Welcome Dizzyrascal. I like that name!
I second everything Mike and Bex have said. They know what they are talking about and that is all quality sound advice.
My 50 cents………………
1) Ignore any mercury advice the naturopath gave you. The advice to take DMSA for 2 months without getting the amalgams out is seriously wrong and could seriously hurt you. It may NOT hurt you……….. but it may make all your symptoms much much worse for a long long time. Not worth the risk to my mind. Do not detox mercury with anything with any amalgams still in your mouth.
2) Buy ' amalgam illness" by andy cutler – seriously this will save your from trouble, you can self diagnose and you will know you are not alone and that it what you have is curable. FYG - All your symptoms ring great big mercury alarm bells.
3) Buy “its all in your head” by Hal Huggins – this will tell you why and how you have been poisoned
4) Diet is real important. Really really important. Seriously.
5) Whatever you do, under no circumstances are you to get amalgam removed without a safe protocol….thats minimum rubber dam and oxygen. I don’t care how little money you have, amalgam removal without proper protection will screw you up. That is a guarantee. Many people massively regret just going to a regular dentist and having them out unsafely. I am one of them. I had one out of 8 taken out without protection and all my symptoms when crazy and i don’t want anyone to go through what I had to go through…….better to leave them in, get them out when you can afford it. It took me 9 months to get mine removed safely after I screwed up that first time. All the in-between time was recovery time. As I said don’t do what I did because it hurts
http://www.livingnetwork.co.za/healingnetwork/mercury_amalgam_removal.htmlDon’t rush in to anything. Education is key. Ask lot sof questions.You can’t rely on any doctor or NP, you must rely on yourself and reading those books will enable you to do just that.
Good luck and congratulations on figuring out you are mercury toxic. Not many people do, nor ever will.
