I think I was poisoned by my husband.. I escaped a few months ago. Looking back, I’ve had a lot of illnesses and would severely sweat or projectile vomit after smoking a cigarette he left for me in an open pack. It’s not showing in my blood. Where can I get my hair tested? For mercury, lead, arsenic, and thallium.

I’m in the St. Louis area. I can’t find anything. There’s a million places to send your hair to when I Google it, but is there a more reputable company?

Hi! So today I accidentally broke the top of the thermometer(not the whole but only top), and i spilled very very small amount of mercury in my room, I immediately started cleaning it with water, and i opened all the windows. I was in my room for like 5 minutes trying to clean it. Can you help me guys is very small amount of mercury bad? Is something going to happen to me?

I am hoping for some help figuring out what toxin I am reacting to in my workplace environment. I work in a healthcare facility, the building is only about 24 years old.

symptoms: severe headaches (debilitating) (I believe high intracranial pressure) visual changes tinnitus itching hands and feet fatigue brain fog

these are my most concerning symptoms. I know theres a whole slew of possibilities, but the reason why I know in my gut that it is a workplace "toxin" is because I have been "away" (on medical leave) for 2 different times now and after about 10 weeks I completely healed. No symptoms at all! returned to work and within 2 hours the extreme head pain began again. I was on the leave because I couldnt work anymore because of the pain.

Also, I have 2 coworkers with similar symptoms and have been dealing with life changing issues from them. and many others with milder versions of the symptoms. I am healthy, almost 30, and I have no other comorbidities.

I am not stressed, this is not a "stress from the job" reaction. this is very severe, almost like an allergic response. I know the best thing to do would be quit and move along, which I plan to do. But I am so passionate about my job and I am so upset to have to give it up.

Does anyone have any idea what toxin could do this? and how should I get tested?

Hello, I had my upper rear molar amalgam filling removed last week. It was a large filling I had since 4th grade. Actually, when I was in 4th grade the dentist put 5 big amalgam fillings in my upper molars. Then I got so sick with a "recycling ♻️ virus" I had a tutor for a year. So last week my pregnant 🤰 dentist was drilling away I could see the fumes going up to her paper mask, I felt bad for her and told her my concerns but, she assured me she was fine. After she removed that horrible mercury from my mouth, hours later the pain set in. Then in the days after jaw, (canker sore on) tongue 👅, ear, glands, neck and liver has been in pain. It's been a week now and it just seems continue. I saw the dentist the next day and she said it's normal when amalgam is removed. I don't know if I should see my regular doctor or just wait it out.

This problem started 4 months ago with these simptome:muscle contractions in arm, especially fingers, extreme hunger, dry mouth, instant pooping sensation (from intense intestinal contractions), extreme polyuria, tachycardia and hypertension. I processed lots of tests and only the following are modified: ph: 7,52, lactate dehidrogenase 1800u/l, sometimes glucose 150-350, platelets 80.000. After I move around (just walking)I make edema and muscles becomes swallowed and painful. Firstly it affected the muscles in legs, after the reaction stopped on the legs, it continued to the body with toracic muscles and now head muscles. Has anyone a clue about this disease? The doctors suspected even a poisoning but they don't know even now what it is, I was in lots of hospitals and I couldn't find a solution.

Hi,

So I read that by taking selenium you can inactivate mercury. They will bind to each other and stay as HgSe complex which is way less toxic. But how exactly this HgSe complex is removed from human body? Which phase two liver detoxification pathway is used to remove it? Kidney into urine? Bile to stool?

I’ve always had migraines ever since I was a teen. In my 20’s I was rushed to the hospital for symptoms of a stroke. Symptoms alleviated and they diagnosed me with hemiplegic migraines.

I’m 35 now and have constant head pressure and weekly migraines or headaches that last as long as a week. I take sumatriptan, butal-acet-caff and a monthly injection of ajovy to control the migraines. However, I still get them.

I also take gabapentin for restless legs and unexplained body jolts/shocks.

And sertraline for anxiety.

Again in my 20’s I noticed some spots that would appear on my tongue. My doctor took a look and diagnosed them as geographic tongue. Said they’re benign. So I just assumed it was nothing.

