Recovery from
chronic health problems after amalgam replacement
About 85 % is
a statistical number that various surveys in Scandinavia have been shown to be
the portion of people recovering moderately fast ( 1‑3 years ) after
amalgam removal for various symptoms, some studies show 70+ %, some show 90+ %
but average of the several surveys I have got to know ( mostly patient group
surveys like Finn DAMS, Swedish Tandvordskadeforbundets
surveys, surveys of Norwegian Dentist Bjoern Oppedahl( over 1000 patients ), statements from dentists
who have treated their patients, statements from some amalgam researchers in
Finland etc.

From: Mike Godfrey MD Amalgam poisoning
I am an MD
with 37 years of clinical experience, the last 15 of which have
been devoted to environmental toxicology.
I have had 5 clinical papers
published in peer‑reviewed biomedical or
scientific journals over the last 7
years on the toxic effects of mercury from
amalgam. Two of my papers have
been published in the New Zealand Science
Review, this country's premier
scientific journal. I have also delivered papers on the adverse effects
of
mercury at CME approved medical conferences
in the USA. I have examined
over 600 patients over the past 15 years
and correctly diagnosed adverse
health effects from prolonged exposure to
amalgam. Most of these
predominently
middle‑aged patients had been chronically ill for many years
and had been going from doctor to doctor
in a futile search for the real
underlying cause of their protracted ill‑health.
Many had spent very large
amounts of money in inappropriate tests and
many had had to cease gainful
employment due to their ill‑health. The
reason why I can state that I have
correctly diagnosed these patients' problems is
that an independent
randomised
retrospective investigation was carried out on several hundred of
these patients and
subsequently published (Jones L. NZ Psych J.Dec
1999).
This is the
scientific method whereby primary research evidence is verified
instead of relying on unsupported opinions.
Over 95% of the patients that I
had seen and who had
completed both protected amalgam removal and
medical detoxification had achieved long‑lasting
major health benefits. They
were for the most part justifiably
delighted with the results, as well as
being angry with the dental profession for
causing their ill‑health and the
medical profession for their lack of
awareness. The latter included professors
who ought to have been more
knowledgeable (M. Godfrey, MD)

DALLAS
PATTEE Multiple
Sclerosis
The
neurologist said flatly, "You have Multiple Sclerosis (MS). There is no
treatment and no cure." I sat silently in shock! My suspicions had been
confirmed. I remember that day well, April 15, 1987 ‑taxes and Multiple Sclerosis.
MS is a tough
diagnosis for a 32‑year old who is looking forward to a productive
future. The thought of MS quickly blackened my future as visions of
wheelchairs, convalescent hospitals and headstones flashed like neon in my
mind.
I didn't
accept the words of my neurologist "no treatment, no cure." As Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and Miracles'
points out, "doctor's words can kill."
Just because
the orthodox medical profession was at a loss to help me did not mean that help
wasn't available elsewhere. I consulted with a homeopathic practitioner. The
first thing she said to me was to get the silver amalgam fillings out of my
mouth
because they were poisoning me. I was very
skeptical. If amalgam fillings were toxic why were dentists still placing them?
Surely the
ADA, AMA, FDA or Ralph Nader wouldn't allow such a thing. Or would they?
Barbara
explained that my health would not improve until the fillings were removed. She
prepared a tailored homeopathic for me, put me on a strict allergy‑free
yeast‑free diet with enzymes and B‑12 injections. She gave me injections and told me to drink
lots of distilled water and gave me a whole treatment regimen to follow. This
helped to stabilize my health but improvement was very slow.
I don't
believe in coincidence and it seemed God kept bringing to my attention stories
of MS victims making remarkable recoveries after amalgam removal.
In December,
1 87, the message sunk in and I found a mercury‑free dentist in San Diego,
to liberate me from the menacing clutches of the mercury fillings. He took
special precautions to minimize my exposure to mercury vapor during the
procedure
and I had chelation
treatments afterwards. But even with all these precautionary measures, I still
suffered horrible cumulative side effects.
I became
hyper with incessant insomnia and developed flu‑like symptoms. My MS
symptoms exacerbated. I wondered if
amalgam removal was a mistake even though I knew it was mercury causing such
physical and emotional distress. I was
right. It was mercury. Within two
months after amalgam removal, I knew without a doubt I was on the road to
recovery.
There have
been certain plateaus in the recovery process but considering mercury has a
half‑life in the brain alone, of 21‑27 years, it is a wonder my
body has responded so well. Yet my remarkable recovery is termed nothing more
than a placebo effect by the AMA, ADA and National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
I personally
think it's nothing less than a miracle! Actually, my improved health can be
explained quite easily as a simple example of cause and effect; remove a known
poison from the mouth and feel better. That's not a lace 0 effect; that's pure
truth and logic, also known as good ole common horse sense.
If you have
amalgam fillings be aware that they contain 50%
mercury and amalgam is often hidden under crowns and in root canals. Those
fillings sit in your mouth 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, year‑in
and year‑out and will probably follow you to your grave ‑ if not
help put you there! You may never know the serious chronic health rob ems you may avert later by taking action now. It's a matter
of choice ‑ yours. Be informed and be healthy.

CYNTHIA GREEN Multiple Sclerosis
After six
long years in terror and fear, it is almost impossible to make my story brief.
It started about eight years ago when I began having terrible headaches and
backaches. After visiting many doctors and getting no relief, I learned to live
in pain.
Then vision
problems began to bother me. Everything seemed to be a blur and was becoming
very dim.
Once again
doctors said you're just getting older and vision usually changes with age. I
laughed because I was only 22 years old! Not long after that I had to have a
hysterectomy but still the other problems persisted.
We had just
moved from Houston to the open country in Louisiana in 1985 when the problems
were really getting out of hand. I would drive home and nearly pass out and
would have to pull over and get myself together. I then began to notice I was
having trouble remembering things.
Suddenly in
November of 1986, the real nightmare began. I could not walk because of
weakness in both legs, experienced
balance problems, a low grade temperature,
stomach disorders, severe memory loss, states of unconsciousness, hair loss,
scanty urine and the list goes on...
Thousands of
dollars, numerous tests many doctors later, I was told I had everything from
Asian Flu to Multiple Sclerosis. An
MRI had
revealed lesions on the brain along with central nervous system damage and one
blind eye. I was told to go home
and learn to live with it because there
is no known cause or cure.
I was bound
and determined that there was an answer. All it would take would be time,
patience and God to find an answer to this horrible nightmare.
I began
having breathing problems and I would actually stop breathing. On one occasion
I had to be rushed to the emergency room and once again was told that sometimes
people die with MS.
I was no
longer able to drive a car or do my shopping because of all the overwhelming
symptoms. I walked with the use of a cane for four‑and‑a‑half
years only because I refused to be pushed in a wheelchair. I felt that if I
gave in this would be the last
of Cynthia Green. My husband did all
shop‑ping, cleaning and all our regular bookwork. My two boys couldn't
even depend on Mom for help with their homework because I could not even
comprehend the problems in which they needed help.
Needless to
say I was a cane‑walking zombie!
But
thanks to God, '60 Minutes' covered the mercury/amalgam issue and I caught the
last 1 0 minutes.
The program boosted me enough to look into every book at our local library on
mercury poisoning. The information was unbelievable!
I took
everything I found to my traditional doctor and laid it out for him. After he
reviewed all the data and my symptoms, he scratched his head and said,
"Let's be objective, but I believe you may have something here." He
ran a urine test and to our surprise, along with my history, the nightmare was
coming to a close ‑ the real diagnosis was
MERCURY
POISONING FROM DENTAL AMALGAM!
I contacted
DAMS in Colorado and Shirley Brown was very helpful through my detoxification.
I could never begin to express my warm gratitude for all that she has done.
After 6 years
of severe illness, I now drive myself; I can shop all day and never get tired;
I walk on my own without the cane; I can hold a conversation; I do my own
housework; I wake up each morning to a brand new day of blessings and most
important my husband and two boys have their wife and mom back ‑ better
than ever. Finally, I can say that I am healthy and the nightmare is OVER!
For this I
thank God, DAMS and Shirley Brown.
Now I am
doing all I can to help inform others of this hidden secret. I am establishing
a DAMS Chapter. It will be an honor to be a part of your organization.
You have
given me my life back and a cause worth fighting for and believe me after
fighting for my life for six years, just think of the fight I have in me to
make sure that amalgams are banned. Once again I thank you from the bottom of
my heart and I
promise to work very very
hard!
RS. I met a lady in her forties that was
diagnosed with MS. Her amalgams have been removed. She is going through detox and doing great. She only lives 30 miles away from me
and says once she has completed detox, she'll be
ready to help too!

