Since this thread I have had another two periods. One in October and another today. I had real bad pains last night and was in agony. I thought I had eaten something, but then a period came on. It's the heaviest I've had so far and looks like the lining is being shed (the clots) which hasn't happened properly for about 4-5 years for me. 4 periods in 6 months compared to 1 in 2 years before suggests to me that I am right that mercury is the cause of my health problems. I have had small improvements in other areas aswell. Mental symptoms, though, are taking longer to improve.

I found this week that cutting out most gluten intake has helped significantly. I'm going to continue with this diet now and see it if does. It seems to have helped more than cutting out dairy and any other diet. I have also cut out tinned food. I still have a little dairy i.e. milk in a chocolate, but that's all.
