Test results back from doctor

[footballguy]

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.

Well I would say neck jerking and then eye ticking are my two major tics.

[footballguy]

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

I have had tics increasing the last two years of my life from 18-20. Noticed little things like sniffling and stuff when i was young that would last a week and then disapeer for periods of a time. 18 is when they became chronic. Have gotten worse over time. Mostly neck dropping and moving left to right and eye blinking. Occasional vocal tics like clearing throat or coughing but nothing big.

 

Question in all my doctor appointments they asked me if I had any OCD tendacies and I always say no. I have noticed one I have been doing my whole life and it is the sign of the cross. I do it at random times and always have to do it in this wierd order like 4 times then do a cross on my forehead and then sign one more time but hit each spot twice on the last one. Its really wierd not that I think about it. But besides that nothing else OCD could anyone explain this?

[footballguy]

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?

Just wanted to update with all the stuff I told u before I am taking I am now taking paxil for the tics. Cholestyram pow from the doc and on my own i take chollerella every once awhile, same with grapefruit extract. Also trying to drink green tea everyday and taking a multi and a lot of other vitamins like zinc, mag, b, ect. Also fish from Nordicks and milk thistle. Im also trying to get on some primirose oil very soon and maybe some letchin. I just started DMEA also 50 mg a day will prolly kick it up soon thoe

[footballguy]

Ok well since you guys know what i'm taking right now for my mercury detox I was wondering if it would be to much if I bought this package? here's a link its a detox package that includes clay baths which are supposed to be really good for removing mercury.

I dont want to over do it but would it be to add this regime or atleast the clay baths while taking the DMSA and stuff? Thank u in advanced

I am now taking paxil for the tics.

 

sorry I am kinda puzzled by this? Paxil is an SSRI used to elevate serotonin. Where it might have a calming effect on OCD and help lift depression, and that may indirectly relieve tics, yet paxil isnt an rx med for tics

 

are you still taking clonidine as well?

 

please do remember that should you stop taking either of these, ESPECIALLY the paxil, you *must* titrate down in dose as stopping "cold turkey" can result in serious withdrawal symptoms

 

I dont know anything about clay baths for detox. we use Epsom salts

I'm sorry im messing up everything up. I'm taking alinia not Paxil and this is for the parasites. Now im taking DMSA 250 MG 3 times a day for 3 days in a row then 11 off and then repeat. Like I mentioned earliar im still taking the mineral complex and the paraguard that the doctor gave me. I'm also taking all m own stuff for the mercury or just my health like a multi, low dosage of nordicks fish oil and low of primirose. I take zinc, b complex, mag, stuff like that. Oregano and milk thistle is all I can think of right now but started taking aloe vera drink from whole foods and am going to try to drink a Kombucha drink every day. Now for the clondine I am off but I did forget to mention i'm taking a cholestyram which is a cholestorl medication but my doc gave it to me cuz it clears toxins. Everyone should look at it I read a postive review the other day

 

check it out hopes this helps someone

I have mercury and parasites too. Also wondering about this thread.

footballguy,

if I am understanding correctly that you are doing DMSA to get rid of mercury? you are being guided on this by your doctor or naturopath, correct? I don't think you should add any home detoxing unless you run it by the doctor, because it may be too mucy pulling of metals at one time and that could be no good. I think there is a certain pace that this is to be done. DMSA is not a slow gentle natural detox if I am correct. Again, consult the doctor if you are considering anything else like the clay since you say you are also using chlorella. It may just be too much at one time.

Ok thanks ill run it by him cuz I dont want to do it too fast. Is there anything bad about doing it to fast besides low energy? Also i'm taking steam baths to help this is not bad is it since its just removing some mercury through sweat? Sorry for all my dumb questions I just want to be right.

[Guest]

A lot of problems can occur if you go too fast. One of the doctor's who I started doing DMPS with had me going way too fast, and I got sick all the time. It was the same with the clay baths. The key is to go nice and slow. Your dose of DMSA seems awfully high. I often see people using one chelation agent at a time. Once they stop seeing improvement they might try another chelation agent to see if they can get any more positives. What results have you seen so far?

Haven't have any yet. I'm supposed to take another test 8 weeks from the start of the program to see if I made any improvment. I'm a big guy at 200 and the only side effects would be a tiredness sometimes and I got sick for like 2 days but thats all stuff I can handle. WHat did u notice more effective the clay baths or DMSA? Did u also take any steam baths or saunas?

[Guest]

footballguy,

 

I didn't notice the clay baths to be very effective at all. I did DMSA for a little while at the end, but most of the time I used transdermal DMPS. The transdermal DMPS was the most effective for me. I didn't do any steam baths or saunas. I wanted to use an infrared sauna because I've heard that they are the best for detoxing, but I never had any luck in finding one around here in a fitness center.

interesting. Why didn't u want to just go to a normal sauna or steam? Well I think in less then 2 weeks I should be retested and doc said most of his clients return back to normal levels on first cycle my motor tics have gotten really we'll but my vocal has increased dramatically. Any tips?

[Guest]

I didn't want to use a normal sauna or steam because as I researched I constantly read that those are unsafe for detoxing. Sorry I don't have any tips. If the tics are too bad I would suggest slowing down the detox.
