First of all, I am amazed by the level of knowlege and brains I am seeing on this site! WOW! Secondly, I am in the process of being tested as well as looking at some other conditions. My question is, I had a mercury filling removed one month prior to falling ill last fall. It seems like mercury toxicity can mimic a lot of what is seen in Lyme's?

Yes. From what I have read, mercury toxicity can mimic some Lyme Disease symptoms. They also seem to go hand in hand. Lyme spirochetes thrive in mercury.
I tested high in mercury and also have Lyme disease. I don't know whether my strange symptoms of vibrations and tingling in my head and extremities are from the lyme or from mercury poisoning.

YOU KNOW IF YOU SEARCH SELENIUM ON HERE(sorry) in the last week there is a statement or study or something that says selenium can take care of mercury...in all these yrs i never heard such a easy fix-i might be able to find it later but cant now

Thank you for the feedback. Yes, I have read that post, and ironically just started taking Selenium recently. Seems like it's anti-viral too which we all can use. We'll see if it helps. Seems like a never-ending battle.

Dr K recommends increasing Selenium for lyme patients. He also recommends chlorella several times a day followed by droppers of cilantro about 30 mins later.
All the Best, MattH

MattH, I think I need to add here:
A dropper of cilantro taken at the wrong time and not ART tested could be causing a lot of misery.
Also added selenium should only be taken at certain times and when it has been ART tested.
Dr. K. does not recommend any of these without having tested first. Cilantro crosses the blood brain barrier, and it is a remedy that needs to be used with great care. In the early detox phases, a couple drops (not droppers) of cilantro may go a long way.
If you have no means of testing (in which case you may want to learn to tensor), start with a drop or two dermally in the affected areas and be very careful with added selenium. It is also easy to test with a tensor if your body needs or wants more selenium, etc.
Take care.

Thanks for the additions Gigi. I heard Dr K speak on Patrick Timpone's One Radio Network last week, discussing this for getting rid of heavy metals.
The amount is up to the practitioner and the user.
I personally have been using DMPS infusion and will be switching to EDTA chelations now that my mercury is significantly down. Still have to "get the lead out."
