Bex those are some crazy symptoms. A swollen tongue must have been frightening. Not to scare you, but my sister had a swollen tongue 2 days prior to a seizure. YIKES!
The first month when I saw the hair loss was the worst. The funny thing is that, the spot was so tiny. No one could even see it. Now that it's gotten larger, I have actually come to terms with it.
It is very interesting how our bodies react differently. I think this is the reason why amalgam/chronic mercury poisoning is overlooked or even mocked. The same symptoms aren't seen in everyone affected by it. While others have neurological problems, someone else might have physical, autoimmune or endocrine problems.
There are a lot of autoimmune related conditions in my family. Lupus, psoriasis, asthma, pernicious anemia, vitiligo. It's really bad when I think about it! Doesn't surprise me that's how mercury decided to affect me because my family's immune system is shot apparently. It doesn't know what to do.
Sean this statement of yours made me laugh out loud.
my God what we have to do just to even maintain nowadays.
You know I feel the same way. LOL I look at all the bottles of pills cluttering my kitchen counter, cabinets and refrigerator and get annoyed by it sometimes.
You mentioned Dr. Wong. Is this the same Dr. Wong who promotes Vitalzym? I took that stuff a few years ago and it really worked. I had crazy detoxing symptoms from it far worse than what I'm getting from the DMSA. The kidney pain from Vitalzym was getting to point of being unbearable, so I stopped. However, when I was taking it, I could see a white powder in my urine. It must have been the fibrin from a cyst.
Oh I thought I'd add, that my husband says my hair is looking better. There is more growth since the last picture.