MEMORIES OF MS By Mary
Davies
I was
diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at age 28, but my problems began long before
that. I started wearing eyeglasses at 8 years of age. That was probably the
first indication of trouble to come. The next fifteen years I dealt mostly with
emotional
problems. Deep depression and hypersensitivity
led to hospitalization, but even after intense therapy, I was doing no better.
Along with the emotional problems, I was also struggling with sleep
disturbances (which I didn't realize weren't normal) and
an irritable colon.
I finally
just grew out of the depression and grew into some unusual problems. I started
itching all over my body but had no
obvious rash. This was also at a time when I
was doing a lot of aerobic exercise.
Since I was
on medication for the itching and the medication also helped me sleep, for the
next few years things were (I
thought) fairly normal. I was always tired
(as I had been since I was about 12) but by that time I was so accustomed to it
that
I didn't
consider it abnormal. This also happened to be the time when I was newly
married and on the birth control pill, so I
assumed my problems (depression) were
hormonally linked.
At age 26, I
had my first symptom of "MS' After that I
suffered strange symptoms. Achy legs, extreme tiredness and lack of
energy became everyday companions and my
sleep problems worsened.
Seven months
after I had my daughter, I had another "MS" exacerbation. It was at
this point that I was diagnosed as having
MS. A lot of
things beame clear when they told me I had MS. There
were still a lot of unexplained problems such as the depression and sleep
disturbances, but I didn't connect them.
Approximately
one year after having been diagnosed I had my fillings replaced. I was
skeptical at first so I didn't recognize what was happening to my body. I also
didn't take any effort to detoxify because I wasn't really sure what to expect.
Luckily,
I had a
dentist who was very knowledgeable on the mercury issue and he insisted I take
vitamins before and during my dental appointments.
I had my
fillings replaced in a series of three appointments. At the first appointment I
had one filling replaced and was fitted for a cap. THAT VERY NIGHT I SLEPT
BETTER! I was thrilled that I was sleeping better and knew it was from the
fillings
but thought that was the extent of
benefit from mercury amalgam replacement. In between my appointments, I noticed
strange
things happening (tingling, dizziness, and
metallic taste), but minimalized it.
Approximately
one month after total replacement. I acauired a
hormonal imbalance, various infections (yeast, bladder, and bacterial) and
stomach problems escalated. I also acquired new allergies only to have them
disappear right after they arrived.
It was about
at this point that I started realizing that I wasn't as tired as I used to be.
I was doing a lot more than I used to and my legs didn't ache anymore and I
continued to sleep good also. I was
convinced that the amalgam replacement was responsible for my improved health
but still didn't understand the importance of vitamin therapy. It wasn't until
I had another "MS" exacerbation that I discovered how important
vitamin therapy is. During the latest exacerbation period, I had symptoms of
MS, but overall I felt better than before I was ever diagnosed. It was at this
point that I decided to investigate the mercury issue further. I started taking
vitamin C every day and immediately started itching. I now know that the
mercury was trying to escape from my body and it was irritating my skin. I
continued to take the vitamin C and that's when I really started noticing
improvements. My energy level increased to a point I don't remember
experiencing for 20 years.
Today I have
very few "MS' symptoms, my irritable colon has tremendously improved, as
well as the hormonal imbalance. I continue to sleep well and my energy level is
at an all‑time high. Memories of achy legs and lack of energy are just
that ‑ memories. I thank god every day for the people that helped me in my
recovery. I only hope that someone reading my story will find an answer to
their problems and be inspired to have their fillings replaced.
Editor's
Note: Mary has had two miscarriages since amalgam replacement. The second
miscarriage was at seven weeks. Mary
requested that the fetus be checked for mercury and the results were four times
higher than normal. Mary cautions
women of child bearing age to avoid
amalgams and to follow amalgam replacements with agressive
detoxification protocols.

Amalgam Removal:
I was diagnosed with MS 4 years ago.
Symptoms included debilitating
fatigue, muscle
weakness, loss of coordination, headaches,
and eye strain. In my search for an alternative to BetaSeron and steroids, I was introduced to
amalgam removal and Dr. Hal Huggins.
Dr. Huggins has been replacing amalgam
for over 20 years. He himself has MS and
had even lost the use of his left leg
until his amalgam was replaced.
He has found that there are elements
surrounding the removal
of the mercury
fillings that, if considered, can make
recovery greater.
In August, I went to the Huggins
Diagnostic Center,
Colorado Springs,CO,for treatment. The
full treatment included methods that help the body eliminate mercury from body
stores. And they stress proper
nutrition, sunlight, avoidance of
heavy metal, etc.
My personal improvement has enabled me to return to full time employment and to
be able to walk 3 miles instead of the
previous 1/3 mile. Headaches are gone as well.

I am definitely convinced there is! I am a 52‑yr‑old housewife who
was dx'd
with
MS in Jan 1985. I have had 5 different
neurologists and 4 different
urologists. I have had about 9 treatments of steroids (methylprednisolone)
and
chemotherapy (cytoxan) from Feb 1987 to May 1993 and
countless
prescription
meds including antidepressants, antibiotics for bladder
infections,
muscle relaxants for spasms and tremors, and I can't remember
what
all else. At one point I was partially,
temporarily paralyzed. The
steroids
helped me walk again. The cytoxan, according to my neurologist,
was
supposed to suppress my immune system and make my exacerbations fewer,
farther
between and less severe. It did suppress
my immune system, but my
exacerbations
got closer together and more severe. I
had one bladder
infection
after another.
I didn't know any better at the time. But now I do.
Suppressing the immune
systems
is NOT the way to go. You should remove
toxins from your body and
not
put any more in. You should put in
healthy nutrients from whole foods,
not
foods processed with additives and preservatives. Help your body heal
itself. It has that ability if you don't abuse it. Linda
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Surely, I must know at least 20 people alone
who had adverse reactions and to have
their fillings ALL removed, including their root canals. I was one of these people. In 1994 I was diagnosed
with heavy amonts of mercury and yes, no doubt about it it was from the fillings. I had them ALL removed including my root canal. Then I went through
detox. It was a very difficult time. But, I made it and all MS symptoms
have left among the many other symptoms that go along with this
poison..

Recovery from MS:
In 1982 I, suddenly
had a bad pain in my left eye and went blind in that eye;
the opthalmologist
(graduate of Johns Hopkins) diagnosed it as retrobuldar
neuritis. He told me it could be Multple
Sclerosis. I rejected that
diagnosis. Steroids were my only option of treatment,
which I also rejected.
After approx. 2 months of complete blindness,
in that eye, pain had subsided
as the inflammation subsided, but nerve damage
was not correctable (so they
said) After using visualization techniques, it started to clear up. (I read
many books on these techniques, and other books,
like Norman Cousins,
"Anatomy of an
Illness.") The
doctors were amazed that I gained sight back.
(My theory was, if my brain could tell my
hand, for instance, to pick
something up, and it would respond, then why couldn't
my brain tell my body,
internally, to do things, as well. So, I used
visualization techniques to
tell my brain to send things to blast away the
scarred tissue on my optic
nerve, so the electrical impulses which allowed me
to see, could get
transmitted down the nerve, once more. This did indeed
work and although I
doubt I will ever get full vision back in that eye
(I don't do those
techniques anymore) I can see out of my left eye,
although it is like looking
through a screen, there are holes in my vision
field, and colors don't look
the same anymore.
The following year, the double vision
abruptly interrupted my life and spinal
taps, MRI's, and a barrage of nuerological
tests "confirmed" the diagnosis of
MS. This time I endured the steroids (and the
side effects.) The spinal fluid
did not show MS, but the
"confirmation" was made by the double vision and the
plaque or scarring on my brain shown by the MRI's.
The steroids, it is said,
do not work for everyone, but I could see the
two separate images gradually
coming together as one over a period of 3 months,
so the doctors claimed I
was steroid sensitive and so they did indeed
work for me.
Next year, my balance was affected and rotary
nystgmus (eyes move on their
own and shake constantly) set in. Again,
steroids, visualization (my idea
again, doctors, of course, poo-poo'd
that idea) and 2 months of time made it
go away.
Through the next few years, I endured
depression (attributed to the
diagnosis) fatique, blurred
vision, nervousness, anxiety, weakness in my
limbs, tingling sensations, burning sensations and
various pain. (All
attributed to the MS, but I rejected steroid treatment
and opted for just my
own method of treatment: distraction in the form
of reckless behavior, ie,
sky diving, impulsive behavior, drinking to
excess, manic behavior, etc.
It was around that time, 60 Minutes reported
the amalgam/mercury story. I had
11 large amalgam fillings. My cousin was a dentist and removed all of
them,
at one time, and replaced them with gold (now I
wish I had opted for
composite material, but the gold doesn't seem to cause
me all that many
problems). Within 10 days, I had NO more symptoms of
MS! Very few people,
including my doctors and my cousin, the dentist,
believed me. I didn't care,
I KNEW it was from the mercury!! (Thank God
for that TV report!)
This has been a long, but educational trek. I
HAVE NO DOUBT I was mercury
poisoned and still endure some after effects. I did
not do any chelation, I
didn't know about it back then.
I feel extremely strong about getting the
message out and making "whom ever
it is" that approves mercury use to STOP!
I would like to go back to school to become
whatever I need to to get the
necessary credentials (not sure what they are, though)
to do research,
writing, etc. to get paid for working against this
practice of using
mercury, about which I am so passionate, interested
and directly affected by.
I wish everyone affected by mercury all the
best of luck in beating this
thing If there are any questions about my
experiences, please send me an
email or posting and I will be glad to answer.
Sincerely,
Lisa Cochran (lisalmccoc@aol.com)