I started noticing recently the spots only appear where my fillings are on my molars. And it’s consistent. So I thought maybe I developed an allergy or some kind of reaction to my filling. This morning I decided to look up fillings causing sores on the tongue. Now I’m wondering if my headaches are linked to possible mercury poisoning???

I’ve had the fillings since I was about 12 years old. My last dental visit they did say the fillings were cracked and should be replaced. Is it possible my anxiety, memory loss, severe head pain (bulging eye, hearing loss, dim vision, nausea/vomiting) is a link to mercury poisoning???

MRI was fine, ECG’s were fine (had a partial seizure due to hemiplegic migraine, seizures during anesthesia), thyroids were fine.

Calling the dentist Monday anyway to get them replaced.

An interesting case of chronic mercury poisoning:

I gotta know if I should be worried or not. I ate like 4-5 times the WEEKLY recommended amount of tuna and 2 fish filets in the span of about an hour today. Do I need to be worried right now about mercury poisoning?

Hi everyone ,

On 24 October 2023 myself(40M) my 2 sons (12/2) and my 2 daughters (10/7) tested positive for heavy metals mainly Lead /cobalt /aluminium/chromium, the test was using chelation agent then 3 hours urine collection (done in Thailand), most likely we indigested it but my wife and i are struggling to know where was the exposure.

However my job now is based in dubai and struggling to find a reliable hospital world wide ( I prefer Europe )to retest and get treated if positive again ?

Do you know a reputable healthcare facility that can offer the treatment ?

Also I want to know Was the test procedure reliable ?

Just to add I have noticed lately that i am a bet in bad mode and my kids developed very aggressive behavior , also since one week my daughter (10) started crying at night and scared (first time since she was born)

I am thinking and reading hear and there and it is really exhausting me a lot as i don’t know where start and what to do

Please share with me your kind support and guidance

Since this sub is dead is there's any communities out there or groupes that discuss heavey metal toxicity and treatment?

I'm going to see a doctor tomorrow about my symptoms for the first time. I'm worried about taking a challenge test and ala. What do you guys think about sauna and binders that Don't cross the bbb, i haven't done much research but currently doing. Any good sources for informations?

I got my teeth filled many years ago i don't know if it contains mercury i have alot of the symptoms related to mercury poisoning, i also grew up eating tuna. Is there's any way to know for sure

I’m wondering if some people are more sensitive to mercury exposure than others and what symptoms you experience?

I recently tried DMSO and it stirred up a lot of mercury and I haven’t been the same for 3 months. I did a round of 12.5mg DMSA last week and had the worst adrenal fatigue in my life (no cortisol during the day, then cortisol at midnight and not sleeping). I’ve slightly improved after drinking lots of water and taking extra Mg, vit C and Bs.

My symptoms are constipation (my entire life), anxiety (since a child), depression (since 14), SIBO/candida (since teens), gallbladder attacks (since 20), chronic fatigue (20+), low body temperature (20+). At 38 I still have all these symptoms and have not made much improvement.

I’m curious to know if most other mercury toxic people suffer from these similar symptoms and if there’s a genetic component to our body’s ability to handle mercury detoxification.

I am hetero mthfr but that’s as far as I know. I’d be interested to know if it could be related to blood type as well.

I may be wrong in my assumptions, but it doesn’t make sense with just about everyone with amalgams, thimerosol exposure, etc, how is everyone not suffering from mercury toxicity?

