> So after all your trouble, is $40 worth learning about something that stands a strong likelihood of being at the root of it all? If so, buy the book Amalgam Illness by PHd Andrew Cutler. As long as that mercury vapor continues to absorb into your mouth and lungs everday, headed straight for the nervous system, causing every enzyme in your body to malfunction, on and on...well, I think it would be wise to learn more. Mercury upsets the whole tyrosine-to-catecholamine process, the whole tryptophan-to-serotonin process, clogs up receptor sites, kills cells, depletes vital glutathione, wreaks havoc with the HPA axis, adrenals, thyroids, and gosh, on and on and on. It is a merciless silent slow deceptive poison that does not spare any part of your biochemistry. Some people have genetically strong chelation biochemistry that keeps them safe enough, but many don't have those strong genes and succumb to the power of mercury.

> It has only gained a fairly solid body of scientific evidence in the last few years. About 50% of dentists still say amalgams are ok, though they are only repeating the party line and have zero proof. The other 50% will not use it. There are even dentists now who specialize in removing amalgams. I went to one. They know the danger. Heck, they even wear gas masks when doing the work. A profession with one of the highes rates of suicide is...dentists. Coincidence or fluke?

> With your long history, I could not begin to suggest meds, except for mailordering Milnacipran from overseas. Though its description sounds similar to meds you know, it is quite different. It even works for people who failed ECT, like me. But I would indeed strongly suggest getting those amalgams out ASAP from a dentist that does it correctly (gas mask, charcoal in your mouth, suction in your mouth, throat dam, face mask). There is only one thing worse than amalgams. That is having them removed carelessly, where you would receive a massive dose.

> I cannot say amalgams are definitely the guilty party here because I am not God. But as a human, I say yes, they are the guilty party. There is no other single greatest threat to your mental and physical health than those shiny things on your teeth. You need not look any further or try to make it any more complicated than it is. It is very clearcut and simple.

> Just for grins, type in "amalgam mercury vapor video" and check that out. And get the book. And do a search for the proper dentist. Even while waiting for the book, make the appointment. If you change your mind, you can always cancel. The book will explain things in medical scientific terms, but readable by a layperson, and is loaded with scientific proof and evidence.

Thanks for your feedback. I will look further into this, since at this point I am willing to consider just about anything, but I would really like to have the high levels of mercury confirmed by a blood test before doing something like this. My uncle suffers from debilitating migraines and had all his amalgams removed some years ago. Result: no improvement at all in his condition.