Dear Sir, Amongst the many
patients I have treated over a career as a dentist
spanning almost thirty years, I have treated
nine patients diagnosed with multiple
sclerosis in the last six years. I have prepared them nutritionally and removed
their amalgam fillings and all other metal from their mouths using the
recommended protection protocols, plus an intra‑venous administration of ascorbate. Two of these patients lost their symptoms
completely within a few
days of treatment and have remained symptom free for over four
years. Five have experienced a profound reduction in symptoms, allowing a
normal life style
once again with no further deterioration and two have a general improvement in condition though less
profound, increased energy and slowing of disease progress. Stool tests before and after treatment show
2‑300ugm.mercury/l stool pre‑treatment
to as much as 1‑11/2 million ugm./l three days post
treatment, falling to low or no level in two months. It would
seem to me that MS would qualify as a
mercury/amalgam related condition.
Yours faithfully, Vincent Maiolini BDS. www.talkinternational.com

My
health has improved a lot(MS) since I had my mercury
fillings removed and had my root canals extracted. I still have MS, but my symptoms have been
greatly alleviated with the removal of dental sources of poison, a strict
supplement/diet regimen, mercury IV chelation using DMPS and followed by an IV vitamin/mineral
replacement the day following chelation

The Mayo Clinic has told us, "...an allergic
reaction would typically
result only in redness, soreness or other problems
around the tooth with the
filling. It wouldn't cause a disease that affects
widespread areas of your
body."
<A
HREF="http://www.mayohealth.org/mayo/9708/htm/2ndop_1.htm">Mayo
Clinic</A> (1997) That statement could surely explain my
buccal response to
amalgam removal.
However, I do have diseases encompassing widespread areas
of my body.
The
diseases I am suffering from, CFIDS, Systemic Candidiasis,
Fibromyalgia, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, numbness and
tingling in the extremities (Dx: MS in 1997 by brain
MRI and symptomatology, refuted in 1997 by spinal
tap) and many others, not serendipitously, represent the common suffering of 90
- 100% of the members comprising the 3 Internet lists of anti-amalgamists that I associate with. Literally hundreds of us have banned together
on these lists, having found relief from years of untold suffering with these
common symptoms only through the removal of amalgam fillings, subsequent heavy
metals chelation, and/or the rebuilding of our ruined
health through nutrition and supplementation. The symptom picture is undeniably
clear, and clinical and anecdotal evidence abounds.
The
thing that's really helped me of late is lipoic acid chelation ALA Andy Cutler.
I've gotten rid of most of my MS symptomatology
and other stuff too.

Excuse my poor English. I Was born 1954
Denmark. -In 1960 I got the first amalgam. Down to 1990 I got 15 amalgams! In
1978 first MS symptoms( paralyzed right leg ).
By 1982 MS worse ( ~
all legs and arms damaged )
In 1990 I got amalgam out; without
protection, but no problems. I got 8 Gold crowns. In 1995 met Dr. Monrow
( from Breakspear Hospital ,
London ) She told me: MS is a breaktion of the body
of heavy metal .I got: antyoxidanties and much
Multivitamin.
In 1997 I met Dr. Frank Liebke
( about
1985 he had worked in Los Dallamos to
detox People after Atomic bomb.) Here I met cinesiologie.I got tested about
Medizin, Materials , DMPS
,... I got 6 x DMPS chelations. Then Chlorellaalges ( 2 x 5 g )
In 1999 I replaced all Gold .
In 2000 I got tested, using ceramic ( Empress II glued with ketac

Hair loss is one of the symptoms of

replaced, and my hair has completely stopped falling out; my hypothyroidism
turned out to be Hg induced.

After I had my amalgams out I've noticed that
my gums are less red and the plague and mouth odour
has virtually disappeared, almost to point were I don't need to brush my teeth.
I do brush and floss, though more out of habit than anything else. I always
wondered how ancient man got by without brushing and flossing, now I know, they
didn't have dentists putting mercury in
their mouths. I'm thinking that all that mercury suppresses the bodies
ability to deal with all the bacteria.

The reason I believe it is mercury is
because when I took amalgams out
arthritis, fibroymyagia
and skin rashes disappeared. That is
enough for me.
But, I believe I have to look into
possible cavitational investigation, as I
do have at least four teeth missing in
the rear of my mouth, both upper and
lower.
Also have a tatoo.

olympic runner recovery from amalgam
poisoning
" Garpenborg
_terst_lld
Men Helena drog sig till minnes
en artikel hon l_st om den tidigare sprinterl¸paren Christer Garpenborg. ‑
Han blev rullstolsbunden av sina t_nder,
ber_ttar hon.
Garpenborg som var inriktad p_ att ta en OS‑medalj
i Moskva 1980 kunde pl¸tsligt inte springa ett steg.
Han blev helt _terst_lld efter en amalgamsanering och kom
sakta
tillbaka till idrotten.
1981, tv_ _r efter saneringen, vann han b_de SM och
Finnkampen.
Tanken slog Helena att
hon kanske ocks_ var ¸verk_nslig
mot kvicksilver. Och n_r hennes mor,
som bor kvar
i Falun, s_g ett
TV‑program med falutandl_karen Olle Redhe om amalgamsanering tog Helena kontakt med honom."
So, it appears that Christer Carpenborg, ( who I remember from watching olympics
and also from yearly Finn‑Swede field & track competitions I used to
go watch once to
Sweden, once in Finland at the time he
used to run, also remember Swede crazy discus man Ricky Bruch yelling at the comps ) went almost completely wheelchair‑bound from
amalgams, and made full recovery, I
remember comments he made of almost complete hair‑color change to bronze
related to the amalgam removal, similarly, my brothers hair got very dark like
mine from compleletely blond the further the
poisoning progressed, and his hair has gotten also much blonder, but also has
turned very prematurely partially gray after the amalgam removal, mine has not
gotten back to blond, that much yet, only with heavy NAC and GSH intake it does
get a little lighter, mine actually DROPPED mostly because of the backfired
DMPS, so guess it really was not the best thing
to do. R.

Subject: Re: Thyroid / Adrenal Questions/Recovery
I was on Synthroid
(T‑4) for years....then switched to Armour (T‑3 mainly, a
little T‑4) Thyroid...tried virtually
every other sort in between. Did much
better on the Armour. Had to decrease the dose considerably when I
developed
Addison's Disease and was put on Cortef ( a form of
Hydrocortisone)....this is
not uncommon, and is well documented in
Endocrine texts (most of mine are at
least 7‑20 years old, even my
Wilson's ones. The two (thyroid and
cortisone)
can have a synergistic effect when taken
together.
Eventually I had to switch to timed
release T‑3 (cytomel) with just a bit of
Synthroid....my blood levels
of thyroid were fine, but was experiencing all
sorts of "hypothyroid"
problems......my body (probably due to the mercury
toxicity, at the time I assumed it was some
obscure new problem caused my my
auto‑immune disease). Had similar problems with estrogen and
cortisone for
awhile.
Have a girlfriend with late stage Lyme disease that has similar
problems. As I continue to improve I hope to
switch back to just plain Armour
again‑was so simple, inexpensive, and worked so
well for years.
I'm showing remarkable progress as I'm
going through mercury detox. (With
LA/DMSA/DMPS‑all orally) My chronic
inflammation has decreased
amazingly....is like a miracle, really. Years of nightmarish atypical edema
are going away. Severe fibrocystic breast disease has
virtually vanished. My
eyeglass prescription has improved 50%. And I'm an optician! Still have alot
of the "overt" signs of
mercury poisoning, the weird skin flushing, odd
lesions, and the list goes on....temperature
changes are still dramatic...very
little tolerance for heat or sun right
now. But my auto‑immune problems are
so much better that it's truly like
seeing a light at the end of a tunnel.
I'm actually able to sleep through the
night..without getting up literally ten
times to hit the bathroom.....and the
quality of sleep is so much
improved...what a difference that makes in how
one feels. I've been plagued
with severe problems (chronic fatique, environmental illness‑allergic to
virtually anything, Myasthania
Gravis, Polyglandular Auto‑Immune failure (lost
my ovaries, thyroid, adrenals,
pituitary, part of my thymus, and so on)for
over twenty years.......so this improvement is particularly amazing to me.
The smell of perfume still drives me
crazy, and I can't promise yet that I
won't "kill" someone for using
"Bounce" fabric softener.....I swear, I can
smell it and get immediately ill from a
mile away. But overall, life is so
much better...I used to be on an extreme
rotation diet.....can now eat almost
everything.....went to Environmental Health in
Dallas with WIlliam Rae close
to twenty years ago....did the shots for
years, followed the whole protocol‑to
no avail....but now things are clearing
up. (Still think the world of Dr. Rae
though‑he did try to help me in a truly honest
and forthright fashion)
<My doctor has also given me
Adrenal Cortex for my adrenals> Good luck with
that, but it did me absolutely no good.
Was on the same brand, also....went
through bottles of it, eventually if just
made me feel more toxic. Also tried
French manufactured IV Adrenal Cortex
extract......to no avail......if your
adrenals are in a seriously weakened
condition, adding thyroid can worsen
matters considerably‑I went into
Adrenal crisis and it was NO FUN. Ended
up
going to Broda
Barnes M.D. , in Colorado Springs, when he was still alive, the
thyroid "guru' at the time‑a true
gentleman and pioneer. He put me on 5 mg
prednisone (which he talks about in his book) to
try to supplement my adrenals
enough that I could take the thyroid (had a
huge goiter at the time, my
thyroid was so inflamed)‑but really
didn't help until I was on a larger
replacement dose of Cortef..my adrenals were too far gone.

