Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Yes, Kayla, I've had ALL my amalgam fillings replaced (back in 1991) and they are still in just fine. I had one dentist tell me they only lasted 3 year, but mine are going on 9 years now. My reason was for this. I had severe RA for 6 months then became pregnant (the RA then went into remission). My rheumy told me that within two weeks of having the baby, my RA would be back and not to get my hopes up. Once my son was born, I went in and had my fillings changed out. I stayed in remission for 8 years. Pretty good, I'd say. Now I'm on the Minocin, feel great, and am waiting for my next appt to see if he thinks I'm back in remission! I can't say there's a coorelation, but I think it's definitely worth the try ... plus they look better. God Bless, Debra Oh, yes, I had to call around to find a doctor willing to change them out. Most wouldn't touch the issue!

I have noticed that with the composite fillings that my teeth are sensitive for several weeks after they are " insalled " . The good news is that the sensitivity for me has always faded after a while. I also use Sensodyne toothpaste during these periods which really helps!

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Lynn, Very interesting! Tell Zev "Thanks" for me. Would you pass Zev info about www.ionicoasis.com? . . . They have a link to heavy metals testing to be done before doing the foot baths and afterwards . . . I suspect Zev would love to try them. Tell him to "Offer" $225 for their best model on ebay - rather than order from the website - if he decides to get one. There are chelation procedures to removed lead from the body. I'm surprized nobody has offered it to him. Hugs, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fish has a lot of mercury . . . That's why it's important to get cod liver oil from good sources. Even broken flourescent light bulbs leak mercury . . .

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Lynn ~ GEEEEEEEEEEEEzus ! Thank you for sending this to me. I have a mouth full, at least 7 teeth full of mercury, and several root canals............ I cracked about 10 teeth once during a 3 1/2 week migrane. Havent had the funds to fix them, I bet my mercury levels are out the roof ! I will request a test. I wonder if when I have the toxic boobies out if they can just do all my teeth at once while I am under and just recover from it all at once??????? hum I will ask......... No wonder I am such a " Political " mess ! ! Love DedeSee what's free at AOL.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 That is a huge possibility ~ Ya know I didnt know about the fossil fuel til I researched it the other day. Ya know we are all overloaded by environment before implants, and I bet that is why we hit rock bottom so quickly and so hard ! ! detoxing and limiting exposure is about the best we can do, and I am sure works better than anything else ! !

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Ya know, I wasnt sick as a kid either, but since all the oil spills, there is more mercury in the water, and in the air from car exhaust, gas is made of fossil fuels, so that would make us have an overload buy now because of all the more vehicles driving around useing fossel fuels and us breathing it. The fact that we get MCS from implants would also make it possible for us to have overload of any thing ~ See what's free at AOL.com.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Yes, and amazingly, I was never sick as a kid. I wonder what my mercury levels are now? It has been 55 years since then.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 I also played with mercury from a broken thermometer in my home as a kid! However, thermometers are filled with liquid elemental mercury, which is not the most toxic form of mercury, and exposure needs to be fairly lengthy before symptoms develop. Breathing mercury vapors would be worse. http://www.usgs.gov/themes/factsheet/146-00/ Toxic Effects The toxic effects of mercury depend on its chemical form and the route of exposure. Methylmercury [CH3Hg] is the most toxic form. It affects the immune system, alters genetic and enzyme systems, and damages the nervous system, including coordination and the senses of touch, taste, and sight. Methylmercury is particularly damaging to developing embryos, which are five to ten times more sensitive than adults. Exposure to methylmercury is usually by ingestion, and it is absorbed more readily and excreted more slowly than other forms of mercury. Elemental mercury, Hg(0), the form released from broken thermometers, causes tremors, gingivitis, and excitability when vapors are inhaled over a long period of time. Although it is less toxic than methylmercury, elemental mercury may be found in higher concentrations in environments such as gold mine sites, where it has been used to extract gold. If elemental mercury is ingested, it is absorbed relatively slowly and may pass through the digestive system without causing damage. Ingestion of other common forms of mercury, such as the salt HgCl2, which damages the gastrointestinal tract and causes kidney failure, is unlikely from environmental sources > > > > > > Gretchen, > > > > > > There are lots of enviornmental sources for mercury . . .

