Tracy, I don't think your wasting your time at all, just that your feeling very run down and vunerable cos you are feeling so ill. Do not give up I'm sure you will start turning the corner soon regarding your health. When things are at there worst there is only one way they can go after that and that is to usually improve.
Have any of your symptoms improved at all? Are you detoxing naturally, or what are you using? How long is it now since you had your fillings removed?
Theres an article in the Daily Mail today about toxins in our body - not mercury though, its more to do with household chemicals like fire retardents etc. Three people had blood tests including a 14 year old girl they were shocked with what was in their system. They all had blood tests to discover the toxins they had in them - interesting if nothing else.
Anyway, I went off topic there, please do not despair some days I was so obsessed with this mercury thing that my head felt like it was going to burst thinking about it. I have read zillions of things about this saying do this do that and sometimes think stuff this I don't care if the mercury is in or out I just want to feel better.
Sending you lots of Best Wishes lizbet <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Family history of mental illness doesn't mean that your amalgams are not responsible for this.
if there is a history of mental illness in your family it could mean that your brain is more vulnerable to toxins than in other people. Your family probably does not tolerate heavy metals very well. The medical establishment has told us the lie that our genes are responsible for our illness. Our genes never cause disease, they can tell us only if we are more vulnerable to certain things than other people. Some people don't tolerate our high sugar diet and get diabetes, others don't tolerate heavy metals and get depressed.
You are doing the right thing. Chelation and amalgam removal is the best thing you can do for your body and your mind.

Hang in there Tracy, I agree with both lizbet and the anonymous poster as well. I think as lizbet said, you are simply at a very vulnerable point in your life right now due to the illness caused by the mercury poisoning. I think that the best thing you can do right now is to ignore the naysayers, and continue to focus on your healing instead.
I'm sorry to hear that your closest sister treated you that way. It's always very painful when the ones you love the most are not there for you in your greatest times of need--and it's even worse when they turn on you. The ironic thing is, she probably thought she was doing the right thing--but that is because she does not understand the ramifications of this disease, and what it really does to people. Hopefully she will come to understand what mercury poisoning is all about someday, and will maybe even apologize for the terrible hurt and emotional pain that she has caused you over this.
Tracy, I have read many of your posts, and you are definitely NOT someone that I would consider mentally ill or insane. You are a very rational and logical person that is just going through an extremely difficult time in life right now. Don't give up, and don't let the negative things that others say drag you down.
A big hug from across the pond. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Jason as I have said to many people on this forum its only people like you who have kept me alive, literally. My life two years ago was full of fun and I was a really sociable, bubbly person. My life was filled with a job I loved and much socializing and many parties. Now I live a very lonley and isolated life, which is very hard to accept. I am lucky in the respect I have my 3 lovely children, but two at 22 and 18 really live their own lives. I also have a one year old grandaughter and it is sad that I havnt been well enough to spend much time with her. Im really glad that my 18 year lod son still lives at home because he is a very sesitive boy and has helped me a lot. He has had major health issues himself as he started having unexplained seizures a year ago. This has already cost him two jobs as they cant deal with it as no medication controls it. I spent half of last year by his bedside while he was in hospital and he had a heart attack. So he comforts me a great deal. In fact I have ordered a heavy metals test for him as he has had health issues from a baby. My children have always been my world and we have had so much fun together before this illness struck. Thats why it hurt so much when my sister did what she did, she wouldnt even talk to me about the situation, took my daughter and refused to let me see her. Obviously eventually a solicitor made her return her. But my daughter is only 12 and it caused her so much trauma. She is fine now and very understanding and very kind to me. But I will never be able to find it in my heart to forgive my sister for what she did. Its really sad because I use to love being around people but now my dream is to get well and move away somewhere near to the sea and surround myself with animals which I adore. I guess I've lost a lot of trust and faith. Sorry to waffle on, but sometimes need to get things off my chest. Anyway on alighter note my guinea pig is ready to give birth any day now and I cant wait. She had 2 babies 7 weeks ago, but her naughty partner impregnated her again the next day without us knowing. He has now been neutered, much to his dismay! I was awake in the middle of the night when she gave birth last time it was awesome. In the last few years I have collected four guinea pigs, four cats, two fish and a homeless dog. Sucker or what! Hugs to you too Tracy