Oral Lichenoid Lesions Cured by Amalgam
Removal
>Yes, I had those before amalgam removal,
they are whitish patches that hurt, on the mucous membranes on the mouth, They really do
hurt. I suffered from these lesions
continuously for ten
years since I had amalgams installed. Painful
to talk or smile. Acquired reputation as a grouch. Ruined my teaching career. But pain is a potent motivator. The pain of these lesions
is what drove me to search for a
cure. Consulted a dentist who said it was due to
poor nutrition. Studied
nutrition and found
only temporary relief as the cause was not removed.
Studied alternative medicine and learned of
metal toxicity. Got metal
out. six months later lesions cured. No more pain. End of oral lichenoid
lesion story. Harder to rebuild my
health, reputation and career.That
takes longer. Dale
Briefly, Got my first amalgams in high school
started having problems. Got a bunch more high copper
amalgams after graduating college. Got seriously sick.
All the classic symptoms and more. Wasted to 96
pounds, suffered several bone fractures that refused to heal. Desperately searched for
the cause of my illness by researching at library. Got no help from doctors. Then found out about amalgam toxicity and
getting better.
I no
longer experience the following symptoms:
Postural hypotension - faintness upon arising
Floaters, Dizziness
and ataxia, Lichen planus
Pale lips - indicative of anemia
Dryness of eyes,Wasting and weight loss - recovered 10 lbs.
Panic attacks, Constant depression and
nervousness
Constant fatigue, weakness, lack of energy
Edema, Constant hunger, Severe indigestion,
nausea, gas, and bloating,
Obvious steorrhea
Brittle bones-Fractures of lower back vertebrea, ribs, both index fingers(These

Yes, I have had cognitive improvement since
having bridge
removed and the galvanic pain is gone. Since bowel problems the past
month, I have not taken Ritlin
or Lodine ‑ I can't tolerate either; as
well as peanut butter, margerine,
coffee, etc. etc. By the end of the
first week of the bowel problem, I was
actually not eating much of
anything ‑ a ground beef patty was about
all I could stomach. I'm
taking lamotil
which gives much relief and I don't have quite as many
cramps in my stomach. I take just a little ibuprofen when muscle
pain
get bad.
Still not eating much of anything but
bowels are calmed down. But
certainly I can think better and my neck mucles are much more relaxed
since I had the bridge out. Walking problems come and go as well as
very shacky
hands. Heard from my med. doctor
yesterday and he is
conferring with doctors they said "in the
cities ‑
St.Paul/Minneapolis"
about my slightly high coproporphyrin results.
They also
called in another lamotil
prescription for me. I pray they come up
with the right diagnosis. Jackie

I have had the opportunity to do a vision
exam on Andy Cutler in April 1999 and again in December 1999. During this time period, Andy's visual acuity
improved, astigmatism dramatically reduced, crystalline lenses became clearer,
sensory fusion improved and convergence improved. There was no direct treatment of any visual
disorders during this time. None of
these things are expected to improve with time or age. Andy had his amalgams removed in the spring
of 1998 and has since been chelating
based on calculations that he did from some of the
Russian literature among other sources.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Same was reported in a Finn lady's 1989
published book of her
amalgam removal experiences, where she had her
amalgams removed, and she did no chelation,
just Vitamin C 5
grams a day, the lens clearing happened a bit
faster even than with Andy, and as said, no chelation,
just vitamin C, so the stopped mercury
caused oxidation of the eye proteins and increased antioxidant intake are
responsible for the improvements.
Similarly, Sam Queens Chronic Mercury
toxicity book has references of Ascorbate
improvements of eye parameters in relation to mercury.

Re: Mercury And Allergies
Mercury causing allergies? Naaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. Not possible! Two allergists told me amalgam had nothing to
do with it at all! That I had to go through several years of expensive, inconvenient and painful allergy treatments and then might see some relief.
Allergies are caused by immunoglobulin E to a
large extent. Everybody KNOWS
mercury has nothing
to do with that!
So I drilled out my fillings. Last one out on March 31.
IgE measurement
before fillings came out: 636.
IgE measurement in mid June (at 10 weeks) 328.
IgE measurement on August 5th (18 weeks) 263.
IgE measurement on November 18th/98: 175.
IgE measurement on 12/16/98 129
"normal" per this lab is less than 180. Many allergic people are in the
"normal" range.
My subjective
sensation of allergy does follow the numbers.
I do still get
some response to outside
air, but not so much.
Mercury couldn't POSSIBLY have ANYTHING to do
with those numbers! In addition
to having a serious
psychosomatic illness, I must be charismatic enough that the people at the laboratory who have never
met me are going along in mass hysteria
and imagining numbers! Couldn't POSSIBLY
be due to me removing my
source of mercury exposure,
now could it?
Nonsarcastic
note: the "average" allergy
sufferer has IgE of 180. Pretty much nobody with IgE
below 50 or 60 ever complains of allergies. We'll see how long that takes, but I'm betting on spring.
My subjective experience
of allergy sensitivity and discomfort pretty much
tracks the numbers. Allergies brought from insane to totally
disabling by tossing "sulfur foods," 1/1/97. Most of allergy and
asthma eliminated by amalgamectomy..
No idea what IgE was in 1996, but if subjective experience was a
guide it
must have been 3,000+.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I think in the end I can probably conclude
that when my system was very fatigued or sleep deprived, I was much more likely
to suffer a seizure (or jitterniess/tremors) because
my seizure threshold was lower under these "extreme"
circumstances. Since I had my amalgams
removed I feel better overall and I've been seizure free for about 10 months
now, take no more seizure medication and feel that the worst may very well be
behind me. I also conclude that this has also lessened the pressure my system
was under and may also contribute to the fact that I am now seizure free.

This
is about a friend of mine just to prove a point that the teeth can have a major
impact on our health. My friend is in her 60's and had her first mercury
filling in her 20's, shortly after she began to have debilitating migraine
headaches. She never associated this with her fillings and through the years
she continued to have more fillings as her headaches increased in severity. Two
years ago I had her read up on amalgam poisoning and she then opted to have all
her teeth pulled. Today she is totally free of migraines after suffering for
nearly 40 years. She said she had forgotten how good life can be. It should be
a criminal offense to cause someone this kind of needless suffering. Linda G.

a few months back I was ready to remove
my last two amalgams from under crowns when I discovered a rather large amalgam
tattoo in the front of my mouth. As I did not have the financial resouces to remove both I asked your opinion about which
was most harmful to my health and you recommended I remove the tattoo first. I
must share with you the results of removing the tatto
which to me has been phenominal. My brain fog has completely cleared up and my
energy is greatly improved; so much so that I no longer feel such great urgency
to remove the amalgam remaining under those two crowns. I'm intend to do
this very soon but I am thrilled with the results of removing the tattoo. It was a giant step in recovering my mental
and physical energy, I
am just over-joyed with the results and wanted to thank
you for the valuable advice, as well as share this information with anyone that

Nearly
ALL my symptoms went away after amalgams were out - I
noticed the difference (felt more "myself"
than I had in years) when about 2/3 of the way through -- I had many many amalgams
- something like 17 or more. Over 8
years of illness I had the same as everyone else: chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, hypothyroid,
Candida, food allergies from Leaky Gut,
etc.
These changed and morphed into each other over time - I didn't have them
all when I finally got the amalgams removed, which I did when mental symptoms
(extreme forgetfulness) began to scare me.
Since removal, my energy level and general feeling of wellness have
improved dramatically.
Food "allergies" improve every year
-- still can't handle sugar and a few other things, and have a persistent
exfoliating rash clearly connected to gut problems -- L-Glutamine helps with
that. I'd like to tell anyone who is wavering (as I
did for 2 years, not wanting to face the expensive facts) - GET THEMOUT, you
will be SO GLAD YOU DID!!

the symptoms that I used to have just faded away and have not returned. It took a long time for the gum to heal afer the root canal was extracted, it left quite a big

I had chronic fatigue, fibromyalgian,
candida, loss of fine motor coordination. After having my fillings replaced I have
found sauna to help with detox. It clears my mind and helps after a chemical exposure to
restore my energy level and reduce the
fibromyalgia. The sauna releases toxins and as these enter the bloodstream and
leave through the skin, you'll experience symptoms again as you get rid of the merucry. My
improvement has been both short-term and long-term. I have gradually gotten much better over the
past eight years.

I had two teeth replaced with porcelain and jelenko gold. My ulgy symptoms of
depression & anxiety came back. Checking out my newly arrived
bio-compatibility test results, ironically neither product was on my
recommended list. Both teeth had to be replaced at the dentist's expense.
Following removal the symptoms lifted. Porcelain has 16% aluminum in it. Replacement
materials must be matched to the person.
Dr. Farris has had good luck, with his sensitive patients using Herculite and unstained Dicor for
the molars. You want composites that x-ray like a natural tooth (least
metal). At present I have no metal in my mouth.

