Thanks for the comment and you are right, it is soo easy to get caught up in your illness, it only makes it worse. I'm totally going to check out the book, and I do believe how you think affects your emotions and so on, and you can get yourself into a tailspin. Thank you again :) Jen

Thats so true! I read a book called the journey by brandon bays and she healed her basket ball sized cancerous tumor by coming to terms with emotions. I don't think CFS is purely emotional but I do think stress and emotions are like another layer on top of everything else. I have completely changed my way of thinking even though its been hard and sometimes I still freak out. It has helped me get though things so much better and think clearer. CFS is like a total mind, body, and soul healing process and its so complex. Its comforting to know your getting better doing the same type things as me. ~Kat

Thats so great that you got them out! Your defiantly on the right path to getting better. I haven't herd of DMSA before but I did try some EDTA treatments, I think they were to much for my body to handle at the time. I have been doing a homeopathic detox remedy, eating organic and things like skin brushing etc. My doctor is trying to bring back my body’s homeostasis before he does anything stronger because of the bad reactions to things in the past. That’s great your feeling better though! I think CFS is for the most part curable so many people get better when they detox. ~Kat

Speaking of mercury fillings, if you haven’t read the book whole body dentistry by Mark Breiner you should its really good. I personally feel like heavy metals and toxicities are a huge contributor to CFS. I never had mercury fillings but had a 2 year undiagnosed allergic reaction to the nickel in my orthodontic braces as well as a nickel toxicity when they were in and that is what triggered my CFS. My dentist says my body is not detoxing right any more and now that I have started a detox regiment I have been slowly getting better. Anways just thought I’d tell you about that book because its really informative. ~Kat

I'm so glad it keeps getting better. I talked to my dental hygienist Monday about Mercury fillings. She said I have 2 very small ones. She said that stuff about it leaking into your system isn't true. The mercury is bonded to the silver such that the metal would have to reach over 900 degrees F in order for the mercury to break free. She said, "by then I don't think you'd care about the Mercury". :) She said the American Board of Dentistry doesn't approve of removal of those fillings for the "leaking into your system" purpose, because it would cost the patient so much and wouldn't help them. I think you've said getting your fillings removed helped you. But if you were trying several different treatments or changes at once it could have been something else that made you get better.

No offense, but I don't like to give out my personal email address. Could you post the info about skin brushing and the hair test on the discussion board? I'm sure a lot of people would want to know. Thanks!

Thanks for the info on DMSA. I looked it up online and it might be what I need. And I ordered an infrared personal sauna, so I'm hoping one day this will all come together and get me better. I am better than I was, I've got to keep remembering that and keep the faith. You too. Hey, check out the CFS and creativity group if you're interested. Hugs.

My browser wouldn't open the Bee page but I too have recently gotten really disciplined about what I'm eating, organic no matter what it costs, and trying to get informed about environmental health. I got a blood test done that shows my main issue is toxicity. So I am on a mission to detoxify and clean up my diet, all the things you said. I have been sooo sick, really I thought I was dying a few times and my doctor said that I was truly that sick. There's a book called "detoxify or die" I haven't read it yet. I want to wait until I get a little bit better so I don't stress myself out. I'm just trying to keep going in the right direction and believe I will get there. Good for you for taking such good care of yourself and your babies!
