question about Menieres Disease

I would like to share my story about amalgam fillings with you.

I started losing my hearing about 6 years ago and starting getting vertigo about 4 or 5 years. Starting in mid July of 2011, I was unable to move my head 2 inches without throwing up constantly and could not function without Dramamine 2, both day and night. Before I learned how to control the vertigo with Dramamine 2, I could not do anything. I just laid in bed and could not move. Even to get up to go to the restroom meant throwing up at least 10 times one way both to and from the restroom. I was diagnosed with Meniere’s. Someone told me about Meniere’s being associated with amalgam fillings, which have mercury in them. I started to research this and found out that a lot of my health issues were symptoms of mercury poisoning. (I will list these symptoms below.) I went to a Doctor of Natural Health, one with a degree in the field, and found out my mercury levels were extremely high.

I made an appointment with a holistic dentist, to avoid any additional mercury exposure. I had my right side amalgam fillings removed first, since it was effecting my right ear. I was so afraid to stop taking the Dramamine 2 for fear of not being able to function again. So I stopped all Dramamine 2 in the day time and did a couple of nights of a half a dose and one night of a fourth of a dose. In less than one week, I had totally stopped taking the Dramamine 2 and have not had vertigo since!! I have never been so grateful. (I am in the process of detoxing for the mercury, which you most do to remove the mercury that is in your system.)

I had my amalgam fillings approximately 25 years before my meniere’s hit me. Here are the other health issues I had, but did not relate them to my fillings until after I started researching mercury:

Irritability
Restlessness
Angered easily
Indecision
Inability to concentrate
Insomnia
Numbness in limbs for no reason
Muscle weakness
My hands had just started to tremor on occasion
Coordination got worse
Bleeding gums
Loosening of teeth
Excessive salivation (especially noticeable at night)
Foul breath
Sometimes a metallic taste in mouth, but not always
Vertigo - terrible case of
Ringing in ears, along with other noises
Lost most hearing of hearing in right ear
Candida
Chronic constipation, then sometimes diarrhea
Abnormal heart rhythm and EKG
Repeated chronic sinus infections
Tumor in jaw close to one of my large fillings - believe to be cancerous (now rid of)
Joint pain, that I thought was fibromyalgia
Chronic sinus infections and terrible allergies (although I grew up on a farm and did not have allergy problems)
Severe dermatitis on right hand developed shortly after receiving my fillings. (I am curious to see if this goes away after I detox.)
Subnormal body temperature
Excessive perspiration
Unexplained pain
Chronic fatigue

There are many other symptoms. If you have any silver fillings in your mouth, look up mercury poisoning on the internet. It first effects the brain and nervous system, which may be the cause of the tingling. I am not saying that is the problem, but it is at least worth checking into. If you have the amalgam fillings and you have them removed, please go to a holistic dentist to avoid further exposure to the mercury and you will need to detox for mercury. Mercury does not show up in your blood test after several minutes of the exposure. Your body stores it in you cells to get it out of your blood. So I would not rely on a doctor testing your blood to see if it is high. A urine test is more accurate, but you have to take something to pull it out of your cells so it will show up in your urine. I know your symptoms can be caused by other things as well. But I have gained my life back and want to get the word out to help others. Please let me know, what you find out. Thanks and I wish you the best! I know it about ruined my life.
