[R]ound 19 was a real pain in the ass, as is every round I do with DMSA. It seems 50 mg of DMSA is the maximum recommended by Dr. Cutler and I had done that much and more on a three-hour schedule before, but this was the first time I did it on a two […]

Meet Brad who recovered from Bipolar Disorder
I want you to meet Brad who is one of the lucky few to discover that bipolar disorder can be caused by mercury toxicity. He was kind enough to spend an hour on the phone with me walking me through my 23andme results when I was totally bewildered by them so when he mentions […]
Hanging on for dear life
[T]hat’s not me in the picture but it’s how I felt in round 18. It started off with a bang – a powerful surge of energy that sent me doing every kind of errand on the first afternoon, running madly around from one store to another, fixing things around the house etc. This was my […]
Mission aborted
[I] hit the “stop alarm” button on my tablet Friday night at 1:45 am and went back to sleep without taking my chelators. When I woke at 4:15 AM and realized the mistake I was mad as a hornet! This was my first round after taking a break for nine weeks and I was experimenting […]
Closed for repairs
[M]y wife asked me why I was so serious this morning — which reminded me this happens whenever I’m increasing my methylation supplements (added 2oo mcg metafolin today). I get serious and I stop talking because my brain is fogged up and simple things require much more effort. On the days I’m ramping up methylation, […]
Too complex?
Alex emailed me something yesterday that caught my attention. He wrote: You seem like you have the analytical attitude to work your way through this mess, a lot fail because it is too complex. He’s absolutely right that what I’m doing is really complex. On chelation days, I’m filling 25 containers with supplements daily and […]
The big switch
[C]helation dosing every 3 hours is a pretty standard interval but some people find they feel better with more frequent doses. On round 5, I tried increasing my dose frequency to every 2 hours and 24 minutes and it went pretty well until day 3 when I had a nasty meltdown. Later I realized that […]
Reining in my fears
[A]m I getting any better? That’s the question that flits through my mind just about every day. I’m still sick and dysfunctional but I am investing a lot of time, money and energy into long protocols. As Freddd has commented, this is the game that we bet our lives on – so I don’t think […]
A good guess
[T]he first time I increased my dose frequency (round 5), I went from 8 doses to 10 doses per 24 hours. I should have reduced my dose amounts (but didn’t do my research) and got into trouble. In round 15, I went from 8 doses per 24 hours to 9 doses and increased my dose […]
Ready for dose increase
[M]y 14th round was very long, a record for me at 12 days. Based on the prior round I expected to feel better than I did. After the first day of side effects, I settled into a state of mild apathy and slowness or confusion. Also did not experience any of the euphoria that I […]
Thank you for my headache!
[N]ever been as pleased with a headache before. After seven days off-round, I was so anxious to get started again that I couldn’t wait for Monday morning, so I started chelating at 8 PM on Sunday. By 10 PM I had a beautiful frontal headache that filled me with joy. Having just discovered my heavy […]
Short or long rounds?
[W]hen I first started chelating, I would have more energy on the first day and then the sleep interruptions would pull me back down to about even on the second day. The third day I was dragging and really grateful the round was ending. Somewhere along the way, I started noticing that my third days […]
Power surge!
[L]ast night, something very unusual happened. When I lay down to sleep right after taking my 11 PM chelation dose, I realized within a couple minutes that my energy level was way too high. My first thought was that I had finally hit the wall with my fish oil titration. I had just increased my […]
What does healing feel like?
[I]nstead of screwing around here, maybe I should be working now. But I hate to leave anything unsaid when it comes to chelation and my recovery. After 12 years of being ill I think I’m entitled to indulge myself with a little obsession. My notes for this round are at the bottom but to summarize, […]
Meet Patti who recovered fully from mercury poisoning
I want you to meet Patti Pili who recovered from a severe case of mercury poisoning acquired from dental amalgams. Her recovery process started in 2009 when she had her amalgams removed and following Andy Cutler’s chelation protocol she recovered fully by 2012. This is a dynamite recovery story that will inspire and motivate you […]
