true Hg toxicity causes a lot of symptoms which cannot be
explained by allergy. For example, my chess playing ability
declined dramatically. there apparently is still some nervous
system damage becaue its harder to do certain visulization tasks.
It goes far beyond simple allergy.

I'd have to determine that these tests are reliable, and as I
said toxiciy could cause allergy anyway.

There where a number of abnormal findings before amalgam
removal such as high blood pressure changes in wbc, elevated
creatine, elevated A/G ratio. Low thyroid, frequent urination.
All which normalized after amalgam removal. Not to mention the jaw near
the filling had become soft. I could also try challenge testing now
that my amalgams are removed but that could be dangerous.

It was done by a conventional blood test ordered by a conventional
MD.

Was it confirmed using another method?

They checked it twice according to the report. I don't know if they
used another method or not.

Obviously you can never be sure, but let me also tell you that
I had to press the (new) dentist to remove the filling because it
seemed okay on x-ray. then what do you know a tremendous amount
of decay underneath and apparently the filling was in bad shape. then
after this I looked for my original
records when i was back home and they were gone..an awful lot
of coincedences. Also if you are being affected by Hg you know
it. I wasn't concerned about proving what the problem was but more
with concerned with trying to get better. I was really out of it when i
had the amalgam removed and one big mistake I did make was not saving
the filling.

I haven't researched it at all so I can't say if it is
accurate or not.
