Re: OT- (Dental) Pl. refer to Andy's Msg # 191623 on Autism-mercury group

He says it's not necessary to have cavitations done before chelation.

I have two cavitations. I have not had them fixed. I have been

chelating. My opinion is that I believe him. I do think from what I

have read that cavitations can be a source of infection and perhaps at

some point in time, it is worth looking into having them fixed because

this is a burden to your immune system. However, it's not necessary

for chelation. The general consensus on what I have read is that if

you go through chelation and complete it, and still find yourself not

feeling tip top, look into the cavitations. But you should not delay

chelation based solely upon the fact that you did not have them done.

If that makes sense.

My dentist actually recommended that I not have mine done at the time

of amalgam removal. Because my blood work and physical health

indicated that I would not heal well from the surgery and likely end

up with cavitations anyway after the surgery. The plan is to let me

detox and see how my health improves, and in a few years..I may be in

better health to heal properly from the surgery. By then I should be

done chelating.

There is an inherent risk in what we are doing. We should do our best

effort towards a _rational_ mercury detoxification and part of this

process is to realize what is our irrational and very human fear and

what are rational precautions.
