Test results back from doctor

[footballguy]

Ok went to doctor. We r still in process of testing for lime disease. I have an unknown parasite and high amount of mercury in my body. The doc put me on a detox program with pill and gave me clondine to help the tics. Will this counteract the detox? Any tips about getting rid of mercury?

Do you have a lot of mercury fillings in your teeth?

[Chemar]

we used chlorella supplement as primary chelating agent and then once the tests showed most mopped up we followed with alpha lipoic acid. (ala crosses the blood brain barrier so has to be used only once systemic mercury is mopped up else it will bind and carry it into brain) also increased intake of cilantro.

 

my son had intensive acupuncture, reflexology and resonance biofeedback therapy during this treatment to ensure detox

No no fillings. I think it may be because my mom is an artist and we have like 60 paintings up in our house and she uses oil paint so im thinking that could be why. I heard chlorella just mixes it up but doesnt remove it and could make it worst. I think i remember reading that somewhere not sure thoe. How long did the detox take. How were his tics after the fact?

What detox program did your doctor start you on? Sometimes with detox programs tics can get worse. I did chelation therapy to detox my body of mercury and I would have certain tics which seemed more like stimming show up after I stoped the chelation product until I restarted it. I think it may be hard to tell what's doing what when starting the clonidine and detox program at the same time. Clonidine can make you very tired at first and detox can make you tired also. Did your doctor start you out on a very low dosage of Clonidine with the plan of increasing if needed? When I started Clonidine we had to start out with a very low dosage because it would totally knock me out.

0.1 mg 2 times a day. And I dunno I just have extremly high levels and need to get it out. Also had an unknown parasite and a couple food allergies. Im on DHRA a mineral supplement and another detox bottle that is like all natural amino acids and like selenium and vit e I believe. Also my mom does a lot of oil paints and has like 60 peices up in our house of all oil paintings she has painted like huge paintings. COuld this be the cause of my mercury? Also will cannabis consumption effect the results?

The most Clonidine I ever took was .1 mg tablets at 3/4 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet at bedtime. This was after it was built up and not until I was about 13-14 yrs. old. We started with 1/4 of a tablet. If you haven't started the Clonidine yet and do wish to start it, I would suggest breaking the tablets into fourths. In my opinion it's much better to start out small and increase if needed.

 

I don't know if the oil paints contain mercury. You may want to check the ingredients. If you do have a current source that you are getting the mercury from, it would be better to get rid of that source before you detox.

I researched and couldnt really find anything but i'm sure it couldnt be healthy and I had to get it some how. So do you think if I eleminate mercury from body my tics will go away?

detoxing from mercury can sure go a long way to alleviating tics.

if it is the primary cause for your tics then they would likely get much better once it is out of your system.

If some other root cause for the tics then you may see much relief but not complete remission without also tackling the other issues. If you have TS then it gets more complex than just detoxing

[Guest]

I think that question depends on the individual. For me it didn't make my tics go away. My tics were already mild from the other treatments I had been doing such as allergy shots, acupuncture, Chinese cupping, and supplements. Since I was two years old I had what I would consider an undiagnosed sensory processing disorder. I was extremely hypersensitive to foods. My fruits and vegetables were very limited (2 fruits & 2-3 vegetables that I would eat). I gagged very easily on new foods. The chelation therapy helped majorly with this issue, and now I have a large variety of fruits and vegetables I can eat without gagging. So for me this is what the mercury detox helped with and not the tics so much.

Huh ok. Well thanks for all the info guys. We went to the doctor at stanford we live like 15 minutes away but finally got an appointment. He was the first doctor of many to actually think its tourettes. Maybe he is right but I hope not. As far as the food allergies go im alergic to dairy but I also had a lot minor allergies level 1 like wheat, grain, oat, eggs, tons of fruits and veggies soy should I try to avoid these? The doc said that dairy were my only major food senstivities?

Yes so cheese and milk were rated a 2 and all the others were rated 1. He said to avoid dairy but should I also avoid the small stuff? Getting rid of all these bad foods can they help tics?

[Guest]

If you were to avoid all of your sensitivities, would you have plenty of other foods to eat in order to get all the nutrients you need? If you have other foods to eat I would personally try to avoid all of them for a while. I notice the largest difference when I avoid everything I'm allergic to. You can always add one food at a time back in after avoiding them to see if they cause problems.

footballguy: .1mg twice a day is a big first dose! Im on .05 mg once a day. I weight 160-170 for reference.

 

What are your tic symptoms? i forgot.

 

Everyone: where can i learn more about mercury detox? Also, i got my flu shot yesterday but it was a mercury free variety

[myrose]

footballguy,

Can I ask if eye blinking is your only tic? and if you have been diagnosed with anything?

 

I only ask because after I found out my daughter is high in heavy netals I have been reading alot about it and it seems the number one metal toxicity is mercury. I believe I have read along the way about it causing eye blinking. There was another mentioned to cause eye blinking as well but I didn't book mark it. I will try and find it later and pass it on.
