Omg...i Might Be On To Something

[AndreaB]

I haven;t had a reaction that lasted multiple days in a while and it is really wearing me down phsically and emotionally.

I hope you can get some answers and confusion cleared up today.

What about looking into ART. It sounds like it could really help as far as prioritizing what needs to be dealt with first and if pathways are blocked I would think that would impede the process of getting better.

Hi everyone, we are having a minus 23 day with the wind chill and it doesn't matter if it is Fahrenheit or Centigrade that is cold. I'm wishing it was a stay at home day but I have errands to do.

BRRRRR. That's too cold!

I'm glad you've seen improvement this last year and it sounds like that trend will continue with the chiropractor.

[dlp252]

Brrrrr is right!!! We're having a little heat wave here...not hot enough for Rachel, but just about perfect for me, lol.

Well, I'm not having fun today girls/guy. First, got hardly any sleep last night...don't know what was up with that, but I just wasn't sleepy (really tired, just not sleepy). Even after taking 3 melatonin and 2 myocalms.

Claire--I ended up taking the adaptocrine around 5:00--I'm supposed to take it between 2-4...do you think that could keep me awake?

Then, Friday my friend (who I travel with all the time) sent me this great little cruise...very good deal, but unfortunately, even good deals right now isn't in the budget, so I told her no. Yesterday she entices me with a complete package price which is even better than I thought. So TODAY she calls to see if I read the email...I talked with her for an hour trying to think it through, but in the end I said no...I need to pay down the credit cards and can't do that if I keep spending. Truely bummed, lol.

Then, I completely forgot that for our holiday performances we have an extra rehearsal the Saturday before. That means choir rehearses this Saturday morning from 9-12--I just totally didn't think about that. So, I emailed my choir director this morning to tell him I have appointments scheduled. He said he'd let me sing Sunday regardless, but really wants me to try to work it out to attend. I'm not cancelling ART for anything, lol. I may be singing alone when I'm not supposed to on Sunday, but at least I'll know what I need to take care of first with my health, lol.

And heck, if we're doing foods at BioSET, I'm not cancelling that either, lol.

Oops. I wouldn't cancel ART or BioSET either.

Sorry about the cruise. Sounds like your friend has done everything she can to entice you though.

[NoGluGirl]

Dear Andrea,

Yikes! Your poor hubby and kids! Those bees are psycho! I hope they were not in discomfort long. Those things really do hurt! Yellow Jackets and wood bees leave huge holes in you! I was stung by them before. Any idiot that tells you to just stand still and they will not sting you is a complete moron!

Dear Donna,

I wouldn't cancel BioSET or ART either!

Dear Mia,

I hope you feel better soon! I am sorry you have felt so rough. I get that way after reacting to something sometimes. I take up to a week to completely recover at times. You just need to be extra careful what you eat for the next few days. I realized I was reacting to dairy. It makes me as sick as gluten.

Sincerely,

Hi girls

I went to my naturopath today in Fresno, ca. She is having me take a urine mercury test. Would this be a good test to show for mercury. I don't know. She says that she believes with the leaky fillings that are causing my teeth to rot are giving me damage and inflammation in my bladder, colon, and small intestine. She says she is sceptical of it because it all happened at one time instead of over time. I also have been more intolerant to most foods. But my issue right now is chemical sensitivity. I also get that ovary pain on my side before I bowel movement. My right and left lower side puff up sometimes and it feels like a snake in thier. SOmetimes I am so miserable I pray for you know what. I am literally hanging on a string. I wonder what could be going on. If the mercury comes out negative then we will go for candida. She has me on colostrum and raw milk. Hope it doesn't cause a reaction.

Wish me luck girls

I've never seen anything about higher rates of Autism here....I've always seen that New Jersey has the highest rate of all states....1 in 94 births.

Here are some results of recent studies...

I found what was written about the Silicon Valley.

It seems that 1 in 150 is the average for all states in the country. A few states have a lower rate such as Alabama (1 in 303) and then a few states are higher...with New Jersey having the highest rate (1 out of 60 boys...1 out of 94 kids).

Back in 2005 I guess they were saying that CA has higher amounts of environmental mercury thus more cases of Autism.....or that we have different genes here??

I dont think the Silicon Valley "gene" theory holds any water.

I think its environmental. Most states are increasing at the nearly the same rate....but there may be some clue about what triggers Autism somewhere in New Jersey.

I've read different possibilities...

that New Jersey has more toxic sites

New Jersey has one of the highest rates of Lyme Disease

People are just more aware of Autism in New Jersey

These states hsve the highest prevelance of Lyme.

Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.