So I'm going to try to keep this kind of short but my husband has been with me for 16 years when we met we were love at first sight type deal we've been through a lot together and we were very very close and he was my best friend and everything was okay because we were together through all of it but recently for the past 5 years actually he's developed some very serious mental problems sometimes and like delusions auditory hallucinations extreme lethargy just a lot of weird stuff that didn't really ever quite make sense and he's never really gotten a complete diagnosis on it. So the thing is he was 33 when he started having these symptoms and before that he had really bad insomnia symptoms he's had really bad digestive problems like gallbladder problems and very bad Harper and then won't go away no matter what at times it flares up and goes away it's weird but his auditory hallucinations are constant and persistent from the day that he started having them I didn't believe him at first about that but over time I've come to believe him I mean I've seen him at his worst of times he will talk to coffee pots and stuff like that and things that they're people communicating with him his head and it's terrible so of course you naturally you know we thought he had schizophrenia. But the thing is none of the schizophrenia medicine has helped him at all the only thing it does is put him to sleep but he either can't sleep and like when I say he can't sleep I mean he will not be able to sleep even if he takes a ridiculous amount of sedatives and then there's also the times where he can't not sleep and he will literally be in bed for days and days and days and days and days and just and I mean just not wanting to get out and I can't do anything he started abusing amphetamines to I guess to to stop being this tired all the time but the thing is they don't make a schizophrenia any worse or better it's weird like you would think they would make it worse but actually I've noticed that smoking though even just cigarettes makes it a lot worse a lot worse like and also like I've noticed that if I started suspecting his teeth as a part of the problem when I saw his teeth I never really look in his mouth and the thing is though his mouth looks like somebody just melted a bunch of black gray crap in there like he has 11 among them feelings and they're all at least 20 years old and they were put in his mouth and he was eight and I mean they're horrible looking they they just they're just terrible looking and I don't know to get them removed is so expensive I called and was going to try to help him get him removed but they're so expensive and I don't know like we just recently got insurance but I started suspecting your mercury poisoning after that and the other thing is myself so before my husband got sick we used to be very sexually active together and I started having problems like I've had really bad. You know ever since the past 10 years maybe like really they're not progressively worse the point where they're like so bad that their debilitating me bad I also have lethargy you know and stuff like that like randomly kind of just coming out of nowhere we both often times just get like we can't get things done sometimes between the two of us because we just can't quite pull it together you know like we just never can pull stuff together like we just I don't know we're not 30 days and like you know we stop having sex since you know he's been so sick and it's been hard to have a connection together because of that but the thing is since we stop having sex I've sort of feeling a little bit better if not tremendously better but but better notably better and I don't know it's just it's just I really believe that this is what's wrong with him and I think it's getting worse and I think it's getting so bad he's way over 200 lb and now he weighs like less than me probably I mean he probably weighs like a hundred and forty pounds 150 lb and he's 6 ft tall and I just I went to the hospital with him one night when he was having a really bad particularly about time you just have a really bad kidney pain and you know and they they refuse to do a Mercury test for me they laughed at me when I told him I thought that it was those fillings in his mouth and then they just sent us home after they couldn't find anything else wrong I decided to try him speak with a dentist and see if maybe I should take him to the dentist so I look for one that did the safe removal thing because I thought maybe they might believe me I didn't want to get him laughed at again and then mail I didn't want someone who didn't know what they were doing messing with his teeth either because you know I don't want them riding in another and giving him fucking a cute mercury poisoning and kill him anyway so then I called them the closest one with over an hour away from me almost 2 hours away from me and they said that it was going to be like a ridiculous amount of money to and they're talking about 10,000 or more because he hasn't been all four quadrants and the teeth are ground down so bad that most of them are going to need crowns I don't know if implants will be cheaper but I imagine not and I feel like he's running out of time I've got him taking some things that I hope will help him to be able to get through this but shit but I don't know how much longer you can last like this and I'm scared so can somebody please help me I just don't know what to do I'm really broke right now I don't have a lot of money right now and and I don't know what to do

Hello,
After hearing that Hair test is probably the most accurate.
How much would Great Plains Heavy metals test cost me please ?
Thank you

From June 2021-December 2021 I ate tuna on a daily basis. Starkist pouches. Sometimes twice a day. Didn’t know about mercury. Only learned about it a couple weeks ago when sudden insomnia and bad anxiety sent me to ER.

Long story short, I thought I suffered a concussion about 6 weeks ago. I went a week with brain fog, headaches, anxiety, face tingling/burning sensation. After a week of not knowing wtf was going on, I finally noticed a swollen bump on my head. I had them remembered hitting my head while standing at work on a metal surface. At the time the hit phased me a bit but quickly shook it off. The symptoms were delayed a whole day I didn’t connect the two at the time. But when I felt the bump, went to ER, CT scan turned out clean. Ruled I suffered a concussion. I neglected concussion treatment in first week and expected delayed recovery.