I have
for the last 10 years or so of my 22+ years of practice
worked with amalgam free dentists..helping their patients detox from
mercury..post amalgam removal. I think my very sickest patient was one two
years ago who had had 1/2 half of her amalgams replaced with gold..leaving the right upper and lower..still
filled with mercury. In less than four
months, her health was destroyed, literally. When
they first brought her to me...she had to be carried in...and
after each removal session..it was the same..although after the last and work with myself and an energy
therapist who works with me...she did walk out.
She also had the gold removed, btw as she
tested badly for any metal, whatsoever.

she was totally functional.She now does every thing

always did. Dr. Deborah Baker

I don't had mercury
poisoning from my dental fillings (+vaccines).
I had my (17)fillings removed and replaced
about 9 years ago.. A
chiropractor/nutritionist (who had had his own Mercury fillings out) did bioenergetic testing which tested for 5 forms of mercury. I tested
positive on 4 of the 5. (He said testing
positive on 5 basically meant I was dead.)
After much research, some supplementation, and a test for least reactive
replacement materials (via mail by Huggins Diagnostic) I went to WI (my sis
lives there)to have the work done because I couldn't
find anyone in OK who would do it right.
My symptoms of mercury poisoning included
weighing only 82 pounds (5'6", natural weight 110#), loss of memory, loss
of ability to spell (simple words like here and hear), cold hands and feet,
metallic taste in the mouth, pain in the throat and lungs when breathing deeply
or in cold air, leaky gut, chronic fatigue (drag home from work and try to
decide if I had the energy to shower or not!),among
other things...
I
consider myself in good health now. In
the last year,I have had NAET treatments for dairy,
mercury, nickel, aluminum, silver, copper, chromium, magnesium, tin, (one other
metal which I don't recall at the moment), MMR, chlorine, fluoride, my own
blood, a hormone (can't remember if she decided to do estrogen or progesterone
first), and will do several more.

mixed crown. It was after the
last metal crown in 1997 that I went down hill fast. I had fibromalygia
for 23 years and now chronic fatigue and have just found out I have mycoplasma fermentans incognitus
infection. I asked my Dr. which came first the toxicity or the infection and
she said the toxicity
suppressing my immune system and
damaging my central nervous system. I am lucky to be alive.
I had a hair analysis done
that did not show high mecury. I did a
fecal test and it showed very high mercury. I did not do the challange test
at all.
I’m certain it was my dental
fillings causing my symptoms because they all
dissappeared 3 weeks after removal,except for the fatigue.
I now have to be on long
term antibiotic's to get rid of this infection
if I can.

My health has improved a lot(MS)
since I had my mercury fillings removed and had my root canals extracted. I still have MS, but my symptoms have been
greatly alleviated with the removal of dental sources of poison, a strict
supplement/diet regimen, mercury IV chelation using DMPS and followed by an IV vitamin/mineral
replacement the day following chelation

Health Recovery After
Amalgam Replacement
My
experience is the same as yours. In a
week following the complete amalgam replacement my long-sightness
reversed and I could read newspapers in the morning again.
The
glasses, already ordered, were never needed.
This
happened 8 years ago-and no need for glassed yet!

/ better after amalgam replacement
Recently
had all (8) amalgams removed completely along with six
extractions under general anaesthetic
last week ‑ took nearly four hours aparently,
and I sure didn't feel too good last week
...
but now, WHAT A DIFFERENCE already. My vision is improving, morning ******
migraines have vanished, much less muscular
pain, clarity of thought is returning
‑
long way to go and I did promise myself to be patient
and cautious but I
really can tell a big differance
already (less than ten days!).
The
whole thing was done under Hal Huggin's
"protocol" ‑ I was very
impressed with the equipment (very high tech
stuff), knowledge and care, EVEN MORE
impressed with the sudden relief of some
symptoms. I have even noticed my left
nostril is easing (after nearly five years of
being blocked) and my sense of smell
is also returning. Generally feeling stronger
and "sharper".
*********************************************************************
Hi
all ‑ I have had six of my 10 amalgam fillings out so far and boy do I
feel really great!! First time I have been able to say this in
years and
years ‑ I even feel better than I did
before I got my chemical injury
summer 96!
How cool!! I even was able to
muster a little Christmas
shopping tonight dealing with people smoking
and perfume and all the
synthetic Christmas smellies
and I also went to Kinko's ‑ and NO
REACTIONS!!! I actually feel like I can someday be
well. I never
realized the inpact
that my mercury had on me. Was talking
to someone
the other day and realized that I started
getting really depressed the
same year I started getting fillings. But then that was also the year I
got my period so maybe the mercury has
nothing to do with it.
Anyway
‑ I guess I am babbling but I just wanted to share my fabulous
news and to thank you all for your
fabulous advice and support.

Consider
having mercury removed from the teeth. I
did, and got rid of
considerable depression and memory problems. It also eliminated many
illnesses and fatigue, as well as allergy
symptoms.
I had amalgam removed, and had immediate relief
from many distressing
problems, including very expensive
allergies. In fact, my antihistamine
budget of one thousand dollars per year and
increasing yearly, has more
than paid for the cost of amalgam removal
since 1990. My antihistamine
budget dropped to nearly nothing almost
immediately, huge stress levels
were reduced, short‑term memory
problems were drastically reduced, and I
could eat all the citrus I wanted without
lichen outbreaks.
Long
term memory was not affected. Short‑term
memory had become so poor
that I had to often look at a phone number
seven times while dialing. I
also often went back into the house for
something I had forgotten, only
to realize that I had forgotten what I
went back in there for, sometimes
requiring three trips back in before I got the
forgotten item!
The
problem disappeared with amalgam removal.

There is unquestionably a link between Crohn's, colitis and other
diseases of the bowel and amalgams. Several
people on this list have reported
over the years recovering from these
diseases by having amalgams removed. I'm
one of them. I had colitis from 1989 to
spring 1991. In April and May 1991 I
had 14 amalgams removed. By July 1991 the
colitis was gone. During some
stressful times later in 1991, I had brief
recurrences of colitis, but have
had none since. My theory is that the
intestines in some people can only be
exposed to so much poison before they begin
to develop chronic diarhea and
eventually chronic bleeding.

I am definitely convinced there is a connection between MS
and mercury! I am a 52‑yr‑old
housewife who was dx'd with MS in Jan 1985. I have had 5 different neurologists and 4
different urologists. I have had about
9 treatments of steroids (methylprednisolone)
and chemotherapy (cytoxan) from Feb 1987 to May 1993 and countless
prescription meds including antidepressants, antibiotics for bladder
infections, muscle relaxants for spasms and tremors, and I can't remember what
all else. At one point I was partially,
temporarily paralyzed. The
steroids helped me walk again.
The cytoxan, according to my neurologist, was
supposed to suppress my immune system and make my exacerbations fewer, farther
between and less severe. It did suppress
my immune system, but myexacerbations got closer
together and more severe. I had one
bladder infection after another.
I didn't know any better at the time. But now I do.
Suppressing the immune systems is NOT the way to go. You should remove toxins from your body and
not put any more in. You should put in
healthy nutrients from whole foods, not foods processed with additives and
preservatives. Help your body heal
itself. It has that ability if you don't
abuse it.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Recovery from MS:
In 1982 I,
suddenly had a bad pain in my left eye and went blind in that eye;
the opthalmologist
(graduate of Johns Hopkins) diagnosed it as retrobuldar
neuritis. He told me it could be Multple Sclerosis. I rejected that
diagnosis. Steroids were my only
option of treatment, which I also rejected.
After approx. 2 months of
complete blindness, in that eye, pain had subsided
as the inflammation subsided,
but nerve damage was not correctable (so they
said) After using visualization
techniques, it started to clear up. (I
read
many books on these techniques,
and other books, like Norman Cousins,
"Anatomy
of an Illness.") The doctors were amazed that I gained sight back.
(My theory was, if my brain
could tell my hand, for instance, to pick
something up, and it would respond,
then why couldn't my brain tell my body,
internally, to do things, as well. So,
I used visualization techniques to
tell my brain to send things to
blast away the scarred tissue on my optic
nerve, so the electrical impulses
which allowed me to see, could get
transmitted down the nerve, once more.
This did indeed work and although I
doubt I will ever get full vision
back in that eye (I don't do those
techniques anymore) I can see out of
my left eye, although it is like looking through a screen, there are holes in
my vision field, and colors don't look the same anymore.
The following year, the
double vision abruptly interrupted my life and spinal taps, MRI's, and a
barrage of nuerological tests "confirmed"
the diagnosis of MS. This time I endured the steroids (and the side effects.)
The spinal fluid did not show MS, but the "confirmation" was made by
the double vision and the plaque or scarring on my brain shown by the MRI's.
The steroids, it is said, do not work for everyone, but I could see the two
separate images gradually coming together as one over a period of 3 months, so
the doctors claimed I was steroid sensitive and so they did indeed work for
me. Next year, my balance was affected
and rotary nystgmus (eyes move on their own and shake
constantly) set in. Again, steroids, visualization (my idea again, doctors, of
course, poo-poo'd that idea) and 2 months of time
made it go away.
Through the next few years,
I endured depression (attributed to the
diagnosis) fatique,
blurred vision, nervousness, anxiety, weakness in my
limbs, tingling sensations,
burning sensations and various pain. (All
attributed to the MS, but I rejected
steroid treatment and opted for just my
own method of treatment:
distraction in the form of reckless behavior, ie,
sky diving, impulsive behavior,
drinking to excess, manic behavior, etc.
It was around that time, 60
Minutes reported the amalgam/mercury story. I had 11 large amalgam fillings. My
cousin was a dentist and removed all of them, at one time, and replaced them
with gold (now I wish I had opted for
composite material, but the gold
doesn't seem to cause me all that many
problems). Within 10 days, I had NO
more symptoms of MS! Very few people,
including my doctors and my cousin,
the dentist, believed me. I didn't care,
I KNEW it was from the
mercury!! (Thank God for that TV report!)
This has been a long, but
educational trek. I HAVE NO DOUBT I was mercury
poisoned and still endure some after
effects. I did not do any chelation, I
didn't know about it back then.
I feel extremely strong
about getting the message out and making "whom ever
it is" that approves
mercury use to STOP!
I would like to go back to
school to become whatever I need to to get the
necessary credentials (not sure what
they are, though) to do research,
writing, etc. to get paid for
working against this practice of using
mercury, about which I am so
passionate, interested and directly affected by.
I wish everyone affected by
mercury all the best of luck in beating this
thing If there are any questions
about my experiences, please send me an
email or posting and I will be
glad to answer.
Sincerely, Lisa Cochran (lisalmccoc@aol.com)

