It's certainly very possible that your symptoms are caused by mercury. The tricky thing, however, is that nearly all of the symptoms of CMP can be caused by other problems as well. Agreed. I think there is a fine line when it comes to self-diagnosing mercury symptoms. There is very likely a tendancy for one suffering CMP to blame mercury every time they get a headache or an upset stomach or suffer any number of other ailments when, sometimes, these things just happen (even if we're mercury free). On the flip side however... It certainly wouldn't hurt to visit a neurologist in order to rule out other cases, rather than assume that mercury is the cause. ...the trouble with this is actually finding a neutologist who recognises CMP and doesn't think you're a wacko when you suggest that you suffer from it! Yes, I think many people assume that all of their problems are rooted in CMP, when they might have other things going on as well. True enough about neuroligists, but even if he is unfamiliar with CMP, they might still be able to detect other neurological problems. My GP thinks I'm insane and is utterly useless in trying to deal with the mercury issues, but I try and leverage his expertise in other areas to help improve my health. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
