Answer
Dear Moira,

Unfortunately, you have not specified the nature of your attack, given any specifics about your person (age, weight, general life-style and diet) or included any symptoms, so I cannot begin to know what you may be suffering from, or in which direction to point you. It is my duty to assume the worst case scenario since you present me with a rather urgent and ominous question, but if you are really that ill with heavy metal poisoning you will need imminent hospital treatment, especially if it has affected your brain, heart and colon. So please, be sensible and seek out an appropriate physician a.s.a.p.

However, do not panic unnecessarily, since it is by no means certain that all those exposed to heavy metals get contaminated. Some with amalgam fillings suffer tremendous side-effects, others never notice a thing. Just bear in mind the auto-immune issues may not be related to heavy metal poisoning. Also, though, for auto-immune diseases, which can be life-threatening, you need a professional diagnosis. This can prevent fatal illnesses from developing.

Diets can help improve your overall well-being. But I cannot tell you whether I can help you until you have been diagnosed by a medic.
It may be necessary for the specialists to know precisely what chemicals you have been exposed to; so if you don't know,  contact the laboratories and do as much research as possible.

If it may be of any small comfort to you, I know several people who have worked in similar conditions to yours, and they have all reached the age of 70 without developing terminal illnesses, so far. Their worries however regards the exposure brought them much (mental) discomfort and caused stress-related allergies and minor conditions to develop. So make sure you deal with the facts to avoid unnecessary confusion and suffering.

Feel free to contact me again once you have more specifics. Complementary therapy has many ways to deal with serious illnesses and help in many cases when all that can be done is a slowing down of deteriorating processes. These processes are also natural and necessary, after all. Often what is needed most is the medicine of courage, comfort, faith and care.

Even considering the worst case scenario, try to remember, always, that illness and death are not sombre, dreadful things, but parts of life meant to be and help you to attain a higher understanding of the self. Plants, crystals, contemplation, and music can all be great aids to humanbeings in healing or dying (a natural transition from the temporal state to eternity).

Love Evelyn.