New Jersey and Maryland were both included in the 14 state study for Autism....it would be interesting to see figures for ALL states....and if Autism has a higher prevelance in the same states which have higher prevelance of Lyme.

NJ doesn't actually have the highest rate of autism, just the highest from that 14 state study... I want to say that Oregon and Massachusetts were 2 of the states right at the top from a 2003 compilation of data using data from the Fighting Autism website...

This amuses me, after having lived in AL for two years:

"A few states have a lower rate such as Alabama (1 in 303)"

I'd be willing to bet it has much more to do with a lack of diagnosis, because of the lack of insurance, lack of medical attention, rampant poverty, (need I go on)?

I don't buy that statistic.

this is all speculative of course, but I don't think the reason the rates are lower in certain states like Alabama is solely due to awareness and a lack of diagnosis...

a couple months ago when that 14 state study came out, I was doing a lot of research into vaccines and looking at some autism data from different states... there was a pretty strong statistical correlation between the incidences of autism in states and the percentage of children receiving vaccinations... the bottom 4 or 5 states in % of children receiving vaccinations (the mandatory ones like DPT, MMR, etc.) nearly matched up perfectly as the bottom 4 or 5 states for rates of autism... there was also a pretty strong correlation from top to bottom with some outliers... if I had more time on my hands, I might actually attempt some sort of statistical analysis on the data but that's certainly not going to happen anytime soon... either way, it was interesting although it doesn't necessarily imply causality from vaccinations to autism as there are other variables which could be playing a part and have the same tendencies to occur in certain states...

as for Alabama specifically (which actually fell in the middle of the pack for vaccinations if I remember right), I think one of the reasons why rates have been reported as being lower in certain states like Alabama and other more rural states, is that I think there's just generally less exposure to substances that could be potentially damaging to a body and its internal system... most of these rural states do have lower %s of vaccinated children, probably partially because I would think more children are home-schooled and therefore not mandated to receive the vaccinations at least prior to entering school... there's also probably less environmental exposure to toxins... and I'm inclined to think the average diet of a child in the more rural states would be less likely to be filled with as much of the junk (artificial colors, aspartame, MSG, etc.) as the diets of kids in urban areas...

[Rachel--24]

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 for this. It has to be because this is my weakest area.

They always say the pathogens will thrive in the places where you are most vulnerable and I cant believe that Lyme would only be hanging out in my head unless its because this is the one area which my immune system cant get to it.....because this is my weak spot.

I feel like my head is definately the weakest area in my body....it has to be...this is where the fillings were and this is where all the action was when I was experiencing the galvanic reaction. This is where 99% of my symptoms are.

If microbes love mercury this would be the place for them to hang out for sure.

I know this for sure...ever since Dr. Amy said the pathogens are showing up mainly in my head...and Lyme is only showing up in my head...I knew it was only because of mercury that I'm dealing with these guys at all right now. Otherwise...I would not be affected.

This totally confirms what I already very strongly believe about my own situation and about Lyme and Candida in general. I read this today on Lyme NET....

Post#1

Discussed at recent Dr. K. seminar:

Microbial involvement is compartment specific: those areas contaminated with mercury are most immune compromised (absent immune surveillance in these areas) and become ideal breeding places for invading microbes. Compartmentalized Herpes viruses are known to be responsible for seizure foci in the brain, especially in ASD children.

Trying to eliminate the opportunistic microbes before reaching a resonable degree of toxin elimination in the involved area is not possible.

Antibiotic, nutrient and herbal uptake in a toxin contaminated area is only minimal and will ultimately not succeed.

Most important long-term strategy: decontaminate the most crucial areas in the Central Nervous System before attempting major antimicrobial strategy.

There is no cure without eliminating the different forms of mercury from most body compartments

Post#2

I think the key message here was:

There is no cure without eliminating the different forms of mercury from most body compartments

This means that treating Lyme alone without dealing with mercury likely results in limited progress and lowers the chances of a full recovery.

Post#3

Absolutely, Scott. The only people that I have met over the years who have regained their health completely are the ones who addressed ALL neurotoxins. Once the metals start finding their way out, especially mercury, the rest are easier to eliminate.

Post#4

My energenic tester is seeing the same thing with me and his other lyme clients. we started addressing the metal issues 2 months ago with me and now are seeing a further decline in the infections but there was also a surge in them when the metals and yeast started to release what were bound to them.

What I am experiencing now...even on one drop of NDF...is a surge....most likely caused by yeast. Its noticeable...it affects my behaviour and the pain in my head increases quite a bit when trying to chelate....I stayed home from work yesterday.

