Hi Jinx,

My post was not mean to depress you or anybody. When I say damage, I do not mean totally handicapped. I'll clarify and I should have clarified before.

I detoxed alot of my mercury and felt like a new person, I kid you not. Everything started to get better, but yes it took time. However, though I had improved markedly, I personally feel I was never going to be 100%, because there was always a weakness there and I always had to stick to a relatively good diet, though I was able to loosen up much more and even cheat. There were always a few signs that I was never 100%.

NOw, whether that was from permanent damage, OR from remaining mercury? I cannot be certain, because since I got the virus and the possible cavitations, my body ceased asserting itself with mercury and producing any detox. So I kind of stopped where I was at. See at the time I was improving markedly, I believe I was still detoxing mercury year after year after year. Though I felt pretty darned good, it was still coming out, so just imagine how I would have felt had that continued and not been interrupted with this shoddy virus and other issues?

Infections like this take an enormous toll on immunity and mercury may have been the culprit that set me up for this happening in the first place. Had I not had mercury poisoning, or possible damage from it? I may not have been so suseptible to getting these infections and my body unable to assert itself against them.

There are many things I could try, yes I know. So many and at times I get overwhelmed considering it all but so much just does not work. Trust me, I have tried chelation both with DMSA and ALA and neither have any impact anymore. Either because there is not enough mercury to detox, or my body simply isn't responding.

I think it was Hal Huggins that said that jawbone infections (cavitations) can be worse than mercury toxicity and even Andy Cutler said that if they are present, they can stop a person in their tracks from improving and detoxing hte mercury properly.....so there are all kinds of possibilities. I am amazed I am keeping going to be honest. I think that is just my diet. Outside of that, I'd be a worse mess.

So don't get down Jinx, I'm not talking major damage like you think, but I am talking about possible damage over time from long term poisoning that "might" be enough that the body isn't as strong as it should have been had it never been poisoned, which may have been why this all happened to me.

Again, I cannot be certain guys. I am just speculating from an unprofessional position.
