There are some zealots who think mercury amalgams are the worst thing since DDT (or whatever chemical use to be sprayed on vegies). However, I think many of you are wasting time and energy looking for a quick fix. I have never had a filling and I had a very bad case of CFS which is now getting better (thankfully).

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2000 Report Share Posted May 18, 2000 There is a test called the Clifford Test that you can have done to determine which fillings are compatitible with your body. It's a blood test; the lab is in Colorado. I had mine down two years ago and received the report that shows the ones both compatible and incompatible. There are hundreds of them. I had no idea.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Thanks Andy! I agree with you that Amalgam fillings may not be the cause at all cases. Actually I think that it is a cause at very little of the cases but it starts increasing our problems as the illness progresses and your liver can not remove heavy metals. Than we might turn out having mercury toxification in addition to CFS.How can our bodies which can not even eliminate the food preservatives or the fillers in supplements get rid of heavy metal. That is why I lately have started thinking about amalgam removal.I am brain storming. I would like to know your opinion. What do you think? Nil Mercury fillings > I do not wish to come across as being dismissive of those discussing the subject of removing mercury amalgam dental fillings, but as a sufferer of CFS/ME from March 1985 onwards, the absence of mercury amalgam fillings from my teeth has not made any difference.

Very simple, I have never needed, and never had any dental fillings in my life to date, therefore it cannot have any influence on my ME/CFS either as a trigger factor, or for continued symptoms. > This does not mean that mercury amalgam is 100% safe and poses no risk, but I cannot see why it could be responsible for causing CFS/ME, other than to present another toxic burden.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 I believe that one of the main risks with mercury as a poison is when it's presented in liquid form so that mercury vapour is present and inhaled. In addition, it would appear that in a similar manner to many toxic metals, it's a chronic build up or exposure that presents a serious problem. If my memory serves me correctly, the major risk of poisoning form mercury amalgam fillings is when mercury vapour is present. For obvious reasons, that is being in the mouth, it provides a direct input into the respiratory tract for mercury vapour to enter. What I do not know is whether mercury amalgam fillings are able to produce vapour when fitted, or whether it may only occur during dental procedures. According to the British National Formulary, mercury poisoning is reversed by using one or more drugs called Dimercaprol, Penicillamine, and Sodium Calciumedetate. Apart from Penicillamine, they are delivered using either intramuscular injection, or intravenous infusion. I can only suggest that you have a test for traces of mercury poisoning to see if it's presenting a problem, and possibly have your dental fillings checked to see if they are still intact. If, for example, you do show signs of mercury poisoning, and your fillings are not intact, then a combined approach of removing your fillings and detoxifying your body may be a valid approach. As a result, I can only recommend that you seek professional medical guidance since it is probably relatively easy for the necessary tests to be performed. I hope this helps since mercury poisoning, if present, can be dealt with thereby reducing a toxic burden, but please remember that, from personal experience, the process of surgery including dental procedures can be stressful and can add stress to a body already trying to deal with CFS/ME.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Obviously none of us knows what factory mercury has. Is toxicity a side effect of CFS, or one of the factors? I am pretty certain not everyone with CFS has mercury toxicity. However, the fact that you have no fillings does not mean that you don't have mercury. I was under this mistaken impression for a long time too. However, some people with no fillings still have high levels of mercury. Mercury can be passed from the parents to the fetus, it can come from eating fish, it is a byproduct of burning coal, it is prevelent in mining camps, some people played with mercury from thermometers as children, etc. The picture is complicated though by the fact that it is very difficult to measure mercury within tissues where it is causing harm.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Doris, I'm sure you didn't mean to leave out innoculations. That's one way all of us have gotten mercury. And before Neosporin, we all used Mecuricrome and Merthiolate for cuts and scrapes. When I was in high school, a classmate with beautiful skin shared a beauty tip with me. She used to put Merthiolate on her pimples. That night I dabbed Merthiolate here and there, anywhere there was a blemish. Pretty soon it was all over my face. I woke up the next day with white infected puss-like sores all over my face. On another occasion, just to test my reaction, I put some Merthiolate on a small smoothe piece of skin inside my elbow and broke out with white sores the same way, so I knew that mercury was bad for me long ago. Whenever any medical personnel has asked me what I was allergic to, I'd say mercury, but that never stopped them from giving me shots. How would I have known what I was doing to myself? I still got " silver " fillings after that. I personally think that 20 years from now (I hope it doesn't take that long) we'll realize that mercury is responsible for a lot of things. I know it's hard to know what comes first, the chicken or the egg, or the mercury or the CFS, but how many years have dentists been using mercury? And how many years has it been used as a preservative in shots? So CFS and other immune-type diseases (or groups of symptoms) are a product of our generation(s) and so is mercury and probably other toxins that are put in animals and food. But since mercury is supposedly the most toxic, I think it causes an awful lot of harm. I don't know how we can ever prove cause and effect though.

