Miscarriage Case Study (PART 3)

August 5th, 2010 in Articles // Fertility 1 Comment

Third Visit — 4 weeks after 2nd visit

*Susan and Peter Smith (names have been changed for privacy reasons)

Susan and Peter were going well with everything, except Peter had issues taking herbs and did not want to continue (taste problem). He was taking all nutrients and following the diet as recommended. All other lifestyle factors had also been addressed and he was not drinking any alcohol etc. Susan’s temperatures were not too low or too high in general, mucus changes were more apparent this month. She ovulated on day 16, however in her luteal phase there were frequent down spikes, often indicative of poor progesterone uptake or levels. Susan was still on chelation therapy and experiencing some constipation due to it, I discussed extra dietary changes with her to assist bowel motions. Peter did not require chelation therapy.

Continued on the same herbs and nutrients.

Fourth Visit — 3 weeks later

Susan spent a night in hospital almost 2 weeks ago, after arriving at the hospital’s emergency department presenting with abdominal pain, which was initially thought to be ovarian (cyst) related but later diagnosed as constipation. She was still experiencing some constipation, and still needed to be on chelation treatment for another 2 weeks. She felt under the weather when on chelation, but when off DMSA, felt “brilliant”!

I changed herbs to support bowel elimination until treatment finishes. She continued on immune herbal mix.

Fifth Visit — 12 weeks later

Susan was glowing! Her mercury levels were still higher than they should be, had 2 courses of DMSA, which did not change mercury levels, she was no longer responding to treatment and was wanting to stop chelation. Wanted to try to conceive with her current levels, which had decreased substantially, however were still seven times higher than normal and could still be a problem with her history of recurrent miscarriages. I explained this to her. She agreed to have some far-infrared sauna sessions, which had aided in the decrease of heavy metal levels for other patients. In addition to this I encouraged her to have hot baths (Peter was no allowed these) with bicarb soda and Epsom salts – to increase sweating and eat yet even more coriander and garlic, increase her levels of multi-mineral intake as well as selenium.

Her cycles had shortened to 30 days (before it was never before 32 days – sometimes longer), ovulation was happening consistently at days 14 and 15, her temperature and mucus changes were ‘textbook’ by this time, she had no more down spikes in her luteal phase with a nice and strong temperature rise immediately following ovulation. She had no PMT and was feeling really good.

Peter was feeling energetic, less stressed; digestion was good, had lost weight and was taking all his nutrients. He didn’t want to repeat blood tests or sperm analysis.

On today’s account, the review of recent blood test results were as follows:

  • IgA + IgG for Candida were normal
  • Positive IgM for Cardiolipin antibodies went from high positive to undetected.
  • Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) went from positive to undetected
  • Prolactin was normal.
  • Haemoglobin levels were back to normal.
  • All liver enzymes were normal
  • B12 normal
  • Day 21 progesterone normal
  • Gliadin Antibodies (EIA) undetected.
  • Mercury levels went from 50 times higher than normal to 7 times higher than normal.
