Post Amalgam Removal Month 5 - 10


If people could step into my memories and feel the differences to my sight, hearing, taste, smell and energy they would have no doubt about just how poisonous mercury fillings really are.

Its been a long time since I have updated my blog this is because I have been out living my life. Last few months have had theirs ups and downs but it was in December (8 month mark) that I noticed a big improvement, which was strange as I was going through a very stressful period as my husband had got a job in the USA and we were packing up the UK in preparation for moving.

I am starting to notice a monthly detox cycle:
Week 1 start to feel rough (PMS week)
Week 2 feel very bad, have so sick want to die feeling (period week). Although after December I just feel a little rough no more death feelings.
Week 3 Get a real feeling of vitality, seems like my blood cells work better but still feel dreadful, again after Dec just feel little rough.
Week 4 feel amazing.

My bowel movements have continued to be very variable between constipation and good movements.  I believe I entered the fabled dump phase in September. This is when your blood is clear and your body begins to clear out your organs and tissues.

I started to run 5 miles in September. The first time I did this my hips hurt so bad, the second time my shoulder hurt so much but I think it's really stimulating my lymphatic system. I feel like my joints are beginning to go back into the correct places. My joints are really cracking now. All of them crack, fingers, toes but it feels like there is more space in the joints. I can move my fingers a lot faster, hopefully I can get back to playing the guitar soon. I sometimes get the brain pulling feeling too, like something is pulling at my brain, its like pressure too.

In September started taking all activated B vitamins. The first time I took them I felt sudden relaxation and had the most wonderful 1.5 hr nap. I have now quit folic acid. I am wondering if there is a another gene defect, besides the one that stops B12 conversion, which means I need the activated ones. I did take a B complex before of non activated ones i.e. my body had to convert them and didn't notice this same effect. Since taking the activated ones my concentration has really improved and I am remembering so much more. Visual Snow has improved when I started Lithium oratate which is supposed to help transport B12 into the CNS (central nervous system). I plan to get a 23andme test to get my raw genetic data, I can then use that to work out SNPs and gene defects.

I also switched to tincture form of milk thistle and also started Dandelion root tincture. I did get some small black stones excreted afterwards which are said to be stones from the gall bladder. 

I have also swapped onto barley grass powder from tablets, the main reason is I am getting so fed up with swallowing all these tablets!!!!!!!!!! I have been having a nightly cocktail of barley grass, vitamin C, tinctures of Dandelion and Milk thistle. In November I added in Oil of Oregano which is reportedly good for killing candida. Most mercury toxic people also have Candida infections (it is a bacteria that lives in balance in your gut but when you develop gut dis-symbiosis, as mercury causes, it is opportunistic and takes over and develops into fungus and spreads within your body).

I also started taking Maca which is an adaptogenice herb that's supposed to give you energy and boost libido. Not sure if I am taking enough can't say I feel that different. Lots of people swear by it so will continue.

In late December I started taking bigger doses of zeolite as I was trying to use it up before move in February i think this is what really helped. Have continued on 1 scoop per night rather than 1/2 scoop.
I was also brave enough to weigh myself. I have lost 20lbs since amalgam removal!! Very happy with this I have not been trying to lose weight although I needed to lose a bit and it has just come off with no real effort. I think its because my liver can work more effectively at breaking down fat and my body needs less fat deposits to store toxins in.
Vision has become clearer although still have visual snow, but objects are sharper.
Running took a dive because I caught the flu cough that was going round, but was managing 5 miles in 50 mins, but I bounced back from the virus really quick, before that would have floored me for at least 3 months.

I was doing very well until January 2014, this was an extremely stressful month. My husband moved and I was left in the UK to finish organizing, finishing up my job, meeting up and saying goodbye to friends and then flying me and the cats to the US in Feb. I was also running my supplements down as it was hard to fit all my stuff in the suitcase so I was not on my detox protocol. When I arrived in the US it took a while for my address to change so couldn't order supplements off internet for a couple of weeks. I think also because of all the stress suddenly stopping my adrenals crashed and I fell off my herbs and not got back onto them. So I have been very tired, vision has been blurry but I knew this would happen so I planned to take it easy and gradually I am feeling more normal again. At least this time I understand why its happened and know I can get back on track, improvement coincided with my new tub of zeolite arriving.

Now I am negotiating my way round American food, calcium chloride, lots of chemicals I can't pronounce and high fructose corn syrup seems to be in everything! Since having amalgams out taste is getting cleaner and some foods taste thick and dirty to me, especially cheap alcohol, I have no real desire to drink anymore, but good quality wine still tastes nice, but I can quite happily turn down the cheap stuff. This is great for my husband as I am happy to drive while he can have a beer.
I have found an organic farm co-op that delivers vegetable  PHEW! Still working out how to get quality meat. I am also being exposed to Fluoridated water so will have to investigate water filters for my house now. But I won't have to worry about vitamin D deficiency as I am living in the sunshine state.
The BIG achievement is remembering my mobile phone number with only one look at the number, OH YES my brain is still there somewhere!!!

I have bought an Omega J8006 juicer. Its my first proper juicer. There are 2 types of juicers centrifugal (provide fiber) and masticating (highly digestible nutrition, but downside is no fiber). I decided I want nutrition at this moment, but in future I might also invest in centrifugal. I have initially done apple, carrot, celery which was so delicious, very happy with my purchase, you have to cut up the items quite small but apart from that great machine, nice and easy to clean. So I can start experimenting with juices and mixing powdered herbs in now.

Apple, Red Cabbage, Beetroot tops & roots, Celery, YUM
