Looking for advice for treating Aluminium Phosphide damage caused by slow leak gas over 5 years exposure (unaware till two close contacts)

Hi there I was poisoned with a slow leaking gas called Aluminium Phosphide (5 years... I was unaware of the product ) with two close contacts last year 14 days apart made me seriously unwell.

I have been doing lots of natural therapies including massage, chinese accupuncture and homeopathy compounds which also included a course of Silica. I am interested in anything that you can suggest to rid of toxin & inflammation that remains in my cells/ tissue/organs and repair the damage I am left with.

My head still hurts especially when I get really stressed. I have now been diagnosed with cPTSD and hyper chemical sensitivity.

kindest regards

Sounds horrible.

But I don't get why you have posted on a thyroid forum. Is there a specific link between aluminium phosphide and thyroid disorder?

Hi there, I was led to it because I was recommended to lookup Dr Chris Exley who suggests Fiji Water which is also apparently great for Thyroid, which I did and then I was prompted to join this group, so yes maybe I should delete !?

It is, of course, your choice.

But I don't recall anyone mentioning aluminium phosphide specifically, just aluminium in general.

No idea what you have looked at but how about a read here:

Managing aluminum phosphide poisonings

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

Though that does seem to focus on the acute stages.

Thank you :)) I have seen that article, but thanks again anyway!

If you want lots of literature on aluminium phosphide there are 237 papers listed on this link :

pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/#q...

Click on "Literature (237)" to see them. They are probably not all relevant to poisoning, so you may have to see if you can search for the word "poisoning" within the 237 results.
