Thanks - yes I am on thyroid meds. The holisitic doc I saw who diagnosed me gave me them. My thyroid isn't horrible but it was a little off. It's an organic supplement so it's not that bad. It never seemed to do too much but my thyroid is not .57. I'm doing this totally solo - no docs. The last one screwed me up for awhile with his inproper chelation. I mobilized a lot of mercury after 5 DMPS IVS and using oral DMSA. I thought I was going to jump out of a window. I guess the hardest part as I was telling my mom last night is that . . . people don't understand this. I mean you can't just tell someone - "I have mercury poisoning". People don't know what this is - it's not well understood YET but the more people who get it the more it will be. I try to educate people too so that my suffering isn't in vein. I just keep praying that some day . . . all of my mercury issues will correct themselves - I know it will take chelation but I just look forward to this time next year when I will be on the other side . . . the healthy side . . .the feel good every day side . . the not thinking of mercury side . . . the get on with my life side. Time and patience.
