This is a simple blood test called MELISA. I have written an email to find out how much it costs. Here are some links to information about it:http://www.melisa.org/ms/msmetalallergy.htmlhttp://www.melisa.org/http://www.cfsn.com/melisa.htmlhttp://www.melisa.org/test/pretest.htmlhttp://www.melisa.org/test/index.htmlhttp://www.melisa.org/archive/bloodship.htmlFrom the websites above:"MELISA® Test. Melisa is presently the only objective test in our awareness that provides direct evidence for illness caused by exposure to mercury and other dental metals. Lymphocytes don't lie or imagine, they swell up and multiply when stimulated with the metal or pathogen they are programmed to remember.MELISA stands for "Memory Lymphocyte Immunostimulation Assay", an "in vitro" test for metal allergy. What MELISA provides is a reliable, objective means for determining individual immune system sensitivity to specific metals, and metal compounds.In the case of oral lichens, a causal relationship between dental mercury and pre-cancerous cells was demonstrated. MELISA showed a positive result in 72% of the patients against inorganic mercury. After removal of the mercury fillings, the

patient's oral lichens went away.The second study demonstrates a direct correlation between brain lesions visible under MRI and a positive MELISA response to dental metal in the mouth of patients meeting the strictest definition of chronic fatigue syndrome.The erosion of myelin, a substance that helps the brain send messages to the body, causes Multiple Sclerosis. Metal particles entering the body can bind to this myelin. For those who are hypersensitive, this myelin-metal bond comes under attack from the immune system. In such cases, removing the source of the metal can halt the progression of MS.The role of myelin is one of the few facts that those who study MS agree on. It is not known why the myelin is attacked - and what, if anything, can be done to stop this attack.The MELISA® Foundation has developed what we believe is a breakthrough in understanding MS: the link between metal allergy and the

erosion of myelin. We have also established that the myelin erosion can be halted if the source of the allergy is removed.We do not suggest that metal allergy is the only cause of MS. But anyone with MS can take a MELISA test to see if hypersensitivity to metals may be behind their condition.Already, we have seen MS patients make a partial and, in some cases, full recovery by removing the source of metal they were reacting to -often dental fillings."I don't know if this test is as good as the Challenged 24 hour Toxic and Essential Elements Test, if its better, or just different. I think the urine test will tell if you have mercury in your body. It is my impression that the Melisa test is an allergy test for metals.DuncanLearn more from those who have beaten MS, read testimonials: http:///messages/MS-testimonialsTo UNSUBSCRIBE, send blank message to: mscured- List Archives: mscured/messagesWeb Siteshttp://www.ms-diet.org/http://ourworld.cs.com/cah819http://www.ms-selfhelp.orghttp://CureZone.com/diseases/ms/http://www.naturalms.comhttp://CureZone.com/dental/http://www.btinternet.com/~mscentre.oxfordhttp://www.sensiblehealth.com/http://WaterCure2.comhttp://i.webring.com/hub?ring=multiplescleros1Success Stories:http://www.curezone.com/Dangerously_Healthy/http://www.wendys-ms-site.com/http://home.san.rr.com/iamshouse/http://www.megahits.com/healthy/page2.htmhttp://www.direct-ms.org/roger.htmlhttp://www.direct-ms.org/roger2.htmlHave a nice day !
