So glad to have found this forum. Finally finding the answers! Newbie intro. Post menopausal woman, 55 years, suffering from 35 years debilitating headaches, weekly, almost daily. Now understand the reason as heavy metal and bromide poisoning. Problems originated from Amalgam fillings (now all removed 15 years ago safely) and vaccinations (smallpox,cholera, monovalent typhoid vaccines 1977 and 1981), from travel to India 2 x lots in my early 20s – that’s when the headaches started, but only put this together recently!!! Plus mould exposure, usual halogens, mother used to cook with aluminium cookware, copper pipes etc.
Other symptoms: Brain fog, bloated stomach, chronically tight shoulders and neck, systemic candida, gurgling in throat/ esophagus, sore vagina (no discharge), dry skin, small white spots on arms and legs (lack of pigment), warty fungus small things over skin, brain fog, depression, anxiety. Although post menopausal, experienced FBD and still have hard patches in each breast that hurts when I hug someone well.
Seems I have been searching for answers and trying numerous alternative approaches over these years. I have tried so hard and suffered so much!! Of course I gave up on the medical route a long time ago!! I come to this forum having completed numerous health regimes for example, Water Fasts 40 days and 21 days (didn’t know about importance of enemas and nearly died!), numerous cleansing programs, was vegetarian for 15 years, raw food vegan for 2.5 years, now GAPS/ nourishing traditions type diet last 1.5 years (no grain other than my brown rice crackers which I have with halvati cheese – yum!) Love this diet, feel the best on it, and will stick to it. For this last year I have completed 16 Liver Flushes with large ‘crops’ of stones each time, still haven’t got to the end and will continue till I do. I have been doing them every 3 – 5 weeks. I am also still doing daily coffee enemas.
Experience with Iodine so far: Been experimenting last couple months with Iodine and co sups but have only got full supply of co supps last 2 weeks, plus Multi B, Lithium Orotate, MSM and Borax (Thanks Gina I am taking a self filled capsule each night and going well!). I am up to 20 drops of Lugols Iodine taken 10 drops 2 x day with breakfast and lunch. So far going great. Feel I can handle this amount because of all the detoxing I have been doing this last year. Really feel the co supps have helped a lot and still doing daily coffee enemas to keep up with the detoxing. Only had 1 bad headache day during this time. I must say that I have stopped all pain medication for the last year also and relying only on coffee enemas for headache relief. Took massive amounts of paracetamol and ibuprofen for many years before that and have probably been detoxing from that too!! Have needed to do daily coffee enemas because during this last year have had almost daily headaches. Have done anti candida herbs/treatments over last year also, did 1 year without fruit but have recently added fruit back and going great with that. I actually feel better with fruit.
Excited to be starting to feel better already. More energy, clear headed and more positive mood. I understand I will eventually hit the bromide detox wall, but know I am on the right track. Just want to be well once and for all!!!
I want to thank you iodine pioneers big time, special thanks and hugs to Ginagirl and Wombat who I have learnt from the most due to similar conditions. I love your generous, nurturing ways. Know that you are really helping people big time out there with everything that you are sharing!!