I feel a ton of pressure in my gums...only in the areas where my amalgams once were...and especially where my gold crowns sat for one full year.

This is also the area where the galvanic reaction took place. I get symptoms here when I eat sulfur foods...so I would have to say with 100% certainty that I've got mercury stored here....also yeast and other "not so friendly" microbes.

I would have to agree with what they are saying 100%. Alot of posters on the Lyme board tend to dismiss this stuff....but then again alot of the posters over there are on antibiotics for years and years and still fighting the battle.

Although I do believe that Lyme is stealthy....I think that mercury gives this bacteria alot of that power. I do not think the battle against Lyme has to be one that lasts for years and years on antibiotics. A body free of mercury will fight Lyme effectively.

When I look at my own situation it absolutely rings true. I've had no problems with Lyme (or candida for that matter) prior to mercury exposure. The fact that Lyme is only finding a home in my weakest area.....the area which likely has the largest amount of mercury accumulation....proves to me that the only way to get rid of the bacteria and the yeast....is to get rid of the mercury.

It cant work any other way for me.

I have alot of respect for these posters and appreciate that they can share their experience with others. Especially on LymeNET....where antibiotics RULE....and alternative methods are largely ridiculed.

I do believe that antibiototics have their place....they can work.....but not in a toxic body. If you rid the body of the toxins which are holding the bacteria in place (giving it a very secure place to thrive) you can then effectively fight the bacteria.

I dont think I would get anywhere going after Lyme this early in the game. If I did...I would most certainly be facing a huge challenge. An endless game of herxing and going round and round with this bacteria.

In my particular case I think if things are done in the correct order...Lyme will prove not to be such a challenge after all. The biggest challenge for me is getting there...getting to the point where all I have to focus on is Lyme.

What we have to remember is that these pathogens are opportunistic.....they somehow found an opportunity....a weakness within our bodies...and we need to make that area strong again so that they can no longer thrive.

[Clark Bent as Stupor-Man]

She is having me take a urine mercury test. Would this be a good test to show for mercury.

a urine mercury test would only be a good test if there was an acute case of poisoning or I suppose if the chronic exposure was high enough and consistent enough (though I'm not sure this would really be possible to go on in a person's body for a significant duration of time without causing ridiculously negative effects as well)...

either way, I don't see this test as being a practical test in your case... unless she's giving you a chelator prior to the test (or is it during the test?) for a certain period of time during a day... I could be wrong though and I'm sure someone else will be be better at answering your question...

the tests that I'm aware of that may be more beneficial are the hair test using the counting rules or the chelator challenge... there's one other test I heard about recently from a doctor that involves checking for the presence of certain things in the bloodstream that would be present due to mercury toxicity but I can't recall the specifics of the test... and then I think there's also the different diagnostic forms of kinesiology but I'm not very familiar with these testing methods..

[Rachel--24]

either way, I don't see this test as being a practical test in your case... unless she's giving you a chelator prior to the test (or is it during the test?) for a certain period of time during a day... I could be wrong though and I'm sure someone else will be be better at answering your question...

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 testing.

Lisa,

You need to make sure that there is a chelator given before the test and also you need to be aware that too high a dose of a chelator can be harmful if you are very mercury toxic.

The purpose of the chelator is to pull mercury from your tissue so that it can be excreted in urine....and so that they can then measure your level of toxicity. Anyone with amalgams will be excreting mercury with this test. Its basically a matter of how much mercury you are excreting.

If you have a heavy burden of mercury (and chemical sensitivities is indicative of this) the chelator may pull out more than your organs can handle at one time. Ask the Dr. about this....make sure he/she has experience and knows what they are doing with regards to this test. Find out what chelator they plan on using.

Always research and ask questions before taking anyones word for anything. Find out about the test and make sure its right for you.

My doctor has not given me this test yet due to my obvious level of toxicity. He does not think I can handle the test yet but plans on testing me later.

Others here have had it done without problems. The chelator is sulfur-based......if you feel that foods high in sulfur give you bad reactions discuss this with the Dr. before going through with the test.

[Rachel--24]

She says she is sceptical of it because it all happened at one time instead of over time. I also have been more intolerant to most foods. But my issue right now is chemical sensitivity.

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 how extensive the problem really was.

I think with mercury you just reach a point where your body simply cant cope anymore. This is most likely when Candida takes over.

Candida binds with mercury and some Dr.'s believe that the immune system allows Candida to take over in order to deal with the mercury. The candida (by binding with mercury) allows for the cells to breathe...rather than be suffocated by mercury. Candida also keeps the mercury in one place...instead of moving around the body further damaging organs and tissue.

