Background: 12 years of chronic illness but sick and tired my whole life. Unfortunately stress continues to be one of the main issues that I struggle with and triggers many flare ups. I am a work in progress.

History:

ā˜ ļø Toxicity Duration:
44 years. Looking back Mercury and other heavy metal issues started back in childhood. An extremely shy and sensitive kid that struggled with focus and attention, learning difficulties and lots of unnatural anxiety.

ā˜ ļø Mercury Toxicity Exposure:
4 dental amalgam fillings (now removed)
Double Va((inations - around 22 shots
Mother mouthful of amalgams whilst in utero

ā˜ ļø Other heavy metal contaminants (based on HTMA):
Arsenic
Lead
Cadmium
Aluminium
Nickel
(Copper dysregulation)

🦠Other issues causing poor health:
EBV
CMV
HSV 1&2
Lyme & coinfections
Mycotoxins
Gut dysbiosis

🧬 Some genetic risk factors:
MTHFR C677T (homozygous) affects methylation
PEMT can impede choline production
SOD2 affects anti-oxidant activity
GSTM1 - (deleted) an absence of the enzyme, leading to reduced capacity for hepatic detoxification
MAO-A - encode mitochondrial enzymes which catalyse the oxidative deamination of amines
COMT - involved in breaking down excitatory neurotransmitters and detox reactions
VDR - affects Vitamin D and bone health
IL6 - pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a crucial role in inflammation

🤯 I will work on my traumas and my belief systems. My thoughts create my reality so I am incorporating brain retraining/rewiring in my healing journey.

🧘ā€ā™€ļø I will also focus on my spiritual and energetic body. We are spirits and souls not just the physical body and we cannot neglect this part of healing.

💦 Fasting (5 days) I am forever grateful to Joshua who was on automatic message service to reply to my concerns and queries and support me on my first fast.

Day 1 - EGCG (1 capsule 3 x day)
head pressure intensified, flu like symptoms, low energy, depersonalisation. Had a magnesium bath.

Day 2 - EGCG (4 capsules 3 x day)
Nausea and vomiting, diarrhoea, energy still low. Added Forskolin (1 capsule). Had a magnesium bath.
BP 98/64 P 107

Day 3 - EGCG (4 capsules 3 x day) Forskolin (1 capsule)
Intense pain in back adrenals/kidney area, reproductive area, poor sleep due to back pain. Took dog for walk
BP 110/65 P67

Day 4 - EGCG (4 capsules 3 x day)
Forskolin (1 capsule)
Back pain decreased, pain behind eyes and around eyes increased, better energy went out for walk with dog and kids.
BP 106/61 P91

Day 5 - EGCG (4 capsules 3 x day) Forskolin (1 capsule)
Light headed, low energy, brain fog, head pressure, feeling of unwellness, diahrroea, nausea, weakness, hunger pangs. Attempted caffeine but as a poor caffeine metaboliser and someone who can’t handle the taste of black coffee I couldn’t drink it (I’m a fake Italian according to Joshua 😆) Mental and emotional - depersonalisation, depression and despair, apathy and helplessness started to set in.
BP 108/72 P84

Day 6 - Broke fast due to low energy and weakness. General feeling of unwellness. Breakfast - oat bran cereal with berries, coconut milk and green matcha. Started phase 2 of protocol and added OSR chelator 150mg (AM) & 150mg (PM)
BP 109/75 P81

Craved chicken so had chicken and salad for lunch. Felt better after food and as day went on.
Sleep - couldn’t fall asleep. Have ordered melatonin and waiting for it to arrive

Day 7 - continuing with protocol. Intracranial pressure and bloating increased after one day of food. Pressure behind eyes starting again. Dysbiosis and metals are still a major issue I believe. I will test heavy metals via HTMA and see what progress I have made with chelating consistently over the last 3 months. I will also do a Dutch test to see what my hormones and cortisol are doing.

Craved beans so had black beans, spinach in a tomato based soup.

I was able to do a sauna and went for a walk today.

I will more than likely perform another water fast in the near future and see what benefits I can gain.

Took 1 tsp. of Oleamide to see if it will help with deep restorative sleep.

Day 8 - sleep was still poorly even though I took Oleamide. Energy was better. Was able to take dog out for a walk. Tightness of throat/thyroid and intracranial pressure still present. Pressure behind the eyes and flu like symptoms come and go. Inflammation also present. Hoping for better sleep.

Day 9 - sleep was again disrupted because of one of my kids was sick throughout the night. Not much of an appetite in the morning so skipped breakfast but continued with the supplements. Intracranial pressure, eye pressure, inflammation, neck pain, jaw pain (possibly necrosis of the bone), TMJ pain. Throat/thyroid tightness. Low mental energy. Low mood. Adrenals are still taking a hit. Had an appt with haematologist today. He is sending me off for some viral testing so we will see what comes back.

The pressure and discomfort around and behind the eyes is always such a peculiar symptom and one I experience often. Pretty much 100% of the time when in a crash, but since becoming more severe it happens quite frequently even when I'm not in a crash - any little thing or nothing can trigger it.

chelators like DMSA, EDTA, ALA are useful at getting mercury out but emeramide works way better and even better to take chelators at one portion of the day then much later in the day take a binder like chlorella, or vice versa.

Osha root and fringed sage cured my lyme when i had it, I also had doxycycline.

Gumweed leaf, zinc, and white horehound cured my covid when i had it, a bunch of times and twice i had the cytokine storm.

I have found other solutions to my problems, would love to share them.
