I have been experiencing some digestion and constipation problems.
Has anyone tried Psyllium?  Does it work?  Is it safe and are there
any side effects?  Appreciate the feedback.

Thanks,
Littlegeneral

Has anyone used Saw Palmetto or Lycopene for Prostrate problems or
known someone who has?  Did they find it helpful?  Was there any side
effects?  Is it safe?  I am highly considering this because of all the
problems I am having with antibiotics. Appreciate the feedback.

Hi All,
      My doctor found blood in a stool test he did just a few days ago
and has me a little worried. He is now sending me to a gasteronologist
to run additional tests. The gasteronologist feels there could be
possible colon problems. I heard the word - colitis. What does this
mean? Could this be serious? I am really worried because previously I
was on meds for prostatitis. Is there some "natural" and safe
solutions to this. I hope no more antibiotics. I just can not deal
with side effects.

HELP,
Littlegeneral

Here is the URL of an excellent forum which has active members
willing to help those who want information about mercury amalgam
illness and "silver" dental fillings.

http://herballure.com/mercuryforum

Here is information from a new study we have now incorporated into
our HART Master Reference for NSP Products and into our HART On CD
computer program, located here:

http://herballure.com/Products/HARTMasterReference/index.html

http://herballure.com/Products/HARTOnCD/index.html


"Historically, experts theorized that vitamin E would increase the
effects of warfarin (Coumadin) by causing a deficiency of vitamin
K—a fat-soluble vitamin responsible for blood clotting. However,
in a recent double-blind clinical trial of 21 patients on chronic
warfarin therapy, no significant effect on prothrombin times (a test
that measures the clotting time of blood) was observed when 800-
1200mg of vitamin E per day was given. Researchers concluded that "it
appears that vitamin E can safely be given to patients who require
chronic warfarin therapy."8,26,33"

Of course, the typical physician won't hear about this research for
the next 10 to 20 years so if you ask them about taking vitamin E
with blood thinners, they will not agree for some time. It's much
like the situation with estrogen therapy. Alternative practitioners
have known about the dangers and lack of efficacy for 20 years.
Mainstream medicine has just recently caught up.

Mike if you're feeling like that I would see your doctor also.  Not
just your dentist.

And try and calm down otherwise you'll end up in a panic cycle and
just feel worse and worse.

See your doc and let us know if you had any luck with your holistic
dentist.  xx

Hiya agian,  yeah that's right.  I taste strong metal ALL the time!

And it's not 'healthy' metal taste if you know what I mean.  It's a
corroding kind of taste.  And boy have I been ill for some years
now.  Far too ill to work.  The best thing I can say it that
it 'tastes like science class' in school.  lol  That probably sounds
weird but I'm sure you get what I mean.  It reminds me of all the
mercury and chemical smells in science class.  So it probably has
gone toxic.


But I'm wondering if I've had a similar experience with contact
lenses as you.  When I was 15 I tried contact lenses for the first
time and my eyes went pink too.  Sort of pinky/red.  I've never seen
pinkeye so I don't know what that would look like but it sounds
similar to what happened to me.

But when I tried contact lenses again years later it was 'sensitive
eyes' solution and there were no problems.  I have no idea what the
saline was I used the first time round but perhaps it had a mercury
base to it too.  I was told at age 15 if I carried on wearing the
lenses I could go blind.  (??)  They never really said why but they
were worried that capilliaries would grow over my pupil too.  Very,
very odd.

But they did say they'd never seen eyes go so pink like that EVER
before.  So it sounds very familiar to me.

I'll read up on the links (if I can find them, lol).

Cheers.    xx Binks

ps - I had no idea it was mercury that was in silver fillings.  If
I'd know that I'd have had all the fillings taken out YEARS ago.
Mercury's POISON.  Are dentists totally mad??

You know how you're programmed from birth to detect poison in small
quantities?  Like, some things put you off because your body
automatically knows they're bad for you?

Well for years the taste of my fillings has been bothering me and
it's a constant nagging feeling in my head that they're bad.  But my
dentist, of course, said they were safe.

So now I want them out.  But what do I get put in instead of the
silver fillings?  And what is the most affordable?

By the way - when I had my wisdom teeth out I bled an awful lot and
I thought I had a constant infection making me feel so ill.  After
the teeth were out I got MORE ill, not less.

So I've been wondering if it's possible that the mercury in the
fillings somehow got directly into my blood stream with the huge
gaping holes I had from surgery.  (The surgery went a little bit
wrong and it took me three months to recover and for the gums to
close instead of three days.)

Any ideas?

Thanks for reading this.  xx Binky

Help if you need it. Help if you can.

Hi,

I had dental work done on 4/2 and have not felt well since. I believe
3 amalgam fillings were replaced with composites. My dentist is
holistic and said he will check me out today.

My symtpoms are:

Nervousness, anxiety, panic, rapid heart beat, legs feel weak and like
they're going to give in, arms feel weak/limp, tightness in chest,
astima, hard to sleep, dizzy, cant look at screen long, nausea, less
appitite, etc.

What canI do know to feel better? I have a family and I dont want to
lose my job.

Please help!

Tnx,

Mike

Subject: [amalgamillness] Re: Yes, this is for real

I am curious though, how many people on here who have "suffered"
through this are smokers ? I am but I have all the symptoms of dental
amalgam illness, I have fillings in my mouth and all the teeth that i
have that are bad are all fillings, now my gums are receeding though,
my doctors want to keep putting me on a astupid antidepressant, but I
am not depressed, I am ticked off cause they are not treating the
problem, they are treating the symptoms and no one buys into the
amalgam thing or wants to give me any thing such as zyban or welbutrin
to help me quit smoking, i have smoked for only 12 yrs, i know this is
no excuse but i have tried to quit, more than once and have been
unsuccesful, not that i want to be but i am addicted. All of these
symptoms with this thing how do we know it isnt cancer and not dental
amalgam illness ? the symptoms arethe same as an arsenical cancer ,
very very scared in Illinois.

Good job being skeptical. I completely understand.

I think the best thing to do is let you read my story. It's located
here:

http://herballure.com/mms

Having my "silver" fillings removed changed my life dramatically (and
my business partner had the same experience).

Cheers!

DOes anyone know for sure if this is for real or what ? And how did
you get diagnosed with this? I have had some wild stuff go on this past
year and am leaning to this but am also afraid of cancer. the stuff I
have going on though if someone had cancer of so many different parts
of thier body couldnt or shouldnt be able to even function.
   Is there a test you can do for this dental amalgam deal or what? not
trying to be smart im just skeptical is all.

Check out the story of Matteo from Brazil and his experience with
mercury from amalgam fillings.

Have you considered mercury as the cause of your health issues?

I just saw your post and thought I'd respond.

I believe safe removal is best because as long as the fillings are
in, they are emitting mercury. Here is a link you need to check out:

http://www.iaomt.org/merc_release.swf

My friend, Amy, had fibromyalgia and got over the symptoms of it by
removing some/most of her fillings. She is actually the person who
first brought it to my attention. See my story:

http://herballure.com/mms

Make sure you have amalgam removed from a dentist specially trained
in removal because you can be exposed to large amounts of mercury if
special safety precautions are not taken.

Keep us posted on your situation.

Thanks!

If I am experiancing a lot of mercury posion symptoms, and have a
lot of cavities. Is removal best. Also how much info does anyone
have on root cancals being pulled.

I keep one on my desk while helping other people. It's excellent:
