I'm going in for some heart testing on Friday, so hopefully everything
is fine there. I've been having extra palpitations lately, and I'm due
for another echo to see what my aortic valves are doing as I only have
2 instead of 3. Then I have to wear an Event monitor for a week.
Ugh! :-(

Hi again, Jackie, What do you mean...that you have ONLY 2 instead of 3 aortic valves? I thought most people have one! Margie :) ... wrote: Hi again... I'm...
Hi Margie,...the aorta has 3 valves called tri-cuspids, and I was born with 2 = bi-cuspids. I never knew about it until about 10 years ago, and when I did some...

Dear Margie, I really have to take exception to your statement below. If your only problem is related to Lyme Disease, then I am happy that you found a ...
Dear Dora, Very well spoken. I never had Lyme's, and as you say it could be dangerous for newcomers to believe that Lyme's and DD are connected, just because...
Hi Jackie -- I agree with you in that one pathogen or whatever cannot be the cause of everyone's problems nor should be touted as such. At the same time, we...
Hi Robin,...I'm a little baffled by the mercury fillings leaking theory. You would think if that was the case then everyone who cracks a tooth, or has any...
Jackie -- there are probably so many toxins we are all being exposed to, unfortunately. And mold is a big problem, too. Thank goodness when we can figure ...
When supposedly mercury leaking from fillings were making headlines, there were many people who spent thousands of dollars to have them replaced. I don't know...
Greetings! My sister just spent over $5,000 to get her mercury fillings removed and replaced with something else. It is actually more dangerous removing them...
But..that tells me the material isn't solid all the way thru? How can mercury be released? If that is true, then what about when a tooth filling gets cracked?...
Dear Jackie, Yes, the fillings are solid all the way through. But they have to be drilled out, I believe, which would aerosolize the mercury as it is being...

Hi Chris, the only reason I mentioned the Myasthenia Gravis was because of my high creatinine levels and the medical site I read said MG might be a cause. Plus...
Dear Jackie, There are many reasons why one's creatinine can be elevated. Two years ago, my creatinine went way up due to the combination of 3 medications that...
Yes, and the differences are even more fundamental than this. MG is a disorder of neuromuscular transmission. This is the interaction between motor nerves and...
