Hey guys,
I will be traveling in Thailand for a month, so I need to get a Hepatitis A shot before I go...and my assumption is that it will contain thimerosal (mercury) in it. I'm not happy about this, but my doctor said that they will all have it, plus I do not have the time to research and try to find a doctor whose shots are thimerosal-free (I've got a deadline).
So I will find out when I go if it contains thimerosal or not, but either way, I kind of feel like I have to get it. If it does contain it, do you guys have any suggestions for how to minimize the damage it does to me? I'm pretty nervous about this. I'm pretty sure I am mercury toxic, and know I have lead toxicity, so the thought of thimerosal scares me to no end. I also have my wedding coming up in about 10 days, and I just don't want to get sick from this shot.
I assume Algin would be helpful, and I still have that on hand. I will also eat this cilantro pesto that I make. Any other recommendations?
Thanks a lot!!
~Tia

Don't do it....if can't find the time to find a doctor that does thimersol-free vaccines, do you really have time and the money to deal with the highly potential mess afterwards?

Step by step, that's how you achieve success.

I agree with these answers. How many babies have I heard that were developing normally and healthy, had vaccinations and ended up coincidentally "autistic" with devastated parents. Interestingly enough that many get startling results with chelation.....
Also, I heard about a 17 year old guy who was getting flu shots every year. He was healthy and strong and just decided to get them anyway. Well, I do not know how many times he got away with it, but one year after the flu shot he became pretty much an invalid and has remained so. His Mother was asking people on forums for help because she believed it was the mercury and he displayed all signs of mercury poisoning, so she was hoping someone could help her with the right advice and that maybe she could do something for him.
This was a guy that had been previously healthy and popular and energetic. From a few flu shots, he's now a mess and the last one was obviously the final straw that broke the camel's back. Now he's pretty much full blown mercury toxic.
I have also heard of this happening to others where I live, that they had the flu shot and remained sick and poisoned from then on. Others "fine". One lady got the flu shot and was such a mess from it that she did not seem to recover. I'm not talking about a temporary flu that some get after it, I mean so ill that she lost so much weight and became so pale, she looked like a walking corpse.
So for some people vaccinations have been an absolute nightmare. One friend I have has an autistic child, yet was not "born" that way but coincidentally became that way. I mentioned the mercury connection possibility but she got annoyed and didn't want to know, so some people do get very annoyed when you try and mentioin this or help. Because it doesn't seem that it could really be true OR they feel so angry and guilty that the vaccinations could have done this that they cannot even allow that to even enter their minds.

Thanks for all the replies and advice guys! I typically wouldn't even think of getting a shot with thimerosal, but this is a unique situation. It's not that I'm not taking the time to find a doctor who has thimerosal-free....it's just that there simply is no time. I just found out that I am supposed to get the shot, and they need you to get it 2 weeks before the trip if it's going to work. I am under the 2 week mark as it is, and my wedding is coming up in 10 days.
Don't worry, I already know the dangers of mercury, and I already got my amalgams removed. I'm scared to death of thimerosal, and when I was required to get a hep b shot for school, I fought it tooth and nail until they waived the requirement for me. I just felt like I was in a bind, and although my holistic practitioner advised against all the other shots they advise (there are some ridiculous ones on the list, like rabies!), he thought that hep a would be a good one to get. This doctor wasn't trying to sell me on it, because he is vehemently against most all immunizations. He didn't exactly advise this one, but said that it might be a good idea, and he wouldn't advise against it like he did for the others. In fact, he laughed at the ridiculousness of the other shot recommendations, because they are so unnecessary.
i called the place, and they checked the ingredients and claim that thimerosal is NOT in their shots. When I arrive, I am going to insist on seeing the ingredients myself, because I honestly don't trust them. If it contains it, I think I will probably go without. Eating packaged food is not a possibility for me to do the entire trip, but I would probably rather take my chances with getting hep A and getting sick as a dog (it's temproary, and is described kind of like a stomach bug that really knocks you flat), rather than increase my mercury toxicity.
Thanks again for the replies.

