Guest guest Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 Hi All, I want to share this news with friends and family and fellow health seekers. As many of you know, I have suffered from emotional and memory problems for many years and was diagnosed four years ago with bipolar disorder. Yesterday I had 5 mercury fillings replaced. (I have 13 more to go.) I reacted so intensly from the exposure even though every precaution was made. I had my own oxygen to breathe, I had a rubber damm in my mouth, there was a vacuum to pull the air from my mouth area out of the room to be filtered, and there was some electromagnetic thing going on to pull any mercury that escaped all that up to the ceiling. After the proceedure, I couldn't think straight, and felt like I was in a dream. Eventually I felt like I was struggling to stay conscious. It was pretty bad for about an hour and a half until I got to my doctors office to get a vitamin C IV. About half way through the IV, I came back to myself. Then towards the end of it, they added some glutithione. Afterwards I had a manic high with 2 waves of uncontrollable crying. When I got home I took extra nutrition shakes, went to church, and then sipped vitamin C until I fell asleep. Today I have an intense headache, but mentally and emotionally doing better. I am so excited, mostly because I know for SURE now that the memory and emotional problems I've experienced the past 20years is a reaction to the mercury in my system...and that it is treatable. My doctor told me that he could assure me that I had mercury poisoning just from the number and age of the fillings in my mouth, and from the mercury gas that he measured in my mouth (7 times the OSHEA safety limit). He just couldn't guarantee me that the mercury was causing my mental problems. He has treated me from many different angles with nutrtional therapy including vit. B12 shots, hydrogen peroxide IV's for chemical poisoning, medications for systemic candida...all with little or no change in my mental status. His theory is that the fewer the toxins in the brain, the more effficiently it will work the way God designed it to. I am so excited (and a little scared) of what the future holds for me. I have three more appointments spread over the next 6 months to get the rest of the mercury out . Up until now, my prayers have been more geared towards.. " Lord, please heal me. Please show me where to go and what to do to get better so I can take care of myself and my family. " I spent each day struggling to accomplish the basic necessities for myself and my children, and continually apologizing for not being able to do what others thougth I should. Now it's... " Lord, show me how you want me to use the energy and mental capabilities that You are restoring to me. " The possibilities seem endless. I have this overwhelming sense of love and gratefulness... don't know if it is part of the mania from the mercury exposure yesterday, but I just want to scream from the rooftops that God has led me to this point and provided all the support I needed to get through every nightmare-ish step of the way through people that love Him, and are understanding and compassionate toward me. Because of that I give Him the glory for my healing. My gratitude extends to my doctor who stepped out of traditional psychiatry to better be able to help people like me, my dentist who risked more mercury exposure to help me knowing what it did to her and others like me, my counselor/friend of the past 13 years Beth Calvert, Reliv and all the people that worked with and supported me from a nutritional standpoint (especially Mark who also supported me through the withdrawal of the psychiatric medications), my friend Loretta who encouraged me to get back on track with God, and a bunch of people on the net that have been walking along side me through these past four years of intense illness. My gratefulness is so intense I can't put it into words. I want to do a happy dance and kiss and hug everyone both male and female, and the tears of joy of knowing this 20 year nightmare is almost over just keep coming. love, Marlena Mail Plus - Powerful.

I reacted so intensly from the exposure even though every precaution was made. I don't know, Marlena. In '84 I had all my teeth bonded and ended up with a smile like Farah Fawcett. It took 9 hours in the dentist's chair. They removed all metal fillings (some from the early 40's) , replaced them with white, and bonded my teeth. I walked out happy. I wonder how much of the paranoia is caused by the drugs. Sorry to be the grinch here, but all these problems were unheard of back then. Before they were advanced by the pharmaceutical community.......... Starris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
