me and makes my body get all "wired" inside. I dont know if the boy at my work has problems with noise. I've wondered about this but he's never shown... -

I get what you're saying and its true.....thats why I say I believe I'm suffering the same illness as what these kids are dealing with....although I would not refer to it as "Autism". I've had nearly every symptom on that list....some are gone completely....some of them are improved since getting the metals out and getting on an appropriate diet...some... -

Charlie, This is exactly how I became so interested in Autism. From the start it was a part of everything that I've researched....every symptom and every diagnosis that I've had. I believe that I'm dealing with the same type of illness....but being an adult and fully developed I am not susceptible to that much brain impairment. Anna from BioSET...