IMHO, central to CFS pathophysiology is indeed neurotoxicity due to toxins which either are being generated too fast or not being eliminated fast enough/properly. Maybe it doesn't really matter what the exact nature of the toxin is, the end result might be CFIDS--a condition of 'brain injury' due to longterm exposure to toxins (whether internally or externally generated). So in this view then I think it stands to reason that eliminating the sources of toxicity which are amenable to such elimination is a good working strategy. It's very hard to eliminated the normal toxicity of the gut and the mouth but it is possible to rid the body of toxic heavy metals.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2002 Report Share Posted February 19, 2002 > Nil wrote: > > My dentist says that she does not use anaesthetics > > as she is using high speed driller. My understanding of this is that the greatest risk is from mercury vapour produced by the drilling. If you breathe in mercury vapour a very high percentage (can't remember, 50%?) of it ends up in your bloodstream - bad news especially if it gets in your brain. Unlike swallowing it e.g. a chunk of filling - which isn't so effective a way for mercury to be absorbed. When the dentist is drilling an amalgam, mercury vapour is produced by the heat from the drill. High-speed drills heat the mercury more, causing more vapour. So low-speed drills are better. And best of all would be a dentist who first chips out as much of the filling as possible with hand tools before doing any drilling - though finding a dentist who does that is nigh on impossible. Unfortunately almost all dentists use high-speed drills, so you probably won't have a choice about it. I managed to find a dentist here in the UK who does low-speed drilling but I was still very ill afterwards, I think from breathing mercury vapour.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2002 Report Share Posted February 19, 2002 Anwar, I can confirm, to the best of my knowledge, some industrial chemists including toxicologists have stated that mercury vapour is the highest risk factor in terms of toxicity and absorption. This is why products containing liquid mercury are handled with such care since a spillage of mercury will result in the release of some level of mercury vapour. In addition, the application of heat will move the mercury closer towards its vapour state, hence the use of heat generated by friction, such as must happen when drilling unless a coolant is used, will present an increased risk of mercury vapour being present. Please note that if the work on mercury filling removal can be carried out in a manner where all traces of amalgam including vapour can be drawn away, all the better.

I must continue searching.Thanks..Nil My mistake was to follow my dentists advice re. number of fillings replaced in one go. I didn't agree to exactly what he wanted (4 at the first appointment) but I was persuaded to have two large ones replaced and it was a mistake - too toxic. With hindsight it would have been better to begin with one small one as a test. I've still got 3 left and am leaving them there!

Yes. I think a good dentist will use a lot of water for cooling. > Please note that if the work on mercury filling removal can be > carried out in a manner where all traces of amalgam including vapour can be > drawn away, all the better. My dentist used a high-powered suction unit for removing vapour plus separate air supply for me to breathe through a nose-piece. But even with good precautions some mercury will still get absorbed :-( Anwar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first dentist is a friend of Hal Huggins, visits him in the US and uses some of his protocol - separate air supply for patient, high powered suction but unlike Huggins no rubber dam. I had an adrenalin-free aneasthetic. > how sick were you? I had more neurological symptoms - pins and needles all over, brainfog, more strange *physical* feelings in brain, a lot more fatigue, constant headache and felt sick and posioned. I wasn't sure why having those two removed made me more ill, I wondered if it was the anaesthetic or not having a rubber dam. So a few months later I saw a second dentist and had one very small filling replaced with a rubber dam in place and no anaesthetic but I had the same symptoms though not as severe (presumably because it was a smaller filling). Again the symptoms lasted about five weeks and mostly faded after about 4 months but I think I have more brainfog now than I would have had if I hadn't had the fillings replaced. I assume it's the mercury that made me more ill and am not having any more amalgams removed while I still have ME which in my case is probably viral. I don't believe mercury is the root cause of my ME, but that the ME has made me unable to cope with mercury from dental treatment in the same way that I can't tolerate lesser toxins - perfume, paint fumes etc. > Did you do chelation afterward, how long ago was it, and have you had any > improvement since having it done. I didn't have chelation, neither of my dentists prescribed it. Also I read a lot on the " metals " and " Amalgam " lists by some quite knowledgeable folk that chelation isn't a good idea immediately after removal. IIRC it pulls mercury out of organs, body tissue, wherever it has been deposited over many years, and into the bloodstream which isn't helpful at a time when you've more mercury anyway in your bloodstream from having had fillings removed. Drug chelation e.g. DMSA isn't available in the UK and I decided not to try chelation supplements like alpha lipoic acid until at least four or five months after having all my amalgams removed which didn't happen as I still have some left in. hth best wishes Anwar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