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Rogene ~ I cannot wait to have these implants out of me. I eat alot of fresh garlic, and drink the heck out of kefir. I wont be able to do the foot baths, and I dont think sauna either, because of my heart device. I was put on a fluid restriction and kinda go over some, but I have to be careful of fluid intake cuz of the heart failure and kidney disease. You know, they may both just get much better once my body isnt fighting these nasty implants ! ! I know eating so much of my food raw, and not cheating much helps tremendously. I will be getting some of those foot pads to try. I just have a very tight budget. I feel like I will be able to live again. I may have my challenges, but dont we all. I see me having another miracle of health.......That is my plan and I am sticking to it ! !

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Dede, I spoke with a scientist at the National Institute of Health a few years back. He told me that the diseases that our grand parents suffered from have, by large, been taken care of by modern medicine. However, because so few chemicals have been tested on people . .. even fewer in combination with other chemicals . .. and virtually none tested on children, NO ONE has any idea what is going on. Most of us here are like canaries in the mine . . . We react early . . . But if someone doesn't get serious about controling chemical exposures, everyone is in big trouble! . . . Including those laughing their way to the bank right now! The way I see it, we're born with the equivalent of an empty glass. Depending on genetics, some of us get bigger glasses than others. As we journey through life, the glass begins filling with an assortment of toxins that we accumulate. Eventually the glass starts running over just a bit (symtoms begin) . . . If we don't take action, stuff starts pouring out and we become sick - big time. Our goal in detoxing is to lower the level of toxins we carry around with us as much as possible. We can never eliminate them because we are continually exposed to more - in the air, water and food. . . Speaking for my self, as I've detoxed, I'm able to tolerate stuff that made me react terribly when I had implants. . . So I know it can be done! I think ionic foot baths are one of the best ways to get the stuff out quickly! . . . FAR infrared saunas are great too . . . along with lots of water, moderate exercise, healthy eating, etc. etc. etc. Hugs, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Dede, I used to work with this woman whose motto was " believe it and receive it " , so I think your vision of ballroom dancing is within your reach if you believe it will happen one day. My niece's future mother-in-law had melanoma, and after aggressive treatment failed she was given months to live, but then she started meditating and all the tumors started shrinking - and that was 20 years ago - and the cancer has not returned. If she can overcome those odds by meditation and positive thinking, why can't we? Actually a book is being written about her and it will describe the methods she used - I can't wait to read it.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Sis ~ That will definately be enlightening ! ! I know I will dance again. I have been a dancer since I was a tiny tot. The last time I danced was between when all my organs shut down and right before I had the heart device put in. The outlook was said to be very grim and I wasnt about to die without dancing with my son ! ! He had been salsa dancing for 2 years was known around town as a hottie that is a great dancer. I had never even seen him dance. So me and my sisters went to the club he always went to, and I salsa danced with him quite a few songs. It was the best night I had had in many years. He wasnt even embarrassed to be with me, dancing with an old lady..LOL I will do it again ! ! ! It is one of my passions. I used to jitter bug so salsa was easy, now I want to learn ballroom dancing ! ! Thank you for your encouragement ! I tell ya, I meditate very often, talk to God like he is beside me, and I use my mind to control certain things. The Silva Book of mind control changed my life, it is by Silva, and the Power of your Subconsious Mind by ph is awesome and so is Telepsychics: Tapping your hidden subconsious powers. also by ph . I cant tell you how much these things make my life so much better. That is so awesome about your neices future M n L ! ! How powerful ! ! I bet the book is an awesome read ! ! Let me know when it is out ! I am hoping that I will figure out a way to write a creative book from my adventure. I want it to be creative, eduational, and funny and emotional and informative in a way anyone could understand it. I have collected stuff for many years.....Since 1994.......I was so angry at first and was gonna write a very damming book, and I just couldnt do that. I am about life and feel good and humor, not gloom and doom, and anger. So, I never wrote it. But still have all he stuff to do it. We will see....... I cant wait to see what methods she used in her healing process. Nothing better than miracles and the stories behind them ! Thank you for sharing that ! ! Love DedeSee what's free at AOL.com.
