Re: New to Group -- Post-braces Dental Wire O/T

[Guest guest]

Wow , I think we should compare symptomes and lifestyle a bit,

because we could be twins! I'm 25 and have almost exactly the same

symptomes as you exept for the IBS.

I also had braces for four years and have that dental wire thingy.

Did you still have amalgams during your braces phase? I did, and I

think that made the mercury leach alot more. My dentist tells me

never to take the wire out because my lower teeth will shift back,

but at this point, I dont care anymore.. sacrificing your

mental/physical health for vanity? pffff, if I would have known this

earlier, I never would have gotten the braces! That dentist also

messed up my mouth, and allowed 2 teeth to die without telling me so

I could take prevenative measures. And he was a high priced one! I

think we really have to research our dentists, and find out how much

they " know " before getting any work done.

I used to lift weights and was in really good shape as well as having

a very positive and happy outlook. I'm still in ok shape, but if I

lift heavy weights now, I sometimes feel as though I'm going to

passout or vomit. Also I've been really depressed *at times* for the

past 3+ months. I say at times, because it kindof comes and goes

like a black cloud. One day I'll be ok, and then whammo, I feel like

wrapping myself in 20 blankets and putting plywood over the windows!

lol

I have to say in all honesty that I can't be 100 % sure that mercury

caused this however, as we're all kindof pioneers here, and the

knowledge base regardless of what people say I think is kindof

experimental. SO my philosify is to REALLY take it slow, before

causing yourself more harm. I'm not even sure yet whether I'm going

to go through chelation yet. When I first started I hadn't done my

research yet and I began juicing cilantro and taking chlorella (with

my amalgams still in) I think this caused me more damage. And since

then I've had my amalgams out. I feel better in some ways (less

emotional numbness and anxiety attacks/general anxiety) but the

depression and fatigue has since gotten worse, and I tolerate

physical labour much less. Also I've had off and on feelings

of " unreality " and meaninglessness, which may be a passing phase

hopefully!

I'm also looking into doing everything else I can to make myself feel

better -before- chelation to see if that helps first. Like what you

said about candida, as that can cause many of these symptomes. Also

parasites, dental cavitations and infections. Liver and kidney

blockages too. Theres alot out there so I'm going to " take it slow "
