Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gucchi" data-source="post: 1727943" data-attributes="member: 131949">HiI am new here. Been reading posts for a long time but this is the first time I have posted on here. I was diagnosed with type 2 nearly 12 years ago. I couldn't understand this as I did not eat convenience foods and I have not added sugar to my diet for over 40 years. I have been listening to a seminar from the iThrive community and one of the doctors mentioned about mercury poisoning contributing to diabetes. I was having problems with my gums around 2004. I seemed to be always taking antibiotics. In the end the dentist decided I needed to have all my teeth out. I had a lot of amalgam fillings. He took them out at the rate of 1 a week and sometimes he missed a week as I was so ill. He took no precautions though. I have read that I should have been wearing an oxygen mask at the time to stop me inhaling the fumes. After this I started suffering with my ears and throat with abscesses at time. In 2006 I moved to my present address and 3 weeks later I was in hospital having lost all my white blood cells. Nothing was ever done to find out why this had happened. This is when my blood sugar rose and I was diagnosed as diabetic.I have been on Metformin and insulin injections for some time. On 10th February I collapsed and lost the use of my legs. I had been seeing some articles about Metformin sickness so decided to take a look at the symptoms. I was suffering from all of them so refused to take any more tablets. Since then I have been feeling better in myself and was mobile the same day that I collapsed. My sugar  readings are all over the place. I don't know if I should still be injecting insulin. My doctor here is useless on the matter.For him medication is always  the answer. When I asked him about mercury poisoning he said they don't test for that in Spain. Sorry for such a long thread but it is good to get it off my chest. I just want to know if anyone else has had the same experience and what would happen if I stopped injecting insulin. It doesn't matter what I eat my blood sugar still goes up.</blockquote>
