Yes, I have. I mentioned first to the nurse, who said "What??? You mean by the filliings in your MOUTH?", and she gave me a really odd look. Then he came in and asked me why I think I am being mercury poisoned, and I told him I have severe short term memory problems, unexplained pains all over my body, weight that just won't come off, swollen glands, lines on my fingernails, my mouth is burning...and he just looked at me. He went on his laptop, and typed in all of my symptoms and the little computer spit out that it thought I had thyroid trouble (which I probably do) but what doctors don't understand is everything that we have wrong with us is caused by MERCURY. He felt very satisfied with his diagnosis, and had me go over to the lab to get tested. He said he wanted to test for more "common" things, before he would test for something RARE like mercury poisoning (which is such a WASTE of everyones time and MY money) . He even pricked my finger and took my blood to check for high blood sugar, and it wasn't high. Then he gave me the speech about how life can get hectic, and most of these symptoms can be caused by stress. He would like me to take an anti-depressant. I told him I ALREADY take an anti-depressant. You should have seen the look on his face. So, he said he would give me a different one, one that was stronger and would give me some "get up and go". Fine, I will humor him. I take the anti-depressant home and try it for a few days. Everyday that I took it, about 30 mintues later I started getting drowsy and had to take a nap. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Whatever. That just confirms for me, that there is indeed something "out of the ordinary" wrong, because I don't have reactions to things the way you are "supposed" to.

Then my results came back and it's not my thyroid.
