Re: Chelation--Johnny V & Boronia
Hi, thanks for your message! I'm glad you're getting the right support from your doc and that you're getting better! What is the programme you and your doc decided upon?
Unfortunately there are very few doctors around who really understand mercury toxicity which is why most people have to go alone. Having said that, we're not completely alone.....Andy Cutler provides some support in the adult chelation group and the Autism/Mercury groups on yahoo. He knows more about mercury toxicity than most if not all doctors anyway. Plus there are others who are experienced in chelating themselves or their kids.
Johnny and I (I'm sure Johnny will reply to you also) understand that you do need to be very careful with the doses and support adrenals, liver, thyroid and take extra minerals, EFAs, antioxidants etc. I'm also familiar with naturopathic techniques that support detox. I think I can speak for both of us in saying that neither of us would consider taking any sort of psychiatric drug. Of course we're still both really nervous about it as you may have read as it's going into the unknown!
Good health to you too!
Anne
