what you have sounds like CFS. All the CFS people have bacteria and viruses because their immune system is depressed.

bacteria etc. do not supress your immune system but will be present if your immunity is low......

the severly poisoned people who don't detox themselves can get worse and worse..even when there is no exposure...

your immune system never worked right... so why do you believe suddenly mercury wasn't suppressing it anymore and a virus was doing it instead? Doesn't make any sense to me?

what happened is that you probably backfired from chelation cause you chelated with hidden amalgams in your mouth... then you got an infection that your mercury supressed immune system could not fight.

and it became chronic... and you got worse from it...

The fact that you cannot even tolerate ALA means that you must be extremely toxic.... Only the sickest cannot do it...
