I agree. Looking back at when my symptoms started, I was already very sick with metals before I even reached 30. I have 12 Amalgam fillings and lead-contaminated tap water to thank for that.

Yes, I strongly agree.
I hear that mercury affects neutrophil counts. On Wikipedia's neutrophil page there is a video clip of a neutrophil having some candida for lunch! : )
We need to take good care of those little guys.
You can learn more about mercury and heavy metals from the Cutler Protocol group in curezone or in yahoo's Frequent Dose Chelation or Autism-Mercury groups.

correct.

heavy metals are/can be omnipresent at all ages.

this is the first place you want to look with severe endocrine problems (or about 200 other problems)

check out dr buttar's videos where he doggedly went after mercury with his son. three tests yielded false negatives, but dr buttar is one smart sob and the fourth one turned positive.

his son is now effectively cured of autism and has testified before congress.

viva la new paradigm.

i would have to have a detailed history. start from the very beginning and list all the symptoms in a proper sequential timeline, list everything you have tried, what worked and what didn't, and then then we can take a first step. The whole thing is trial and error, but i know most of the pitfalls and therapies and can save you potentially years of chasing your tail to no end. can't promise a cure but i can almost promise very significant improvement, stability and then maybe a cure in the future.

just recently straightened out a person with aplastic anemia, he had seen tons of doctors and alternative people to no avail. in three weeks he was able to stop all the blood transfusions and he was only doing maybe 30 percent of what i had recommended.

there are certain people on this forum who in my opinion have some good advice, but the problem is that you can't do 30 things at one time guided by 20 different people, you have to do 1 or 2 things at a time in order to make headway, and the nature of this forum is fairly chaotic.

so what i suggest is write a very long and detailed summary of your situation, start from as early in childhood as you can and trace all of your symptoms, medical treatments, vaccinations, surgeries, dental work, possible environmental exposures, alternative treatments, diet, etc etc. try to keep it sequential in terms of a timeline.

i will invest the time into putting together a plan for you. it will have to be iterative after that point, punting on some avenues and pursuing others more aggressively depending on how you respond. i would love to do this on an open forum for other people benefit and to see how fast you make progress but it would get too chaotic, so it would have to be done in PM.

also, start keeping a journal of everything that goes into your body and how you feel.

i am offering this to a few people here who have been spinning in circles for a long while now without making progress.
