Hi Jim. Yes it could be mercury doing this. It can affect any area of the body and brain. The control centers and everything. So you can get mixed signals or delayed ones and of course, when you need to get the signal to urinate and it comes too late and by that time you're about busting, then wham you get caught short.

I've not had exactly what you've had, but I've had similar problems there with urgency and having to run for it. I luckily have very good control and hold it in, otherwise I know it would come out. Or I go and think I'm done and suddenly I want to go again or I don't feel I have emptied my bladder, but instead of being able to urinate properly, I only get some trickles and I have to sit there for ages and I feel like I need to pee properly and hardly a thing will come out.

So yep, I've had the weirdo urinary tract symptoms too. Yours is particulary distressing and obviously you're being affected profoundly in that very area. Whether it's the mercury and whether it's in that particular area, or it's in an area of the brain that controls those impulses, it's hard to say.

You might still want to go to a doctor and let them know about what you're expeirencing. Id' say it's more common than we realise. It might well be mercury, but in case it's something else, good idea to get things checked. And if mercury is at the bottom of it, a doctor might still be able to give you help in the meantime.

That's not right you need to suffer like that. Not your fault. Something somewhere is buggering up the signals you should be getting to get ready to go toilet. It's like you get NO signal and then when you're bladder is about to burst, THEN yo have to run for it and hope you get there in time and most often you can't. Or you think you're done and you still have more in there and out it comes once you're standing up.

I would see a doctor, but also start to take care of the amalgam toxicity. Probably by starting with things like selenium, vitamin E, Vitamin C, zinc, magnesium and perhaps algin (which is suppose to help with mercury symptoms by absorbing it in the gut and probably elsewhere too).

Other than this, you won't be able to chelate properly until you have gotten ALL your amalgams out. Once you've done that, you should be able to embark on proper detox. Safest I've heard is a protocol which is being used by more and more people. It's on a forum called frequent dose chelation.

Hope that helps a little. And I hope the "problem" starts clearing up soon.
