Re: Metal taste - getting worse/Resuming Chelation?

[Guest guest]

We've just uncovered amalgam under 3 of my 6 crowns & I'm doing very

poorly since those appointments, despite remarkable improvement

following about 16 rounds of chelation. Am I dumping mercury??? I

wasn't tolerating ALA with the crowns in place (thanks for the

recommendations, Dean & others) & it seemed to be dragging me back

through the very worst symptoms, even at doses of 1-2 mg. I can tell

by signs of excess salivation, tearing eyes, apparent resistance all-

around to my thyroid med, problems with infection & immune function,

poor digestion, loss of appetite, adrenal exhaustion, etc., that

something's going on. A round of Amoxicillin didn't help a resulting

ear infection & swollen lymph nodes along my jawline, so I'm going to

try resuming chelation in another day or two. It's a littling

unsettling to chelate, however, knowing some type of infection is

going on. Is it possible my immune system has launched a renewed

attack on an old, ongoing infection now that the amalgam and gold is

gone? Or did the series of dental work suppress my immune function?

If anyone has suggestions I should follow prior to resuming chelation,

please let me know. I've consistently stayed with all the

supplements, including arginine & lysine, cycling in some

echinachea/astragalas & extra C. Thanks,

Joanne

TK--- if you just removed amalgam you just had new exposure and

redistribution.

TK--- more likely

TK--- get rid of the infection first.

TK-- lots of other things you can take to boost your immune system -

I suggest you look into them to help get rid of the infection first.
