This has been a trying few years for me to say the
least.. I have become very ill to the point of not being able to work since October of 1998. The short of the story is that I was diagnosed
with Nerve Damage, Rheumatoid Disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and/or possible MS. But the way I got it should be considered by everyone that
has silver fillings in their mouth. Something caused it and I want to find out what it is.
First I never get sick. I cant remember the last
time I was ill. Then this happened. It has been trying not only physically but spiritually and emotionally too.

It started creeping up on me in October 1998, but hit full force on November 26,1998.
I was feeling very tired all the time. And could not get enough sleep even after 12 hours I was
so fatigued I would shake all the time. My regular MD said it was the flu. Well I went back to
him three weeks later and the fatigue only got worse. I brought up the idea about Mercury
Poisoning from my fillings and he said it was near impossible and not likely..
I had two fillings that were cracked and needed to be replaced , So I went to my Dentist that
did the work and used the plastic white ones to replace the silver Amalgams.
While there we decided to do them all and replace them with the nice looking composite ones.
I was concerned about the poisons in the old filling anyway and was reassured by the dentist
that the silver mercury fillings were fine and can not hurt me. So we started the work
Well two weeks later I was in bed. Very Ill. My MD sent me to a Neurologist, the Neurologist
sent me to a Rheumatologist and he sent me to a Endocrinologist and no one could figure out
why I am so fatigued to the point of not being able to walk.
I brought up the Mercury thing again and they did a test for it. They did a serum level test for Mercury.
I found out later that the test the Neurologist did is not worth the paper it was printed on.
It was now March and I was not able to work at all. I was in bed 22 hours a day. My
chiropractor suggested I go to the Environmental Health Center In Dallas, TX . There they
started testing me for all types of allergens and chemical toxicity. Again I asked about Mercury
and they did another test. They did a RBC (Red Blood Count) test. Basically they draw blood
crush the cells and see what's inside. Well My Mercury Level was very Elevated.
At that time my Dr. there moved to Utah and was not able to help me.
I was shaking and had tremors, vision problems, severe muscle and joint pain, twitching,
numbness all over 24 hours a day , 7 days a week for months. And loosing memory by the day I met a girl named Kristie
at the EHC in Dallas and she said she knew a Doctor in Austin,TX that
could help me. So I said lets go. By the way , Kristie has Gulf War Syndrome. More about that later.
So after 5 months of wrong blood tests and more blood tests, Two MRIs, body and head and
full torso CT scans,SED rate, allergy testing, and constant pain I met with the Doctor in Austin, TX.
He reviewed my stack of paperwork of previous blood tests, CAT scans, MRI and Xray results
and listened to me for about an hour. He gave me his idea. He suspected Heavy Metal
Poisoning- not the music type- and Mercury Toxicity. He gave me an injection by IV of a
solution called DMPS. And I did a 24 hour urinalysis test... Two days later I got the results.
The Mercury level was basically off the page. In the RED. So we started a program of DMPS
chelation and Mineral replacement IV's. I am currently doing this and expect to get better some day.
I just want people to know how dangerous silver fillings are. Did you know that the "ADA"
American Dental Association will revoke the license of any Dentist that discloses info that
silver fillings can be hazardous to your health. Most dentists will not even acknowledge that an amalgam is toxic.
But we all know that Mercury is. Back in the 1970's there were scares in the news about the
mercury levels in Tuna fish. That is so small compared to amount that is in your mouth
depending on how many fillings you may have. Also , your fillings are releasing mercury 24/7 into your body.
The Mercury is released from fillings every time you brush your teeth, or have them polished.
Every time you eat something hot and when you chew on them. It is released in the form of
Mercury vapor "methyl mercury". So when they Drilled mine out, a whole lot of it was released into me.
There is a proper way to remove that type of Amalgam and my dentist did not do it..
If you do not have any symptoms it may be better to leave the metal filings in your mouth.
If you are to have mercury fillings removed... Please for your own sake.. See a Holistic dentist
that specializes in proper non totxic removal. It costs more , But Our health is our most
important asset... I hope that I recover mine. It has almost been a year now and I feel worse
than awful all the time. And too weak to work. I put off typing this for two months because I
could not get the energy.The money has Run dry and at times so does my spirit. But I must fight for my health.
If I were to do it over again and knowing what I have found out:
After getting any Amalgam removed I would see a Doctor that can remove the mercury with
DMPS immediately. I have found that my D.O. or Dr. of Osteopathy is more familiar with
chelation of Heavy Metals than any MD. that I have spoken to over the past years . Your GP or
family doc is good for colds but nothing this serious. NEVER HAVE DMPS treatments while Mercury fillings are still in your mouth.
DMPS is such a powerful Chelator that it will pull the Mercury that is still in your teeth out and into your blood stream possibly making things worse.
I will add to this story as I am able. E-mail me if you have any Questions. Or if you have any
Answers.We need to share information.
God Bless,
Kirk
PS It is now September 1999. And I have just finished my 10th DMPS treatment. Half way
there. I have also started to get a special kind of acupuncture called N.A.E .T. ( Nanbutripad
Allergy Elimination Treatment) This does not remove the Mercury but it stops the body from
being sensitive to the mercurys toxic effects. It has helped me alot. . I have been walking again , and even started to be able to play bass too!!
As I find them, I will put links to N.A.E.T. on this site.

