Hi there.
My partner Charlie has been Chelating Mercury from his stsyem for 18 months now and from being in a wheelchair then he is now back, professionally climbing and working and walking and is on only one celebrex every 72 hours versus 8 a day and taking steroid shots...etc...
He is strict NSD but can now eat many foods that one year ago were impossible. All as a result from chelating.
If you or anyone reading this is looking into Mercury Toxicity and its relation to the auto immune system I would urge you to seek out Andy Cutlers Book:
http://www.noamalgam.com/There is a supporting worldwide Yahoo group who can advise you too, like KickAS but for those wanting to chelate. Many prescribed 'conventional' Doctors will advise protocols which are too agressive and will make you more ill. Andy Cutlers protocol for chelation is hard to follow, as it advises small amounts of DMSA and ALA every 3/4 hours for 3/4 days on... but if you are serious about this, then I would really recommend this publication and the Yahoo support group.
I could harp on for hours about the damaging relationship between mercury and AS. Following this protocol and looking into the direct effects mercury has for suffers of AS has opened our eyes. Please seek out this book and get a hair test done.
Best of luck in your path and kind regards,
Please e mail me if you need any more info.
Good luck.
Gilly
