Hi Pgm, sorry I didn't respond to this sooner. Sometimes I forget! Well the guy whom I thought had recommended the NAC, appears to have changed his mind. Check this link out
http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/glutathione-references.htmlCertianly there have been adverse responses to cysteine and NAC and very bad ones in mercury toxicity. I woudln't put all that down to "candida" die off personally, but I don't doubt it's part of it. For those that don't have amalgams and get these symptoms...does not mean mercury is not involved. There have been a few on here with no amaglams who believe they are mercury toxic by other means, it can happen. Though I'm not disputing that there are those whose symptoms are mainly from the candida...however you have to wonder why the candida is overgrown in the first place? what usually causes overgrowth? mercury, antibiotics, viruses?
I'll stick to the vitamin C, E and selenium (and maybe milk thistle) I think. I may get undenatured whey later on, see how I go.
Another thing I am again concerned about is. Appears to be a problem after dental visists, which is why I keep thinking it's mercury vapor. Everytime I exercise, even applying some strength (not all that much), I wind up with chest constriction and pain.
At the moment, I have been struggling since doing a bit of exercise and can barely move my upper body for pain. Breathing hurts, moving hurts. The chest is very tight and painful, a bit like being winded too but not.
The last visit appeared to do the same thing. And I was reading about mercury vapor inhalation and it mentioned tightness in the chest, trouble breathing etc and asthma too I think (which I've also had since)....
Looks like chelation is the only option left if that is the case. It's awful to think that just walking into a dental office is such a high risk for me and those like me.
