SPECIFIC HEALTH CONDITIONS MERCURY CAN CAUSE

Problems mercury can cause

     Mercury can cause a bewildering variety of problems. In fact, one of the major criticisms of amalgam illness is that it is cited as the cause of so many things. But, like the parable of the blind men and the elephant, mercury can indeed cause many diseases. Modern physicians are not trained to find the root cause of a sick person's problems. They are trained to translate what they see into latin, look it up in their textbook, and apply a cookbook treatment. With a toxin that poisons fundamental metabolic processes different people will experience different symptoms to start off, depending on their own individual biochemistry. As the poisoning becomes more and more serious, further symptoms surface and the modern doctor adds more diagnoses - a patient who starts with depression might later be considered to have hypothyroidism, allergies and asthma in addition. But no thought is given to why one person should develop more and more "diseases," when a single diagnosis - chronic mercury poisoning - could account for them all.

Some of the "diseases" a modern physician might mistakenly misdiagnose chronic mercury poisoning as are:
 
 

Addison's disease	Gastritis
Allergies	Hypogonadism
Alzheimer's' disease	Hypothyroidism
Amylotrophic lateral sclerosis	Infertility
Ankylosing spondylitis	Insomnia
Anorexia nervosa	Irritable bowel syndrome
Anxiety	Juvenile arthritis
Asthma	Learning disabilities
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder	Lupus erythromatosus
Autoimmune disease	Manic depression
Bipolar disorder	Multiple chemical sensitivities
Borderline personality disorder	Multiple sclerosis
Bulimia	Myasthenia gravis
Candidiasis	Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Chronic fatigue	Panic attacks
Colitis	Parkinson's disease

Depression	Psychosis
