Re: Chelators / Swedish ES experiences

I expect many of you are familiar with the following document but I was not.
It was produced by FEB (the Swedish association for electrosensitives) and
is collated from the letters written by 415 ES people to a Swedish
government department, describing their symptoms. I found it very
interesting .. I am sure most people who read it will recognise some of the
symptoms described (hopefully, not all!). The entire document can be
downloaded as a pdf file.
 
http://www.feb.se/NEWS/news2004.html#WHO-BW20041025
 
The relevance to chelators is that the document lists possible "triggers"
quoted by people for the onset of their ES (page 18). Not surprisingly,
computers were top (at the time, prolonged exposure to computers causing
rashes and similar was probably the main form of ES reported). The shock
for me was that the second most common cause was mercury amalgams -
including amalgam removal. And some of the testimonies of people who
developed ES after amalgam removal with too few precautions sound worryingly
familiar (pages 16/17).

My worry would be more around the possibility of mercury vapour immediately
after release being absorbed through the tissues of the mouth, or even small
amounts getting past the air dam. If one is sensitive enough to mercury
that the small amount continuously leaching from the fillings makes a
difference, their removal carries obvious dangers as it mobilises large
amounts of mercury suddenly in a very mobile gaseous form. Once it is in
the room, however, it should dilute down very fast in the large amount of
air.
 
So the ringing in your ear began after filling removal - well yes, that's
what happened to Sue, except that it feels like it is not just in one ear,
but acrosss a fair amount of her head.

Thanks, Ian and Marc.

I have postponed my appointments until I have a grasp of all this.
Also found that the dentist is not doing all the things that he says
on his website when I questioned closely.

Both amalgam-free dentists do not use supplemental air to breathe
through the nose. One of them said he thinks it is better that the
air is filtered in the room but obviously one is going to ingest some
mercury vapor before it gets sucked out of the room.

I am feeling that neither of these dentists are taking mercury
toxicity really seriously.

I have had ringing in one ear since I had 2 huge fillings removed a
year ago without supplemental air (he used a dam and high volume
vacuum).

A key point to remember is that there are in effect 2 stages to
chelation -
(1) getting it out of your cells and into the bloodstream and (2)
getting it out of the bloodstream and out of your body via the
kidneys. The second stage is vital immediately after amalgam
removal, to make sure any mercury vapour you do accidentally ingest
gets mopped up and expelled as fast as possible, and does not get
into other parts of the body where it can do more harm (especially
the brain).

One other point, if at any stage during extraction you feel that the
rubber dam may have slipped or something is going wrong, get the
dentist to STOP at once! It does not happen often but, as we now
know to our cost, if it does, it has severe bad effects for mercury-
sensitive individuals.
