Our guest today, Barry Walsh, has an incredible story about allergies to an IV filter,  as well as spinal fusion hardware implanted after a 40 foot fall at a construction site. Prior to surgery Barry was a wealthy & successful construction contractor in New York City to many big name celebrities and organizations. After his fall he became homeless, gaslit, dismissed by medical professionals, locked up in psych wards repeatedly and lived in his car until a hero surgeon believed him and started removing his metal. 

In this episode you will learn:

  • What an IV filter is an how it can be dangerous to your health.  

  • How metal allergies can be mistaken for mental illness. 

  • Just how much health can be restored when metal is removed. 

  • How to better advocate for yourself with metal allergies.
