Re: Multiple Sclerosis / CCVSI

[Guest guest]

Hello again Carolyn,Thank you for your quick reply to my reply. : )I

have ALS and have done some fairly exhaustive research on ALS over the past two years. Often that research has spilled over into the realms of

MS, PD, Alzh's and other chronic conditions.Very early on in my

research I was wishing that I had MS and not ALS. Why? Because I could find an endless amount of MS patients who have recovered, whereas finding an ALS patient that has recovered was very difficult - they were

there, but very few in number. The research I did revealed definitive causes for MS and consequently, just as definitive recovery paths.I

have been using LDN since mid October last year. It has slowed the progression of my ALS down to the point where I cannot notice any progression at all. I am so thankful for

LDN, as it has not only bought me time, but the immune boosting effects

of it are also helping my general health. Like so many other people say, I wish I had heard about it sooner - or more accurately, I wish I had begun to take it sooner. I first heard of it in May of last year, but didn't think much of it's prospect to help me, as my brief attempts to look into it did not reveal any reasonable success with ALS. Yes there was plenty of stories for MS patients, but not ALS. It was only in late September when it was reintroduced to me and I also met a guy who had recovered from ALS after starting LDN, that I was prepared to look into it further and "take the plunge". And I am so glad I did! So

if you have already heard what I am about to say, I encourage you not to write it off too quickly, because what I will write is based on fact and not just "hear say".I could type here all day, but I will try to keep it as

brief as I can without keeping any info from you that may be important.It

is not much of a secret that mercury amalgam fillings have been suspected at causing or contributing to MS. But it is interesting to know that the first recorded cases of MS were in France in the early 1800's, not too many years after amalgam fillings were first being put in people's mouths - also, in France! The effects of mercury upon the myelin sheath is well known. Even the smallest amount of mercury will destroy it, if it is found in the right place. With your "tiny" fillings, please be aware that even the mercury vapor that DOES COME OFF even the smallest of fillings, is a 1000 times more than enough

to cause such damage. When that mercury is distributed around your body, if it finds a home in the "wrong" place, then you will have myelin

sheath damage. You have probably already seen the short Calvary Uni video on this

point, but if you haven't, you can view it here.http://commons.ucalgary.ca/mercury/As far as how much mercury vapor comes off an amalgam filling, if you haven't see that video too, you can find it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ylnQ-T7oiASo there is no doubt as to the potential of just one tiny amalgam filling causing problems, let alone a number of tiny fillings.Amalgam

fillings are made up of various metals - not just mercury. The amalgams used today are about 30-% mercury, but ones that were put in a few decades ago and before were around 50% mercury. You may remember or

be aware of the simple school project of putting a couple of nails in a

lemon and connecting them with wires to a globe to make it glow. This happens providing the two nails are made of different metals. Where you

put

two "dissimilar" metals in an acid environment (such as a lemon), it will form a battery, hence why the globe will light. The same goes for the amalgam fillings in your mouth, as they are made up of dissimilar metals and are in an acid environment (ie. your mouth), they form a small battery. You may have heard dental protocols for correct removal of these fillings involves removing the filling first that has the greatest charge - this is simply finding the filling that is making the strongest battery in your mouth and removing that one first, and so on.

So it can be easily seen that the existence of this battery that is being formed in your mouth can be easily confirmed by the measuring of its voltage.From your teeth and jaw area, there are large numbers of nerves that feed directly up into your brain. We all know that nerves in our bodies work by sending electrical impulses down them. So it can also be easily

understood that if a nerve is connected from your tooth and up into your brain and if that tooth is a battery (as discussed above), then the

voltage from that battery can be fed back up into your brain. The brain itself works on a lot of electrical activity with voltage levels super super small - so a "foreign" voltage coming from a tooth can have a

real detrimental effect upon the brain. Long time dental researcher in this area, Dr. Hal Huggins states that this charge being fed back up into the brain, is what is causing the brain lesions. As the minute current that is being fed up travels through the brain, its electric charge is attracting ionized water which causes the characteristic MS brain lesions. Dr. Huggins told this to the person who developed the MRI machine and his comment was something along the lines of, "we have never ever considered that possibility, but from what

you are saying, you may well be

right!"Dr. Huggins is convinced of this cause as he has repeatedly proven over and over again that when the amalgams are removed

properly, the lesions soon disappear. Another characteristic effect upon the body of MS is an increase in the spinal fluid protein levels. Once a person has been diagnosed with MS, then it has been seen

that these elevated spinal fluid protein levels will never drop down to

normal levels. Once again, Dr. Huggin's idea that amalgam fillings are a cause for MS has been well and truly verified through this elevated protein level phenomenon. For research purposes, Dr. Huggins has had MS patients have their spinal fluid protein levels measured before and shortly after amalgam filling removal. In every case, within a few days after the amalgam removal, the protein levels have dropped - something that the general medical fraternity say is impossible. In some cases,

again for research purposes, Dr,. Huggins has put amalgams back into the patients mouth and shortly after the protein levels went back up gain. The evidence is clear.I have a good friend who lives in South Africa who is 27 years old. A few years ago she was diagnosed with MS, having many classic symptoms and brain lesions. She found out about the amalgam connection and had hers removed properly. Today she is MS free. I have read story after story after story that are very similar. I am not saying that all MS is caused by amalgam fillings, but

