Thanks Sheila Hi Sheila It is possible that you have a trigger-point/muscle related problem referring this symptoms there. This is a common response after the trauma of lying with your mouth open at the dentist, and of course the poison mercury moving through that lymph system. Find a physio/gentle chiro that uses craniosacral work and acupuncture/dry needling and have some manual work done before you get overtly concerned.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 ..Sheila. Yes, I know this feeling. For the first two years of chelation, I would get what I described to myself as a strange " hot/cold " feeling on the skin. It's still difficult to describe, but it felt as if it was burning, and yet the air felt cold at the same time. Since it came and went with chelation, I just put up with it, but it's clearly an effect of mercury. One of the major eliminatory organs is our skin, and that's a place where you end up with a lot of the metal; so it makes sense that you would have strange sensations there. A related problem I have is that my beard feels strange either at the end of a long chelation round, or if I haven't chelated for a while. I find myself constantly rubbing my open hand against the coarseness of it, or sometimes pulling hairs out one by one to the point of soreness. It's unpleasant as all hell, but given that the " ben-gay " felling, as you call it, is now gone after 2 1/2 years, I'm assuming the beard problem will go too. (By the way, they have a psychological " diagnosis " for this hair pulling thing - " tricotillomania " . Another case of dumping anything they don't understand - or want to understand - into the " psychological " category. Morons - at best.)

It has left the left part of my head. I now have a tingling sensation on my forehead that will not go away and it is driving me crazy. It feels not only tingling but sorta like a ben-gay cool type of feeling if anyone knows what I mean. Any ideas -I have been taking aspirin, pain meds- nothing takes it away.