excuse my poor English. I Was born 1954
Denmark. -In 1960 I got the first amalgam. Down to 1990 I got 15 amalgams! In
1978 first MS symptoms( paralyzed right leg ).
By 1982 MS worse ( ~ all legs and arms damaged )
In 1990 I got amalgam out;
without protection, but no problems. I got 8 Gold crowns. In 1995 met Dr. Monrow
( from Breakspear Hospital ,
London ) She told me: MS is a breaktion of the body
of heavy metal .I got: antyoxidanties and much
Multivitamin.
In 1997 I met Dr. Frank Liebke ( about 1985
he had worked in Los Dallamos to
detox People after Atomic bomb.)
Here I met cinesiologie.I got tested about
Medizin, Materials
, DMPS ,... I got 6 x DMPS chelations. Then Chlorellaalges ( 2 x 5 g )
In 1999 I replaced all Gold .
In 2000 I got tested, using
ceramic ( Empress II glued with ketac
molar)
Now I feel fine!!!!!

The Alzheimer Disease symptoms experienced at
age 49 (loss of sentence thread,failure to remember
names of family members and friends, inability to remember why I was doing
things, etc.) miraculously disappeared overnight when a recent Amalgam filling
was removed from above an old Amalgam filling (actually all
Amalgam was removed at one sitting).
Galvanism between new #2 (‑11mv) and
old #31 (+2mv) not only increased the Hg vaporization, but it also overloaded
the thought process / body electric.

I'm showing remarkable progress as I'm going
through mercury detox. (With LA/DMSA/DMPS‑all
orally) My chronic inflammation has
decreased amazingly....is like a miracle, really. Years of nightmarish atypical edema are going
away. Severe fibrocystic breast disease
has virtually vanished. My eyeglass prescription has improved 50%. And I'm an optician! Still have alot
of the "overt" signs of mercury
poisoning, the weird skin flushing, odd lesions, and the list goes
on....temperature changes are still dramatic...very little tolerance for heat
or sun right now. But my auto‑immune
problems are so much better that it's truly like seeing a light at the end of a
tunnel.
I'm actually able to sleep through the night..without getting up literally ten times to hit the
bathroom.....and the quality of sleep is so much improved...what a difference
that makes in how one feels. I've been
plagued with severe problems (chronic fatique,
environmental illness‑allergic to virtually anything, Myasthania
Gravis, Polyglandular Auto‑Immune failure (lost
my ovaries, thyroid, adrenals, pituitary, part of my thymus, and so on)for over twenty years.......so this improvement is particularly amazing to me.
The smell of perfume still drives me crazy,
and I can't promise yet that I won't "kill" someone for using
"Bounce" fabric softener.....I swear, I can smell it and get
immediately ill from a mile away. But
overall, life is so much better...I used to be on an extreme rotation
diet.....can now eat almost everything. ....went to Environmental Health in
Dallas with WIlliam Rae close
to twenty years ago....did the shots for years,
followed the whole protocol‑to
no avail....but now things are clearing up.
(Still think the world of Dr. Rae though‑he did try to help me in a truly
honest and forthright fashion)

To make a long story short: Amalgam fillings contain 50% mercury and can ‑ along with
other metals such as alumium and nickel ‑
injure the immune system because it is continuously released into to body, primarly in the form of mercury vapors (fast
absorption!!!).

2 years post amalgam removal am feeling
pretty good; (although I still have a lot of allergy/hypersensitivity, and have
to watch it on the diet to keep the blood sugar relatively stable, keep the candida under control and the digestion working etc. etc.)
I think I have made it through the worst (I hope).
I just want to say "thanks" to
everyone who contributes to the list; I have learned a lot and it has been
helpful and interesting; I hope to check in now and then by reading the
archives (can one do that when one is no longer on the
list?); and perhaps in the future if I have more
time, (or if I ever get HBOT!) may sign back on to check in ‑
I have tried to take the conservative
approach and avoid the dmps/dmsa
on Ray's advice; I think it was a good decision as I am super chemically
sensitive; and I think it is great that he (and others) share in educating each
other on this list; before I got on the list, I think I was getting a little
brainwashed by doctors and dentists who were trying to get me to take
dmps without educating me on the dangers of
it. Incidentally, a friend of mine took
numerous shots of dmps; at first seemingly with no
apparent side effects (except one time she collapsed on the floor and couldn't
get up for two hours; she attributed that to having the dmps
too close to an amalgam replacement).
But about a year into the dmps treatments her
entire health
profile deteriorated significantly. So I much appreciated what I learned here and
what negative results were probably avoided.
The oxygen topic is very relevent;
and while HBOT does not appear to be in my near future, I've tried to take
Ray's advice once again and go for short walks in the fresh air as much as
possible; and yes it is one of the most healing things you can do, it seems. In
addition, I've mentioned numerous times here
about how drinking kefir daily is incredibly
helpful for the candida problem, and highly recommend
it! Especially if you can get your hands
on raw milk and make it raw, not pasteurized; the instructions are available in
a booklet called The Magic of Kefir, by Donna Gates. Also she wrote an excellent book
called The Body Ecology Diet; I have finally
gotten to the point where I am practicing her food combining recommendations as
much as I can (it takes some discipline); and am finding excellent results in
improved digestion, significantly less bloating, and calming of some autoimmune
stuff, such as eczema, and better attitude. I know this diet isn't for
everyone; people with
food addictions may look at it and say, "I
can't do that" ; but I think it is worth looking at and trying to move
one's diet into the direction that the book describes. the premise is that
shifting your body's ph to the desired ph level through diet will help to heal
many autoimmune problems and candida problems.
Also I
went through a period of serious sensitivity to hot and cold in some of my
teeth where amalgams were replaced with heliomolar. After a second replacement with heliomolar that didn't help, I got a cerec
II crown put on the worst tooth; initially I didn't think that was helping; but
over time, and
with tmj treatment, it
has calmed significantly and is barely a problem anymore. And finally I have to
say that I take numerous supplements on the recommendations of an
orthomolecular biologist and I think it has helped a lot (have been doing that
for 3 years). Especially important for me have been
antioxidants, including grape seed extract (used to get
terrible nosebleeds often; knock on wood; haven't had one probably in 8 mos), vit E, CoQ10, vit C (really helps calm my allergic reactions). Also essential fatty acids such as flax/borage
oil seem crucial to keep down the inflammation and nerve and joint
pain, as well as help the skin and hair. Ginkgo seems to have helped the brain fog a
lot; I have read that a 12 week course is recommended before one decides
whether it is helping or not. Others
that have helped me: Calcium, magnesium, zinc, molybdenum, glutathione, B6, and
folic acid. Kyolic garlic liquid and a good
acidophilus (I take Dr. Dophilus; it is supposed to
survive
the stomach acids well) have helped the candida problem, as well as an herbal product called Kolorex (it's an herb called pseudowintera
colorata).
Took B12 shots for a while and it helped a lot with my energy level and
fibromyalgia
pain. Then
after several mos. at one shot a week (5cc) my eyelids started to twitch and
then I started getting severe terrible pain from them at the site of injection
so it was time to stop. Luckily my
eyelids stopped twitching; so I guess that is one that has to be used
cautiously; as Ray has indicated.
I have
found the
recent comments about chlorine and taurine
interesting; ever since I have been seeing the orthomolecular biologist, who
uses something similar to a Vega machine in treating his patients, he has had
me taking taurine, and I swim regularly in a chlorinated pool. He also feels taurine
is helpful in detoxing
mercury. He has also had me on various
amounts of selenium; a lot during and shortly after the amalgam replacement;
currently just 200 mcg a day.

