The idea of their being a categoric link between MS and mercury is not
being forwarded by scientists. What is bening suggested is that some
people with MS symptoms actually have sensitivities. The lesson is to
get checked for sensitivities if you have a long-term disabling illness,
and to eperience different diets and environments in order to see if
you can establish connections between eposure and symptom levels.

Gary,
While chemical sensitivity should be explored on a case by case
basis, it dose appear that a catagoric link between amalgam fillings and
MS is a 'blind alley'. Thanks for your contributions; I guess we will
do this all again in 4 or 5 years.
Regards

Chris,
Thank you for this Chris. I agree sensativities should be
looked into. I think this is something that should be looked into in
close cooperation with ones nuro. Is there a specific test you feel is
the most effective in determining ones level of sensitivity?
Regards

Im not sure why a nuro should be the one to investigate sensitivities.
Could you explain this? As I mentioned, I do not know of a test for
mercury senstivity that is reliable. That is why I feel consumers should
be advised of the possibility, and allowed to make up their own minds.
If the doctor or dentist involved is threatened by the consumer being
thusly empowered, he or she should be relieved of his/her involvement,
and sent on a course in basic business practice and professional ethics.
There is only one way I know of of determining if mercury is causing a
systemic problem: remove the mercury and see if there is an improvement.