Tracy, just a thought regarding your son, have you thought about taking him for reiki healing?
The lady who I get reiki from told me that her son had I think - major depression and if I remember rightly took some kind of fit or something, she has managed through her reiki to help him tremendously. I also know someone else who goes to her that lost part of their arm in a accident this person was in a lot of pain and on a lot of medication and he has managed to half his medication through him getting reiki treatment. I also wonder if it might be good for you, I went a few years ago, before this mercury thing, for stress among other things and I couldn't believe how calming it was, I felt like I had had a couple of tranqulisers that afternoon ( I hadn't by the way!!) but thats what it felt like cos I felt so calm. My husband was wayyyyy sceptical about this but eventually I persuaded him to go for his back, and despite himself his back pain cleared up too. The funny thing is about reiki is that you can't explain how it works, or at least I can't but it does seem to do something, the lady that I go to said that doctors and the medical profession were very sceptical about this years ago, but are now thinking of introducing it into some hospitals, that would be good eh. Might be worth you giving it a try if you have not done so already, certainly couldn't make you worse.
By the way I am looking right out at the sea just now and it is blowing a gale the waves are very very fierce its really cold here today.
Hope you get your dream of living by the sea one day!!

My Gosh Amy-- You're mother isnt really right on this. Bipolar condition and other mental illnesses often DO run in families but if what your mother said was the case-- then there would be no hope for each and every person with any kind of mental illness. Genetics play a part- but they are not an END ALL. It just means you must pay more attention nutritionally to that genetic weakness in you.
What is often the case-- mercury and heavy metals, pesticides, solvents, flouride, etc. in one's body can tip someone over the edge and encourage that inherited weakness. Just as in the case of Autism.
Take away the straw that broke the camel's back and things heal again.
Did you know that essential oils such as Flax seed oil and Oil of Evening Primrose have shown very effective in dealing with Bipolar disorder?
PMS mood swings and bipolar run in my family-- My aunt has to take medication for Bi-polar. Every Menstruation time for her made her like another person.
I had the same problems-- especially during the time I had metal fillings. Getting my metal fillings out really helped-- but I also started taking Flax Seed oil and fish oils daily- and during PMS week, I will also take Oil of Evening Primrose.
I also found several herbs I can take around the time of my period that have leveled the brain chemicals/hormones-- Now I am not kidding you when I say that for this entire Spring/ Summer and Fall now that I dont go through depression or paranoia,etc. any longer.
My aunt won't take any of these supplements because she is tired of taking any more pills, capsules , etc.-- period.
she even purchases bags of MSG to put all over her food to keep it fresh-- MSG is the worst thing a person can put in their body. My aunt also smokes as well.
If she started cleansing her body of toxins-- intestinal, colon, gallbladder cleanse, etc.. -- and with the help of a nutritionist, took natural supplements and oils that could work for her--- avoiding what won't work for her, she may even find that she could be weaned off of most of her medication.

Tracy, I'm not sure if this will help but has your son been on Phenytoin (brand name Dilantin in the US). It's a very old drug that is used to control seizures. Since the patent expired on it a long time ago the drug companies have no interest in promoting it's use. I have been taking Phenytoin since last Friday. My alternative medicine doctor recommended it and I must say that it does seem to be helpful but it is too soon to say for certain. To the best of my knowledge what I have is a seizure disorder caused by a traumatic brain injury and chronic mercury poisoning. In addition to following the Cutler protocol I am looking for an anticonvulsant that will help me. Thanks Jason as I have said to many people on this forum its only people like you who have kept me alive, literally. My life two years ago was full of fun and I was a really sociable, bubbly person.

