Kidney Pain
I think that I mentioned that I was having leg pain also. I have been unable to determine if it is from my kidney(I get this sometimes but not so severe) and I also was wondering esp after reading the magnesium post that julie gave, if my magnesium and calcium was off balance. Maybe it is from the although small amounts I have been taking. I have even had to take advil because of it.
If they are not discussing it on the other forum, we could continue to discuss it here and just share information the best that we can. If I come across any informaion or continue to notice symptoms, I will let everyone know.

Leg pain and kidney pain in my mind are PHENOMINALLY common with heavy metal mobilization. I had HORRIBLE kidney pain post dmps-challenge and post-candida treatments, both of which will mobilize metals. ANYONE treating lyme/candida who is experiencing kidney/leg pain should be very careful, and should consider heavy metals imho. Gut metals binders, as discussed here many times are important here. And after YEARS of searching for answers and careful (followed by not so careful) experimentation I've found treating babs first followed by specific chlorella products is working well. This is nothing short of a miracle for me after 5 years of searching.

Anyone with chronic illness imho should AGGRESSIVELY supplement sodium, potassium, magnesium, and caclium, ala Kevin's recs here. This is where perhaps the blasi salts are a perfect answer, but I also like the idea of salt/c, GERSON COMPOUND POTASSIUM SALTS, mag malate and chloride solution, calcium citrate, high ph natural waters, etc. I have bee experimenting with small amounts of coral calcium here, but I worry about heavy metal toxicity here. I've been taking a 1/4 ts daily lately with LARGE amounts of chlorella as an experiment.
No doubt really, we ALL need to deal with these four minerals.
>> Maybe it is from the salt c although small amounts I have been taking.
vitamin c will mobilize metals, and salt/c will probably kill any number of pathogens that harbor metals. Sea salt might provide such a complement of minerals that it displaces metals also. Perhaps pure salt would be better in this manner, not to mention the fact that it probably contains less heavy metals. I have NEVER seen an indication that sodium chloride will likely displace metals, but who knows.

I'd minimize the advil for liver detox reasons.
I hope we continue to discuss salt/c and possible complications including heavy metals here. I presume we will.
NOTE THAT I DO BELEIVE I'M HAVING SOME SUCCESS WITH MODIFIED CITRUS PECTIN. I'm becoming increasingly concerned that salt/c is starting to go after my systemic fungal infections, as I'm all too familiar with the fungal (candida) dieoff, and I'm getting some mild symps lately, the most notable being brain fog. I'm finding that LARGE (6 caps) of mcp does indeed appear to diminish mild brain fog... I'm not experiencing strong brain fog. AT this dose, though, I could start spending a fortune on mcp, unfortunately. Also, I'm obviously concerned the mcp will bind to good minerals.
