Nicola I can really relate to what your saying. I have been ill for 16mths, (bedridden in the beginning) yes i feel like i have a bad hangover and fluey lots of the time. Somedays i dont know how i carry on, im just existing and trying hard to get better so i can have a life again. Its doubly hard with children, i have 2. They can look after themselves to a degree but they still miss the way i was. its great we can all share experiences eh!
When i start DMSA it will be 6mg, every 4 hrs.
I too felt better with amalgam still in, even my periods were normal then, but im really glad the mercury is out, at least we have some kind of chance to be healthy again.