Tracy, Magnesium has been a life saver for me. Without it I was depressed, angry , just a bit crazy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> My daughter also becomes Dr. Jykle/Mr. Hyde like without it.
I feel your pain about your family, but try not to let it get to you. My husband was convinced (and of course most all the drs I went to thought so) that it was all in my head and that I could "just decide to feel good and be happy" and that my mental state was causing my physical problems. It took a long time and much research to convince him that I was right. My mental state was being affected by my physical.
Things are sooo much better now. Take lots of magnesium and keep hanging in there!

Hi Tracy,
Hang in there, it will get better for you. Your story sounds so much like mine in that two years ago I was also happy, successful, vibrant and it all changed so quickly, my family also said its in our genes, the depression , bi-polar, etc but ive now come to believe that the only thing genetic is bad teeth as all of the family members who suffer have mouths full of mercury, and bad teeth are the ONLY common denominator.
I finaly feel like im getting my life back, my business is running well again, the horrifying depression and evil thoughts that plagued me are fading fast and my future has never looked brighter. A few months ago I wanted them to lock me up and throw away the key, or even better just die.
Please keep your chin up, there is hope ... I promise you will make it through, heck, if I could, anyone can.
Take care and God bless <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Tracy has the guinea pig had it's babies yet? Please keep us informed. Actually to be quite honest I wish I could swap my dog for your guinea pig. I was woken up at 4.00 am this morning to the sound of chewing. I lept out of bed to be confronted by the sight of my 1 yr old puppy chewing amourously upon my 2 week old shoes. Mmmm not happy.

Oh yes, it was VERY frustrating. I bawled my eyes out when I went to my 8th doctor and he told me that "someone with as many symptoms as you just needs to see all the specailist and then you just have to consider psychosematic"(sorry, I have real problems with spelling, will this get better without the hg <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />) I was so tired of being treated that way by family, friends and doctors, but I think this last one really made me realize that I was own my own in finding out what was wrong with me and made me more determined to prove everyone wrong.
Now even as I am much better, if I ever say something about "when I was so sick" and someone ask me what I had it is still frustrating because when I say that I have mercury poisoning, they always seem (or maybe it is just me) to question that. I get things like, "really, how did you get that" and when I tell them about the amalgams many of them say "well I have amalgams". I do feel if I had said that I have cancer, MS, diabetes, etc.something that everyone is familiar with, that they would feel more sympathy and understanding. I guess that is partly why I try to mention it as much as possible now. I feel that if we all make it know that it is a very real thing and the more people start hearing about it and become familiar with it , then they will start to believe.
In the meantime, do all that you can to help yourself and stay away from things and even people who make you feel bad.

Hi Tracy,
my family also said its in our genes, the depression , bi-polar, etc but ive now come to believe that the only thing genetic is bad teeth as all of the family members who suffer have mouths full of mercury, and bad teeth are the ONLY common denominator. I used to think that mental illness ran in our family, there is so much addictive behaviour, but now I know too that the hg is the common denominator. We need to smoke, drink or use drugs to feel better, we need a fix cause of the hg...so sad, I wonder how many more families are being destroyed by alcoholism or drug problems and it could all be coming from their teeth. Powerful statement, but so very possible.... Sandi xoxo

I do believe that within families, individuals may respond the same to mercury. On a superficial level, it would seem like I got OCD because my mother has similar problems, but I do believe that we both have the problems because we respond the same genetically to mercury. Because we have same genes, mercury was the trigger. Until I had amalgams, I did not have OCD. Until my mother started getting fillings in her late twenties, she had no mental problems. I do believe mercury has made us both ill. She doesn't acknowledge it, but I do believe fillings have caused so much of our suffering. Since 10 years old I have suffered so much. Sometimes I have wished I was never born because it was so awful to have severe mental illness at such a young age, but if I hadn't of stuck through it, I wouldn't have found out that I have mercury poisoning and something can be done about it. I live a pretty lonely existence too. It's easy to say it's "fixable" by going out and socialising, but that's not easy to do when you get panic attacks and so forth.
