Bex, I had my amalgams removed over the summer 1 quadrent every 4 weeks. I started the herbal/cilantro detox from dragonriver about 2 weeks after (September 09) This detox gave me severe headaches and fatigue on the lowest recommended dosage. So I cut that in amount in half. 1 month into the detox i started a mini flare and stopped the detox and the flare stopped.

About a month later I started taking the ALA 30mg unintentionaly. I started the severe flare only 3 weeks into taking ALA. Stopped taking ALA that was about 4 weeks ago. Flare stopped

On the diet front I have done the Candida diet alomost 2 years ago and today I eat almost all organic meat, low carb, no processed foods with the Candida diet as the foundation. Candida is no longer an issue for me.

On the link that Russ gave me a few things that caught my eye was both ALA and Cilantro both dump 90% of the mercury in the intestines. Bad bad for me. Also if you have mercury and aluminium issues things are possible 100X worse. Aluminium and mercury are my two highest metals from my hair analysis.

It appears I did not detox the blood first and did everything wrong. Except the diet.

It looks like I have DMSA, EDTA, DMPS, sauna and sweating are my options. Not sure how I will do any deep chelating but lets start with the blood first and go from there.