Hi Tia, What happens if you don't take the shot? Will you still be allowed to travel to Thailand? When you ask yourdoc about whether Thimerasol is in the Hep A shot, I'd insist on reading the label for yourself. I've heard stories of people who have requested Thimerasol-free vaccines and when they insisted on seeing the labels (even though their docs were adamant about them being Thimerasol-free), lo and behold . . . they had mercury in them. Here's a link to a website that has alternative names for mercury -- including Thimerasol. It might be useful to know all the different names that companies use for mercury. http://www.dienviro.com/index1.aspx?BD=17882Hugs, SomedaySoon (Sharon)

I wouldnt get a shot, not in a million years, health is much more important, you'l be taking quite a few steps back. I had loads of shots when i went to North africa, i was 18 at the time, not long after i was diagnosed with hashi's, and had a heart murmer.

Hi Tia, Sounds like a difficult situation. First, I would find out if you *really* have to have the shot. People—including doctors—are notorious for saying that you *have* to do something when you really don't. They just don't want to deal with something different. Second, Dr. Tenpenny suggests lots of Citrus Bioflavonoids (Vitamin C) and Vitamin E with Selenium (if I remember correctly; it's been a while since I've watched her video.). I also believe Algin would help. I believe most of the hepatitis shots contain aluminum as well. You can deal with this using a malic acid supplement like Fibralgia (Fibro-Malic). I would take the recommended dose until the bottle was empty (1 capsule with a meal 3 times per day). I believe the Hep A also contains phenoxyethanol (anti-freeze additive). Other names for this chemical are: 2-Phenoxy-1-ethanol Phenoxyethanol Ethylene glycol monophenyl ether Phenoxytolarosol Dowanol EP / EPH Emery 6705 Rose ether 1-Hydroxy-2-phenoxyethane β-hydroxyethyl phenyl ether Phenyl cellosolve Here is a link to an MSDS: Safety data for 2-phenoxyethanolThis part is especially reassuring: Toxicology"Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through the skin. May cause reproductive defects. Severe eye and skin irritant."This also looks encouraging: 2-Phenoxyethanol: a neurotoxicant?Study Text: http://www.whale.to/a/2pe1.htmlhttp://www.whale.to/a/2pe2.htmlDon't mean to discourage you. This kind of vaccine nonsense just makes me, well, sick. Some of the vaccines that contain 2-phenoxyethanol are: - Havrix® Hepatitis A Vaccine, Inactivated SmithKline Beecham Biologicals
- PEDIARIX™ GlaxoSmithKline
- DAPTACEL Manufactured by: Aventis Pasteur
- IPOL Poliovirus Vaccine Inactivated Manufactured by: Aventis Pasteur
- INFANRIX ® HepB Combined Diphtheria-Tetanus-acellular Pertussis (DTPa) and Hepatitis B Vaccine SmithKline Beecham Biologicals
- TETRAVAC® Suspension for i.m. (intramuscular?) Injection - Used only in Germany.
Solutions: Well, after about 40 minutes of searching, I cannot find a solution for this one. Hope this helps.

ARE YOU CRAZY???? IT CAN TAKE YEARS TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE FROM MERCURY POISONING. I WOULD SAY HEP A IS MUCH LESS DANGEROUS THAN MERCURY POISONING. MOST PEOPLE HAVE NO CHOICE WHEN THEY BECOME HG TOXIC: YOU HAVE. DONT DO IT.

Hi weird toes, I'm glad you posted what you did because when someone toxic like us is between a rock and a hard place, it's good to post and get people's opinions and you should be able to do that without getting hammered over it.
I think when someone has been injured by vaccinations and feel strongly enough, I see they let rip sometimes though and often it comes across as blunt and not always overly pleasant, but you know they are angry that they got so ill themselves and no doubt wish someone had warned them strongly enough before they had this happen.
It is a really hard decision for you to make. Even if it has no mercury, the aluminium maybe a concern too. Look, I wonder do you think you can risk just going over there without vaccinating? Perhaps take something like grapefruit seed extract which is potent against bacteria, viruses etc??? Ok it doesn't taste overly palatable, but it can kill almost anything. That is a thought.
But again, you may feel safer taking the vaccination and that is your right. But yes for us metal toxic folk, all metals are a concern and we do not tend to excrete them properly. Ok for hte stronger, but not ok for us. But who wants Hepatitis either? Can you get in touch with a naturopath or homeopath and ask if they have a natural aid to help you or even act as a preventative????