I do believe that it is by far the major cause.I encourage you to also look at the following page http://www.hugginsappliedhealing.com/story3.php and also have a listen to this radio interview with Dr. Huggins where he goes into a lot of detail on this topic. http://www.oneradionetwork.com/index.php?option=com_content & task=view & id=858I

think that it is really good that you have had the "liberation" procedure done to treat the CCSVI. Many are claiming it to be the "cause" of MS - but I have much doubt about that. If we consider the question of why does someone with five amalgam fillings get MS when someone with fifteen amalgam fillings doesn't? Because we know the mercury will damage the myelin sheath, why doesn't that happen in the person with fifteen fillings as well? Our bodies face an onslaught of toxins every day and mercury is just one of them. If that mercury is not eliminated from the body, then it will end up being deposited somewhere in the body, usually in fatty tissue, such as nerves. Our body's mechanism to eliminate mercury could use channels such

as the bladder (urine), bowel (faeces), skin (sweat), lungs (breathe), eyes (tears), head (hair), etc. If however our bodies are not doing a good enough job at eliminating the mercury then it will gradually build up until it starts to become a problem and then (as Dr. Huggins says), "one day you'll wake up and you'll have MS."You said in your reply that you had a heavy metal toxicity test, but didn't mention what type of test that was. ALL

heavy metal toxicity tests are only advisory and are not an absolute measurement. I have seen it written in many places where (eg.) a hair test that shows low mercury, can also indicate that there isn't much mercury in the hair because the body is not doing a good enough job and eliminating it and is rather storing it in the body. There are many factors that influence why some people are poor

eliminators of heavy metals. It can be dietary related, genetic (eg. APOE gene), stress, or even CCSVI. If for example a person has amalgam fillings and every minute of every day, those fillings are leaching mercury vapor into that person's body. When that mercury cross the blood/brain barrier (BBB), the body will have mechanisms to try and remove it out again and eliminate it from the body. Obviously part of that mechanism is the return flow of the blood out of the brain. If those veins are partially blocked (as they are with CCSVI patients), then the body's ability to clear mercury out of the brain will be severely compromised. So it is not hard to see why SO MANY MS patients have CCSVI issues. Likewise it is not difficult to understand why so many MS patients have some level of recovery after the "liberation" procedure, as the body is finally able to get busy and start clearing out the build up of mercury in

the brain - the drain pipe has been unblocked!. So going back to my question, why does a person with five amalgam fillings get MS while the person with fifteen doesn't? Could it be because the person with five fillings has CCSVI and the person with fifteen filling doesn't

have CCSVI? Conversely so, I would suspect that there are hundreds of

thousands of people in the world who have CCSVI issues, but never get MS. Why? Well maybe because they don't have amalgam fillings as well?So

Carolyn, I hope I have not burdened you with this information. But I share it in concern and in that it may be a help to you and many other people. I am not a doctor, nor have had any sort of medical training (apart from advanced first aid), but as I said, I have immersed myself into a lot of research in this area and come to these beliefs and opinions based upon sound the research of those who are medically or

scientifically trained and those who are also living testimonies to the

negative effects of amalgams and also the health renewing redemption that the correct treatment protocol has achieved.If you do choose to go down the path of having your amalgams removed, I will add the following. 95% of dentists will tell you that they know how to remove amalgams properly. But I think in reality it would be lucky to be 10% that really do know. It's a case of "you don't know, what you don't know"! Your dentist that said that by removing the fillings you will introduce more mercury into your body, is obviously one dentist who

does NOT know how to remove them properly. On average, 32 micrograms of mercury vapor come off every filling every day. So, the real reply to your dentist's answer is, by leaving them in there, you will be introducing more mercury into your body -- EVERYDAY!If they are removed properly, there

is no cause for concern. There are a quite of number of aspects to the

proper procedure to remove amalgam fillings. SOME of them are - the use of a rubber dam, separate external air supply to the patient, high volume suction during removal, measuring of filling voltage charge and removal in correct order, high dose Vitamin C therapy during and following the procedure, replacement filings to be allergy tested against your body, etc. For people that have a high number of fillings that will take more than one dental visit to complete the work, the timing between the visits is also critical. So if you do go down this path, then I would encourage you to first become very familiar

with the safe removal; protocol so that when you find a dentist to do the job, you can go through the list and make sure that each one will be

followed. And don't let a dentist convince you otherwise, because many

will try. If you can find

a dentist who refuses to put amalgams in people's mouths, then you know

that he has a healthy respect to the dangers of mercury and may be the one for the job.I wish you well and good health. But if I can help in any further way, please do not hesitate to ask.Be well,-n

I have had polymyositis, and about 6 months after removing all

amalgams, I got considerably worse, bedridden. So, amalgams

without following a chelation protocol (I suggest Andy Cutler's)

may worsen some folks condition by far.

Regarding ketogenic diets. I have been reading _Honest Medicine_ by

Schopick. She discusses Alpha Lipoic Acid intravenous/ Dr. Burt Berkson, LDN,

and the Ketogenic Diet for epilepsy. I am finding it absolutely fascinating! Highly

recommended.

Found it interesting that just as I am

heavily into the part on the Ketogenic diet, it should crop up in the posts on

the list.