Essentially...Candida may be somewhat of a "defense mechanism"..the immune system's way of coping with the mercury. People with mercury toxicity always get candida.

[CarlaB]

I can agree that mercury has to be treated with Lyme, but I don't agree that Lyme cannot wreak havoc without mercury present. In my mercury testing, it came out borderline. A borderline mercury reading cannot explain how ill I've become.

Also, I ate fish too close to the mercury test ... I forgot about it, but already had started the test when I remembered ... if I hadn't eaten that, I'm sure the mercury level would be in range. I'm sure it's high because I used to eat a lot of fish until recently.

Lyme is tricky to treat and so many things can complicate treatment. It all varies from person-to-person.

Antibiotics may not be right for everyone ... definately not for people who have mercury and candida to address ... but I'm getting some normal days now, which is a nice change. I haven't had a normal day in years. So, they seem to be working for me. I'm not very reliable, however. I'll be fine one minute, then totally dizzy and need help walking or totally fatigued the next.

Dr. H has been treating Lyme for 20 years, so even though it's all experimental, I think he's learned a lot in that time. He does have an herbal protocol, but again, it doesn't work when someone's bacterial load is too high. He won't use it on me till I'm doing better. He also won't treat the heavy metals, lead in my case, till I'm doing better.

He has me on even more supplements/antioxidants/probiotics than meds. So, for me it's a combination treatment.

Each person is different and needs to be handled individually.

We're in Southern Georgia, heading to Atlanta tomorrow. I'll try to check in then.

[Rachel--24]

NJ doesn't actually have the highest rate of autism, just the highest from that 14 state study... I want to say that Oregon and Massachusetts were 2 of the states right at the top from a 2003 compilation of data using data from the Fighting Autism website...

I'm pretty certain that NJ is the state with the highest rate in any of the studies they've done...

Its the highest rate ever documented...

One in every 94 children in New Jersey has autism -- the highest rate ever documented in the United States. For boys, the rate is one in every 60.

New Jersey's rate, based on 2002 data, should "be understood as a public health crisis,"

[CarlaB]

Others here have had it done without problems. The chelator is sulfur-based......if you feel that foods high in sulfur give you bad reactions discuss this with the Dr. before going through with the test.

I had the test done with chelators and no problems.

I also had the hair analysis. The hair analysis showed aluminum, but the urine test did not. The hair analysis showed mercury, which was borderline in the urine test. The hair analysis did not show any lead, but the urine test did. I do not trust the hair analysis because it can show metals that you are detoxing through the hair rather than ones your body is storing.

[CarlaB]

but then again alot of the posters over there are on antibiotics for years and years and still fighting the battle.

I was just talking with Adam about this the other day. My doc has me on three antibiotics to kill the Lyme in it's three forms. Lyme bacteria can readily change from form to form, so if you take one antibiotic, it can hide by changing to a different form.

It seems logical to me that you would have to go after all three forms at once. Fortunately, I'm not having a toxicity problem, so I'm able to do that. It just seems like it would take longer if you didn't try to get it in all three forms.

Apparently, my doc is the only one, besides Dr. B who retired in Dec. to do research, who will treat in this manner.

It's also important to treat coinfections first. Lyme is small enough compared to babesia that it can live in the babs. So, I'm also being treated for babs.

It's kind of funny that I'm taking all this conventional medicine because I was always the one who used all kinds of alternatives. I think all of my family has been healthier because of it, but I've always thought conventional medicine has it's place -- which is bacterial infection (strep, etc.) or necessary surgery, etc.

[NoGluGirl]

Dear Lisa,

I am sure you at least have Candida. It irritates your entire system. It makes you sensitive to chemicals, food, and everything else. I have it. The misery it causes is unbelievable. I am so fatigued all the time, and all kinds of things are wrong. Of course, I may have Lyme, Babesia, Mercury Poisoning (I eat a lot of tuna, but no amalgams except 1 root canal that was a composite filling). I need two more. My teeth did not begin going bad until the past few years or so. I never had cavities as a kid. Celiac probably caused this. I lost my gallbladder because of it too!

As far as the mercury goes, I would say the same thing as Rachel and Charlie. Unless you are taking a chelator, the urine test will show nothing. You need to do a hair analysis. It can tell you more.

It is more accurate, and it can tell you how long it has been in your system that way.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

[Rachel--24]

I can agree that mercury has to be treated with Lyme, but I don't agree that Lyme cannot wreak havoc without mercury present. In my mercury testing, it came out borderline. A borderline mercury reading cannot explain how ill I've become.

