I'm so happy today, I can't stop smiling. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/horray.gif" alt="" />

In September 2006 I had a pre and post urine test for toxic metals. It was taken 8 months after I got all 7 of my amalgams replaced. The post test means that I took DMSA before collecting the urine to pull the metals out of any tissues. This was the result at that time:
Arcenic pre 38, post 19
Bismuch pre 0, post .6
Cadmium pre 0, post .8
Lead pre 0, post 3.3
Mercury pre 1, post 14
Nickel pre 4.4, post 5.5
Thallium pre .5, post .5
Tin pre 1, post 5
Everything was within the "reference ranges" except the post mercury of 14.

Now here is the exciting news. The toxic urine test results from 2/2008
Arcenic pre 14, post 20
Cadmium pre .4, post .4
mercury pre 1.5, post 2.5
Mercury pre 1.5, post 2.5!!!!
Nickel pre 3.6, post 5.2
Thallium pre .6, post .5
Everything was within the reference ranges. The reference range for mercury is 4. I totally got rid of the Bismuth, Lead, and Tin!!
I'm not sure what Thallium is but this one seemed to be the worst. It is considered elevated when over .8 and mine was .6. I haven't talked to my doctor yet about the results, but I would like to do some FIRS to get the rest of the mercury out as long as I am not pregnant. We plan on starting to try in April.

Just wanted to share my good news!!
