Peter,
I suffered from mercury poisoning a few years back. I successfully
chelated the metal out by using liquid zeolite (10 drops 3x daily for a
month) along with burbur (an herbal preparation) and chlorella. I felt
better in one week although I did the protocol for one month.

Hi Hanneke,
Thanks for sharing your history and your insights!
My life has been dramatically altered due to severe mercury poisoning as
well. In my case, I was told by a practicioner back in 93' that I was on
my way to developing MS due to the high levels of heavy metals in my body,
most importantly, mercury.
I am very thankful that the direction of my life was altered from that
course through the events and modalities which followed over the last
seventeen years, including replacing amalgam tooth fillings with
alternatives, orthomolecular therapy, herbal approaches, dietary changes,
colonics, fasting, chelation - administered orally, by suppository, and by
IV, and lots of FIR sauna usage. There were some other things which helped
but these, as well as I remember, were responsible for most of my recovery
over the years. I also received two miracles, which I would be happy to
discuss one to one, if anyone is interested.
During the nineties my immune system had become so ravaged by documented
extraodinarily high amounts of mercury that I developed severe food
sensitivites, Candidiasis, lost close to fifty pounds (which I needed) and
suffered from seasonal affective disorder, body tremours, emotional
instability, general anxiety disorder, IBS, CFS, memory problems,
cognitive deficits, tinnitus, depression, continual opportunistic
infections, endocrine and hormonal disruptions and a host of other
complaints. To add insult to injury, Lyme disease was added to the
diagnosis, confirmed through a reputable lab.
As the years have progressed and the efforts to eliminate heavy metals and
other toxins have continued along with continued efforts to mop up all
the unpleasant ancillary effects and pathogens as well as measures to
support areas of weakness, nearly all of the issues I suffered from have
either completely resolved or come close to becoming completely resolved,
with the exceptions of a weakened ability to detoxify and a weakened
immune response, which both seem to persist and require continual (and
expensive) support.
I, as a younger and a less-informed man did not avoid vaccinations like
the plague, as I now do, although I don't blame them or the amalgam
fillings (as much as I hate mercury and vaccinations) as the sole sources
of my past and present troubles. Ode has eloquently pointed out the folly
of that kind of thinking and the reasons for it. (This is not meant as a
criticism to you, Hanneke...please read on).
I have also come to the conclusion, through looking at the lives of my
predecessors and my extended family, although I have no conclusive proof,
that my genetics include a predispostion toward an inability to
effectively eliminate heavy metals and other toxins, possibly due to
methylation problems and phase 2 detoxification insufficiencies. These
inadaquacies and other similar ones related to my makeup may be actually
more responsible for my challenges than the toxins themselves. They may
also be responsible for my son's Asperger's Syndrome (high functioning
form of autism).
This is my background and present understanding...sorry for its length.
Really, what I wanted to do was thank you for your great post, share a
little myself, and seeing some similarities between your experiences and
mine, ask you (and others) what measures you find to be most helpful in
supporting your immune system(s) and detox abilities.
Thanks in advance,
Peter

I can't seem to find my longer email from a few years ago in which I
explained about my diagnosis of MS in 1978/1979, a diagnosis I refused to
accept as being for real. In spite of all the tests done, and
consultations with specialists/neurologists, I just could not for whatever
reason accept that it was MS. I was told I was in denial.
Possible, of course, but it did not stop me from starting my own
research. I read and read, for close to 9 years. My health was
deteriorating whilst continuing my search. In 1988, I somehow got stuck
on notions of mercury poisoning, and possibly causing symptoms similar to
MS. Without much, rather none, support from doctors, I went ahead and
had all my mercury/amalgam fillings removed. A big exercise as such but
well worth it.
My health started to improve, my symptoms disappeared, some slow, some
faster. The biggest almost immediate improvement was my eye sight. Having
been blind in one eye for a while, my eyesight had returned bar colour.
In the first week after the removal of mercury started, the colour in
eyesight returned. This was in 1988.
I was without any MS mimicking symptoms for at least 12 years with good
health. The only issue I see as a permanent result of the mercury
poisoning, is an impaired/compromised immune system.
When working as an ambulance officer, we were required to have the Hep B,
and I didn't think anything of it. Just got them, like everyone else of
the crew. After 3 months we were required to have a blood test, and I
was only one out of 20 who had a test result which indicated that the
vaccines hadn't taken. There was no explanation as to why my results
were so different from the others. It was something like: it's rare but
it happens.
I was offered a 4th vaccine and 'that would fix everything'.
That response made me stop and think, more so because I had been
experiencing MS mimicking symptoms for about 3 months and it all of a
sudden hit me . These recurring symptoms and the vaccines? are they
related? I had learned by then that mercury/thimerosal was added to
vaccines.
I asked if the vaccines contained mercury. The answer was: no. The
nurse was adamant about it. I wasn't interested in a 4th vaccine but got
more curious, to say the least, to learn what was in the vaccines. I
insisted on reading the labels if that was possible.
To cut a long story short: they got what was left of that batch, read
the labels, and yes the vaccines DID contain mercury, and I was NOT
impressed. More so because on top of my file it actually had a
warning/alert: mercury poisoning or something to that effect. Why I
didn't ask before the vaccinated?? I was free of any neurological
problems for so long, it never entered my head to ask about it. Simple,
not smart, but that was simply it.
After this I started some serious chelation programs and I am pleased to
say that once again I have been able to overcome what might have
developed into something far more serious had I not asked questions and
taken action myself. If this is anecdotal, it worked for me. I certainly
was not looking forward to any sorts of tests I had back in the late 70's
and they were wrong then. I can only guess where I would be at had I
left it in the doctors'hands. I do realise that this is not the case for
everyone. I am not into self diagnosing but the wisdom of hindsight
helped me greatly.
This is it in a nutshell, and although I believe your warning Steve is a
very valid one, in my case it was not an assumption that it was the
vaccines, but the mercury in the vaccine!

People are always looking for cause and effect. There is a danger of
being too eager to use anecdotal evidence to assign something as a cause
when there are so many other things that may be to blame The problem
with this kind of thing is that nobody knows if there is a correlation or
not since this is 'merely' anecdotal evidence.
