Hello all, Dr. Austin's lump is already showing. Apparently, it is the top of his cranium bulging out his abdomen.
Even if the Doc won't discuss the issue with you anymore, you might try to point out to him that silver is not a heavy metal. If you can communicate with him any more, ask for a cite on: "Silver also poisons the anti-oxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase..." Has anyone heard of this before? The probability it was colloidal silver is slim. Did you ask him if his research is available for review by laypersons?