I agree with you that mercury is a major
factor in allergies. I had rashes on my hands for almost 40 years ( a real curse for a nurse) , as soon as the mercury was
removed I had no further problems. I can also attest to seasonal allergies( including asthmatic symptoms) which were greatly
reduced. There
is no question in my mind ,I learned first
hand, what had caused a lot of my problems. Depression was also radically
relieved, such that I haven't been bothered since.
Good health, Marilyn

******************************************************
I believe we have so many detox
failures because the treating physician doesn't realize how sick the person is
and trys
drastic measures to detox the person before their
system is ready to handle such. Detox (is a
slow process) should be a gradual procedure beginning with building up the
person's immune defenses by strengthening their weakened organs first... I did it this way and many of my allergic
& chemical sensitivites beame
a thing of the past.
To my
knowledge, I was taught that Mercury depletes Sulfur in our system. Sulphur is needed for all our systems to function. That is
why so many systems become affected. I'm
sorry you had a bad experience with sulphur. I would
question if you aren't an exception to the rule. I know many people who have improved by
eating sulphur based foods. I've presently been
prescribed MSM a sulphur basd
product in conjunction with Vit C.(
the vitamin tends to enhance its action). I also was previously given 7 DMPS
injections and as many EDTA treatments during my
recovery period and I certainly felt they were advantageous. One of my treating
doctors did emphasize that we can not detox too fast
or we can get into serious trouble. A
good doctor acquainted with the benefits of homeopathic remedies was very
valuable in my case because he was able to draw the
various metals out in a gentle manner which didn't overtax my cardiac system.
Another thing this doctor insisted upon doing, was to
build up my immune system first, before even attempting to remove the metals. I
found Cilantro is another product excellent for the brain.
I was very blessed having been led to the
right doctors at the right time. Detox cannot commence until all the metal has been removed
from the mouth. REMOVE THE SOURCE FIRST. Marilyn

I'm 51 now, and had amalgams since I was 12.
I remember to have
irregular heartbeats when I went to bed since I was
20. This happened during my whole life and was a source of uncertainty and fear
for my existence. I studied medicine and thought maybe its
from imagination as all medical students have. But I never was sure I had no
severe heartdisease. In 1995‑1996 I have all my
amalgams removed for composite and started decontaminate myself from mercury
what I still do. Since 1996 the irregular heartbeats stopped and never
returned. My insecurity about my heartfunction and
about my life ended also. My impression was that the constant flow of poisonous
mercury‑ions caused the improper function of the sinus node in the left
atrium. The mercury had poisoned my nerve‑system during 30 years of my
life, that's
what I'm almost sure of. Hans de Jonge

I have
a daughter who was diagnosed as having "acute PMS"
, depression, hysteria, paranoia and others. She was borderline suicidal when
she was introduced to Hal Huggins book.
She made the decission to have her mouth cleared of amalgams. She had 18 amalgam fillings of varying
size. She went through a short detox of about six months.
This was three years ago.
Results:
She and her family much prefer her current personality. Her depression, hysteria and paranoia have
[as far as I can observe] disappeared
totally. Is this because she
wanted to get better and it's all in her head???
I
don't know. The fact that she is
'apparently' much healthier and void of all the other bad symptoms is enough
for me to say that removing the
amalgams had a positive effect
regardless of whether psychological or biological

Ten
years ago I had two large amalgams placed.
Within a year I couldn't remember what I was in the middle of doing. It
was hard to balance a check book; balancing the books for a regional
organization I was treasurer of was incredibly frustrating.
After being hospitalized, having the amalgams
out and being treated I was able to return to grad school. I'm finishing a master's in public
administration (3.95 gpa)
and starting a PhD in economics. HUGE improvement.
However, it has been a tremendous struggle financially, emotionally and
mentally.

Seven years ago, after a long period of
problems I was sent to an oral surgeon to have my gums cut back. I had large, bleeding pockets, 7, 8, & 9
mm pockets, in my mouth with substantial bone loss. On a hunch, I skipped the surgeon's
recommendations for immediate surgery, and found a mercury-free dentist. As a last resort I had all of the metal in my
mouth removed and replaced with plastic composite fillings and ceramic
crowns.
You may have guessed that my gums healed up
immediately after the new restorations were placed. The bleeding stopped. No more anesthesia
before hour-long scalings. No more scalings,
period. Not only do I still have my teeth (much to my surprise and the
dentist's chagrin) but the irritated gums around the teeth and extraction sites
have healed nearly entirely. The big
pockets are now 3, 4 & 5 mm in size.
My teeth are also much whiter and cleanings take about 10 minutes. The hygienist is astounded.

The Mayo Clinic has told us,
"...an allergic reaction would typically
result only in redness, soreness
or other problems around the tooth with the
filling. It wouldn't cause a
disease that affects widespread areas of your
body." <A
HREF="http://www.mayohealth.org/mayo/9708/htm/2ndop_1.htm">Mayo
Clinic</A> (1997) That statement
could surely explain my buccal response to
amalgam removal. However, I do have diseases encompassing
widespread areas
of my body.
The diseases I am suffering from, CFIDS,
Systemic Candidiasis, Fibromyalgia, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, numbness and tingling in the extremities (Dx: MS in 1997 by brain MRI and symptomatology,
refuted in 1997 by spinal tap) and many others, not serendipitously, represent
the common suffering of 90 - 100% of the members comprising the 3 Internet
lists of anti-amalgamists that I associate with. Literally hundreds of us have banned together
on these lists, having found relief from years of untold suffering with these
common symptoms only through the removal of amalgam fillings, subsequent heavy
metals chelation, and/or the rebuilding of our ruined
health through nutrition and supplementation. The symptom picture is undeniably
clear, and clinical and anecdotal evidence abounds.
The thing that's really helped me of late
is lipoic acid chelation

of my MS symptomatology and other stuff too.

My sister‑in‑law had a serious
case of CFS (emphasis on had) for over 9 years. She could not work at lot of the time and
was virtually totally disabled. She sid
she had chronic fatiuge, muscle pain, affected by
chemicals, felt like she had the flu all the time. Had to sleep a lot. She went to numerous doctors and tried even
more "cures" to no avail. Two years ago she had her amalgams removed
but at first noticed no difference.
Then she started using a greens formula again, but the first time had
made no difference. She gradually
started feeling better, gained about 25
badly needed lbs., and the rest of her
symptoms also disappeared.
I can't say for sure that the amalgams were the cause, but by removing
them it
at least seemed to
give her body the edge she needed to fight off the CFS.

my situation is much better than before I had
my amalgams replaced. There was another
bad period, in August, but at this point (approximately 15 months after amalgam
removal) the heart symptoms have almost disappeared, most other symptoms are
improving a great deal, and energy levels are much more satisfactory - though
still far from normal. I'm definitely going in the right direction and am beginning

could these psychiatric illnesses be caused by

I've had clinical depression all my life,
I've taken Prozac and Wellbutrin for years (I tried a
couple of others as well). Now after
mercury detox almost all of my depression has gone.
I had 14 amalgams in my mouth and I also
suspect that I was also exposed to mercury at a very young age through
industrial contamination of my fathers clothes. He
used to come home from work with an oily smell on his clothes and I think he
was contaminated by an oil he used at work that
contained
mercury.
I had my amalgams all out using a dentist
friend of mine in Mexico City (it also cost allot less). After having them
removed I did feel better, but, It took me 8 months or so to realise I needed professional help and chelation.
I've had 9 treatments with DMPS and can only
say that the affect has been almost miraculous. There are numerous symptoms
disappearing, some I didn't even know I suffered from such as slow
walking. I walk 3 times faster now and
have to consciously think about slowing down. The other day I ran up a huge
flight of escalator stairs at the train station. I could not do this
before chelation. I can
only think that my muscle chemistry has changed some how with the lessening
burden of mercury in my body. I type allot faster than I did before, which, is
particularly important considering I'm a computer programmer. I could go on and
on, but, the depression is the big symptom that's gone. I know this sounds
corny but, there has been such a change in my personality that my wife has
fallen in love with me all over
again. She has noticed a huge change in me since chelation started, and that's from her telling me, not me
asking her.

by YM, Ibaragi City, Japan, 28 years
old. Feb.'96
Now that I am finally free from the
itching that almost drove me crazy, my everyday life is cheerful, joyous, and
comfortable. I am filled with happiness and gratitude. But, to be truly honest,
I still feel vexed and angry about what happened to me.
In the winter when I was 19, I all of
a sudden started to itch all over my body. It was really abrupt. I literally scratched
myself from head to toe and to the extent that there was no spot left
unscratched. My skin was smeared with blood. My condition seemed hopeless. I
had no idea that amalgam, used in my dental treatment when I was 17 years old,
was the cause of my condition.
My neighbour
introduced me to Dr. Kohdera and my painful struggle
with atopic dermatitis started. Dr Kohdera was very
different from the other doctors I knew. He was really enthusiastic, and told
me:-"If you find the cause of your problem, it will surely be cured."
Hearing this, I made up my mind to follow him no matter what. Back then my skin
was in the worst possible condition, so crumbled up and raw that a patch test
was impossible. The result of a blood test (Lymphocyte Proliferation Test) showed
that I was highly allergic to dental amalgam.I was
immediately referred to the Osaka University Hospital to have my dental
fillings removed and I waited to see the result.
I had the amalgam fillings removed
from my teeth, was careful about mites and what to eat, used alkali ion water,
was careful about cleaning the house, looked at every aspect of daily life in
connection with atopic dermatitis, hoping that I would be cured. I was slowly
getting better but couldn't quite forget about itching and every day was
painful..
Then one day I had a terrible
toothache. One year and eight months prior to this, I had my amalgam filling
removed to get rid of the cause of the atopic dermatitis, but the teeth were left
unfilled since there was no dental material fit to use (in order to prevent
allergic symptoms), and those teeth developed cavities! I went back to the same
dentist who had removed the amalgam filling and had an Xray
of all my teeth. Then, two amalgam fillings were discovered in my mouth that
had been believed to be amalgam free! Since they were my wisdom teeth, I had
them extracted. But the discovery was shocking. Two months after the
extraction, my skin became amazingly smooth. It was as though the bad substance
was draining from my body. The pain that had haunted me day and night was
suddenly lifted from me and I could sleep like a baby and get up feeling fine.
It was such a quick recovery that I wondered if I really did have atopic derinatitis after all. The better I got the more I realized
that the biggest cause, after all, was the two amalgam fillings forgotten in my
teeth. As I realized this, I wanted an apology from my dentist, who overlooked
those amalgam fillings.
I am really happy that I met Dr Kohdera*, who gave me constant support regardless of my
condition.