2 weeks ago, suffered new symptoms. Major derealization and awful insomnia. Vision issues. After being up 3 days, my sister brought up mercury. Someone she knew had gotten it from eating a lot of fish. Said my symptoms seemed similar to his. This freaked me the hell out, another ER trip ensued. ER wasn’t equipped to test me for it (not is anywhere in my shit town) but doctor said “it would be out of your system by now if you stopped eating it that long ago”. So I just kind of agreed and thought “I’m overthinking this and I’m dealing with PCS. (Post concussion syndrome. Which is scary b it nowhere near as scary as mercury). But. Damn. As days go by and I still can’t sleep without a z drug, and there’s no difference in how I feel. I can’t help but still be scared of mercury.

Basically I’m asking if anyone knows if mercury symptoms can be so delayed. I stopped exposing myself 16-17 months before symptoms even occurred. Just seems like it doesn’t line up but I’m also baffled how what seemed like a minor bump to the noggin at work at the time actually caused a concussion that’s caused me issues 6+ weeks later. I’m just scared. I just want to feel like myself again. If anyone has information, I’d appreciate it. Thanks. Just needed to vent.

I was recently prescribed Ozempic to treat my type 2 diabetes, and after researching how the medication works. I am a little worried about how its slow gastric emptying effects will handle mercury chelators like ALA, DMPS, and DMSA. Do you know of anyone else's experience with taking this type of medication while trying to chelate? Can this medication affect the timing of the half-life dosage for the chelators?

Hi all! I just wanted to add some anecdotal experience I thought may be helpful for some. I had a visibly broken mercury filling (silver/amalgam filling) removed two months ago along with a crown replacement for a crown that wasn't fitting well, so I've had two sources of mercury removed from my mouth. There is still an amalgam tattoo leftover in my gum from my previous dentist that I intend to have removed. I've had these in my mouth since I was at least 10 or 12 years of age, and since about 14 or so I've struggled with unbearably period cramps. Advil wasn't even enough to make them tolerable enough to get out of bed on day one of my period and it would cause me to miss school and work. I'm 27 now and this has still been the case despite trying every natural method I can to fix it besides birth control. I'm doing well in other health areas and I have regular, seemingly healthful periods and fertility, the cramps are just very painful. Well two months ago I had my amalgams removed, using a lot of safety techniques, and my last two periods have been so so so so much less painful. I was not expecting that result at all and I didn't even relate it to the mercury. I was very confused by it and brought it up with my boyfriend. He found a research study from Japan, where female workers who were exposed to mercury at their factory jobs had very high levels of dysmenorrhea (painful period cramps) compared to those who weren't, due to Mercury's effect on hormone levels. I'm hoping this pattern continues for myself!

I would like to know if there are any safe, proven ways to flush out mercury from my body, especially any that may be in my brain.

I have been following chris shades protocol on and off for about 2 months now and I have had really good results but am still not all the way there yet. Just wondering if anyone else has tried it and what their experience has been like

Is 33 mcg/L dangerously high mercury? I am pescatarian and eat chinook salmon on a daily basis. I would like to know if this is enough to cause symptoms and be toxic. Thank you.

When I was a student a thermometer broke on my desk without me noticing it. It was probably a week or two until I found out. I slept in that room and probably sat at that desk in the evening to use my PC. How dangerous was that? Could it be that I got poisoned from that?

Many thanks for any help!

Hi.. i got a covid and after 2 months after i had it i started to feel stressed, weak, my heart rate was higher than usual, loss of energy.. no matter how i sleep i didnt feel refreshed.. after that i developed anhedonia and panic/fear 0-24 due to stressfull period on my work and all that with covid come together, after anhedonia i developed blank mind(no inner monolouge, no emotions, no imagination, no creativity, no personality, no inner world) and remained blank for one year now.. i didnt try many things for recovery i belived i will heal naturally but that didnt come.. recently i found out i have heavy metal toxicity(mercury), parasites in my blood, my eritrocites look like i am stressed 0-24 even if im not and my whole body is in mess complietly, like covid is destroyed my mind and body.. is somebody have severe issues like me due covid and is it possible that all this(heavy metals, parasites, bad looking blood) can caused symtoms like this??.. i will appriciate any answer.. thanks!!