Remember I am not a doctor. I am just putting down the Information that I have accumulated
over this year. A person identifying themselves as a member of the ADA threatened me to remove this page. I
will not do that until I am made to by a court injunction. Sounds to me like I may be on to something that is not wanted out on the net.
Update Hi It is August 2001
I know that I have not updated in a long time but if you are looking at this you may know how
hard it is to do just the simplest thing. Well I am still working at it, getting well that is.But I
have actually felt almost normal for about 10 days now. I forgot what that was like. You
wonder if Do I really feel better or am I just used to being in pain and feeling Bad all the time.
I have been getting a few emails from people across the country and Europe too. I thank you
for reading my story .. But there is so much more to tell everyone. Some day I will post it.
Mostly it is from people that have been Ill for a long time too. Some worse than others. It
breaks my heart, I wish there was something that could help everyone. It just takes constant
searching and believing in ones self. That this is not in your imagimation. And that the tests are there to prove it.
Just finding the right doctor to do the right test is the hardest problem.
I have found that NAEThelped me a little, But did not hold, Not that it will be that way for everyone .. but that is the way it turned out for me.
I have found a great Nutritionist that has helped me Alot. My immune system was wrecked by
the mercury and for whatever reason I became sensitive to almost every food. And I love to eat
. Especially Italian food. I have been cleansing my body spiritually and physically.
Colonics have helped me , also manual Lymphatic drainage, with eating as much live food like
veggies and Juicing. If you have a candida problem like alot of mercury toxic people do, be
careful of juicing too much. The high sugar content of juiced Veggies will only make the Candida thrive.
I will try to update this more often than every two years. But I actually feel Ok today and I
want to go for a walk. I could not even think that two years ago. But I am doing it now. And I pray that it stays and I only get better everyday.
Dec.2001 Many of you that have come to this page have found it due to a health related issue that has
been unable to be explained by modern medicine. It has happened to me and the emotional
stress and financial stress can be absolutely unbearable at times.
I personally believe in the power of prayer and Jesus of the Holy Trinity.
A website that has helped me with my search for physical as well as spirtual healing is
www.drday.com
I believe that spiritual healing must come before the Physical healing can come. It is all
intertwined with one another.
Please feel free to write me . I always try to get back in a timely manner.

Thank God that I have been feeling OK these past few weeks.
Part of my treatments over the past few years have been quite different than what I would call normal.
The doctors where not able to help me with my health but were only able to diagnose and give the symptoms a name or a diseases name.
The rheumatologist said he thought that I had a very high RF of 40 and that I should take NSAIDS. That will not cure the problem I thought.
The Neurologist put me on Steroids for a while and that only seemed to make me feel even
worse. That will not cure you. It only covers the symptoms from what I have learned.
And you will only get worse. I have never seen a doctor cure someone of a disease, only blast
it into remission or cover the symptoms with drugs. But never get to what caused the disease.
Why it happened. Diseases just do not happen. Something triggers it. If you look deep enough
and are honest enough , you can find the underlying cause. Everything has a cause and reaction.
I chose to heal my own body the natural way with some help from the Docs.
I had to get all the toxins out. Remove the metal.
And cleanse my organs so that they can do what they are supposed to do. Support life in my
body. I am still working at it and it is a life style change for me.
My D.O. put me on long term antibiotics which is not a natural way but that is the only drug help that I had.
He found that people with CFS or CFIDS may have a Bacterial attack that is not detected by normal methods.
So I was on Doxycyclene for almost a year and then Biaxin for about two months.
I had to supplement with allot of acidophilous to help prevent candida build up.
I have been recently doing Ozone Spa treatments and that has helped greatly in my mobility.
My liver was trashed from all the mercury and I believe that the Ozone has helped clean it and
allow me to process the toxins more easliy. During my heavy metal blood level tests Uranium
was found too. I have no idea how I got that. That is what I get for living in New York City for 38 years.. hahah
So as I said this has been a good week or two. The best that I have felt in years. One doctor told me that you can not get better
from the things that I have. I hope to prove that he is incorrect and that we can heal our bodies with Gods help.
Water, Water, Water... we need lots of the pure stuff. Drday.com I have been drinking distilled water for 3 years.
And I try to eat Organic foods and Organic Raw vegesas much as possible.
Our cell mitochondria need enzymes for cellular growth and cooked foods have all their enzymes killed in the cooking process.
So I have been trying to eat Raw a much as my taste buds allow me to. "Desperate times need desperate action." So a life style change is in need.
I will ad to this as time goes on. Thank you,

I am still working at feeling Normal. It has been over 4 years now. Some days are OK now, and
many still have pain and numbness. I know that I will be better eventually.
I just want to thank all the people that have written to me and I hope that my experience can help someone with similar health problens.

November 2003 It is coming up on 5 years since it all started.
I can honestly say that at this time I am more than 95% back to normal.There are days that I just feel great !
A few years ago I did not think it was possible to be alive much less to ever feel good again ,
I have been blessed to be able to get well. The long term question now is. What have I learned from this? And may I not forget.

Well the years have passed. I never thought that I would feel well again. But I do. I have been back
to playing bass professionally, have dated once again, broke up, got a new dog and have been
living life once again. And i know that God had his hand on me while i was out and still does.. I
know it as fact and no one can make me change my mind on that... I should not be here today according to all the experts... So Thank you God!
So I have gotten much better,, I do have a bad day from time to time with fatigue and some pain..
but it is not daily and hourly. Sorry for not coming here for a few years but i was playing catch up
with time lost... So i am at scratch one starting all over again.. and im 50 years old... whew..
Thank you. Hope to come back soon... But we call all get well....