I was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis, which is
an inflammation of the bladder wall. I had my fillings removed about 2 months
ago, and slowly, my entire body is going back into order. All my fatigue,
depression, stomach problems, and other symptoms are disappearing. My bladder
is getting better day by day and I am 100% confident that over then next year I
will become competely healthy. I am taking very good
vitamins and natural chelators so I think that is
helping. I can almost feel hte metal moving through
my body, especially in my neck.
. I know that my kidneys have been effected, which are
very closely linked to all of the urinary functions. I also know that a lot of
urinary problems can lead to infertility in some people. So I really think that
somehow all of this can be linked to the reproductive system.
Also, another huge thing that is slowly correcting itelf in my body is my hormone function. My
hormones were sooooo
disrupted...excessive sweating, body odor... and now that has all gone
away too. . Removing my fillings has saved my life. In
fact, even mt allergies are starting to go away, and
I was allergic to everything!!

I can testify to the Crohn's disease and MS disease and relief of same after amalgam replacement and zapping. . In my experience, when a doctor admits that the diseases are no longer found {CURED}, they will not admit it; but prefer to say that there must have been a mistake in diagnosis. I shrunk a nodule on my lung with the zapper and herbs in 1995/6. The last two xrays showed NO nodule. When I asked the doctor about the preceeding 5 or 6 xrays over a period of a year, he said, "they must have been mistakes!" HAH.
]I had a great deal of pain in a breast. Cancer?
We'll never know because I learned to zap each breast. There are specific
instructions. A few hours of this zapping and I've not had the pain since. You
can even zap your entire spine. I did, and I truly believe the MS symptoms
began to dissapear then. Gradually, all MS symptoms
were gone. My last exacerbation was about one year ago. Maryellen "Jack and MaryEllen

but does a dedicated job. All I know who get the job done by him get well
almost immediately.I have been relieved of about
thirty ailments which I attributed to old age.
The first things I noticed were my hearing in my
left ear opened up, dizziness left and the allergy to dish soap is gone. I can
now wash dishes without wearing rubber gloves.
I have counted about 32 ailments that have left me with getting dental
revision.
My husband has been blessed to receive
treatment from the Metal Free Dentist too. The first things we noticed
about my husband was good skin color returning within
a few hours. the relief from a 6 year rash that had
been making him miserable. we both have energy now
which came back within the day..Our memories are good now. We just feel an all

Now our daughter is going through revision.All of us found immediate relief at the first
visit and after each visit we got even better.

I wish to report adverse reactions to
mercury amalgams. I believe there are loads of people out there who have had problems
with mercury amalgams which maybe never get reported. So, I would like for you to know that I am a recovering mercury patient,
having been diagnosed with "toxic effects of mercury", in Fall of 1998 after
consulting with and being tested by multiple
health care people. At the time, I had multiple health
problems including chronic pain, neurological, immunological , gastrointestinal,
hormonal and other difficulties, all of which
had been developing over a period of years. I had no significant source of mercury other than
many many mercury amalgams, acquired over a
lifetime. After extensive treatments
to remove the amalgams, detox the body and such‑ the road to healing from mercury is long and
arduous‑ I
am doing quite splendidly now, moving
along nicely on the path to robust good health.

I have had amalgam fillings ‑ 17 in
total ‑ for thirthy years now. Both my children
are very allergic to a lot of different foodtypes. No
one in both the families has ever had
food allergy. I have found out that my own medical
problems come from a mercury and lead intoxication, after a clever therapist
took a urine‑sample and tested it for heavy metals.
My complaints: a heavy tremor, loss of concentration, headaches,
lessened
eye‑sight,
tachycardia (about 20 bpm increase in rest) and
depression.
I now wear glasses, and I have started
a detoxification program. It immediately
improved my concentration and I was less
depressed, and was able to work a bit
better than I had
done before. I am on sick leave for 20 months now, and have

months of complete sick leave because of my
"unexplained"
medical condition. I have plans to have my amalgams replaced.

I would like to state for the record that I am one of the increasing
number of people who
are becoming aware that their illnesses are directly attributable to
mercury poisoning from dental amalgam.
After many years of increasing symptoms and finally reaching a point of debilitation, it
took several years before I had tests and was finally diagnosed with severe mercury toxicity. I am now in the process of having all amalgams
removed and replaced. The symptoms I have suffered as a result of
mercury toxicity are severe fatigue, immune suppression, severe multiple type
allergies, severe dermatitis, hormonal disruption, breathing difficulty,
gastrointestinal problems including ulcers and disbiosis, low blood pressure, abnormal heart rhythms,
severe hypoglycemia, low thyroid, anemia,
anxiety and depression. I am now 53 years old. I see in my children now symptoms of mercury
toxicity‑‑due I believe to mercury toxicity which I would have
passed to them in utero and also through breast
feeding as well as due to that mercury they received from vaccines and, of
course, their own amalgam fillings. I am
seeing in my siblings
symptoms as well. The
critical point is that the amount and severity of the symptoms coincides with the amount of amalgam
fillings they have.

In 1985 I became life‑threateningly ill with no medical reason that any
doctor could identify. I had equilibrium problems, visual problems, weakness, memory loss,
concentration loss, stomach motility,
dizziness, kidney pain, urinary problems,systemic
yeast, breathing problems. I had to quit working. I could not manage to cross a
street, finally could not go up stairs in my own home.
At the age of 45 I was an invalid.. I made a
will. A friend referred me to a
nutritionist/biochemist. It was determined that my 16 amalgam
fillings, 2 of which had been placed
recently, were responsible. I had these fillings replaced by Herculite
composites. By the 3rd set of removals,
my eyes were no longer crossed for first half hour of each day.
By the 4th removals, my visual field problems disappeared. ONE HOUR AFTER
THE REMOVALS. I went back to work.

My son developed psoriasis a few years

outbreak occurred in relation to any major dental work, he replied he had a
root canal done and the psoriasis broke
out within a week or two after. He

the amalgam. When he had the root canal

toxicity and have urine
tests through Doctor's Data Laboratories that continue to show high levels of

shot of DMPS every month to rid my body of this extremely harmful substance. These high levels of mercury could ONLY have
come from the 18 amalgam restorations I
had for so many years (since replaced, at a cost to me and my father of $4000)) because I have had no other significant

My mother‑in‑law was 82 years
old in August 1992. For the past few
years, Medicare and private insurance
paid an average of
$10,000 for each of several 30‑day
visits to a psychiatric hospital.
In addition, they covered her weekly visits
to physicians and
a multitude of medication. Needless to say, as her caretakers, we have had some terrible experiences
and she became a tremendous burden.
In March of 1988, a tooth with a large
silver amalgam filling broke. The
filling was replaced with a composite. Within 24 hours her personality began to change. The difference
was so dramatic that
we decided to have her other two amalgam fillings replaced. ' She had less than $500 worth of dental
work. Now she only
needs to see a physician four times a year
and her medication has been reduced to
one pill a day. Her quality of life has improved and so has ours.
That $500 of dental work was not covered by
insurance or Medicare,
but it has saved untold thousands of insurance and taxpayer's dollars.

ALICE
KITSON Chronic Infections
For four years, Alice Kitson went from doctor to doctor, desperately searching for the key to what
she calls a living
nightmare. With infection after
infection, the health of the young woman ‑ a new mother with a toddler in
tow –
was mysteriously plummeting. She became
unable to care for her children; she couldn't drive; she
had to quit her
job. Alice, 36, became convinced it indeed was "all in her head,”
as some doctors suggested.
But she and her doctor believe her system
was poisoned by the tiny
amount of toxic metal mertury contained
in what she and 100 million to 200 million
other Americans have in their mouths: ordinary dental
fillings. So‑called
silver amalgam fillings, in use for 150 years, are 50 percent mercury. Alice had been
forced to quit the work she loved as a
rehabilitation facility director because she could no longer trust herself to drive, could not even
remember how she got to work.
"I was a couch vegetable," Alice
says. Some doctors blamed it
all on stress, but she had one sinus and respiratory
infection after another and her strength
waned.
"Can you imagine having strep for three
years?" Alice asked. Doctors
thought Alice had Epstein‑Barr.
A barrage of antibiotics further weakened
Alice's immune system. She fell prey
to a systemic yeast infection and developed allergic reactions to nearly everything in her
environment, including 85 foods.
After amalgam removal, Alice is gradually
resuming a normal life. She is driving
again but is not back to work. She must avoid perfume and cigarette smoke. She no longer needs allergy shots. She has
found some homeopathic remedies
helpful, but still tires easily.
"For three years, I felt guilty because my kids had a vegetable
mom...I used to say
I had bad days and worse days. Now, I have bad days and good days."