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 was for anyone who's still got amalgams or hasnt addressed mercury at all.....I think what Dr. Klinghardt says about mercury creating a breeding place for the pathogens does carry some weight. I think it needs to be considered when treating Lyme.

It is tricky and it does vary from person to person but I dont think mercury is OK for some people with Lyme.

I think its going to make killing the bacteria harder for anyone...its going to make certain areas of the body weaker and more capable of becoming "homes" for the bacteria. Its going to make things harder for the immune system when mercury is present alonside these infections.

I think thats the point they are trying to make. "Dont think you can ignore mercury and fully recover with just Lyme treatment". Thats the message I got from reading those posts. Not that mercury is the only thing that gets in the way of getting better....but just that it cannot be overlooked.

[Rachel--24]

Antibiotics may not be right for everyone ... definately not for people who have mercury and candida to address ... but I'm getting some normal days now, which is a nice change. I haven't had a normal day in years. So, they seem to be working for me. I'm not very reliable, however. I'll be fine one minute, then totally dizzy and need help walking or totally fatigued the next.

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, co-infections, etc.

My body is way too toxic for antibiotics.

You dont have chemical sensitivities or even alot of food intolerance....heck you're doing fine eating out of a "shared" toaster!!

So yeah...in your case you are not nearly as toxic from heavy metals and have lived a pretty clean lifestyle for alot of years. That clearly gives you an advantage.

[Rachel--24]

It's kind of funny that I'm taking all this conventional medicine because I was always the one who used all kinds of alternatives.

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 only "covering up" the problem so that it can get worse down the road.

Yeah...I totally agree and I have NO use for conventional Dr.'s....I really dont. Well...if I broke a bone I would go to a conventional Dr....but NEVER for chronic illness!!

I would never again let a conventional Dr. touch this illness that I have right now. They caused ALOT more harm than good and yeah....their answer was to nuke my thyroid....and I was dumb enough to LET them!

[Rachel--24]

Dear Rachel,

OMG! That sounds like me! I hate when there is food but not what I am craving. I hope I do not suffer for all of those Tostitos I ate! It is not fair everytime I eat I have to pray to God that it does not hurt me while the rest of the human race eats everything and does fine. That just plain sucks.

Meanwhile, it is time for another episode of THE FOOD LUST FILES!

Today's Food Lust Item:

Pizza! I miss cheese, and pepperoni! I miss the taste so much! I miss how the cheese stretches as you bit into it! Oh the beauty! The delicate taste of sausage mixed with the spicy sauce with a hint of basil. And oh that buttery garlic dipping sauce! Now that is love ladies and gentlemen!

I'm pretty certain that NJ is the state with the highest rate in any of the studies they've done...

Its the highest rate ever documented...

I didn't actually know it was the highest rate ever documented for a state... just knew it was the highest rate of the 14 states in the recent study released... but I'm curious how high it would rank compared to the other 49 states had the study encompassed the whole country... any data I've seen which references all 50 states hasn't had NJ quite that high... certainly on the higher end, just not top 3 or even top 5... come to think of it though, I might have only seen one set of data so I'm hardly an expert ...

but I'm sure being in NJ has made it easier for me to find alternative doctors... NJ ranks right up there in most of these diseases like autism, lyme, etc... a number of times, I'll randomly be reading something and find out it's written by someone in my state, often close to where I live...

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??

I would love to figure out the mystery of Autism....obviously thats not gonna happen....but I sure hope *someone* figures it out....and soon.

[miamia]

Interesting, I think that as we begin to find our own paths to wellness and begin to heal our bodies make it clear to us what works and what doesn't, I'm glad to know your body is letting you know what works. IMO conventional medicine just works at suppressing symptoms and only results in bigger problems further along.

Soooooo, you racheled the cheese.

I'm so glad he has you.

I am finding the effect the network chiroprator is having on me is subtle but is making a difference. The interesting thing was his description of my personality based on the condition of my spine, he was accurate. He says it will take three to six months but he can help.

I feel like I am getting better slowly, my digestion is greatly improved, my bowels are regular, I eat a wider range of foods, I've gained five pounds, I've crawled out of the funk I was in and I am busy with spring projects.

Rinne

its great to hear you are feeling a bit better!!! Do you feel like the chiropractor is having an effect on the digestion and bowels?

Grrr, lol, I forgot my lunch at home. All I have here is tuna and I don't think I can last all day without eating, so tuna is it. I HAVE been considering going home early. The D is bad again today, so I might just go home early. I have a dental appointment today (finally for cleaning, lol), but I'd really just like to be home on my couch, lol.

Sounds like your friend has done everything she can to entice you though.

Oh indeed she did, lol.
