I have to agree. I did those things and made myself so severely sick and sick every single day. Horrible and I don't believe it did much to eliminate mercury, rather it moved it all over the place and forced my body to try and do something with it (obviously it coud'nt do much). It also caused alot of agony for only a small amount of metal excretion at the end of it, which I don't know was worth the pain but I was willing to because I was desperate to get better.
It was similar to repoisoning due to so much redistribution of the metals. I was a screaming mess and this was the same with just about any other protocol, until I used Andy Cutler's and for the first I realised that this protocol had been tried and tested/studied and that the other stuff was almost dangerous (at least to me it was).

Some people do no matter what they take, they do really well and that's great. But for many of us? Mercola type protocols are disastrous and possibly dangerous. I cannot even take a DMSA pill in isolation, I HAVE to take it every 4 hours as andy suggests to lessen the side effects more.

I admire him for actually studying and thinking all this through and using it on himself first and understanding the way mercury works and moves.
