I was never sure that it was mercury. But after reading several books about mercury poisoning and then getting on the forum, it seemed all the people were having symptoms much like mine. And it all made sense. As a matter of fact, after learning that fillings are 50% mercury, I was not amazed anymore that I was having multiple symptoms, I was amazed that I was still living and somewhat functioning! After I got my fillings replaced, I had my ups and downs, but, objectively, I have no more thyroid antibodies. I have had thyroid antibodies for at least 24 years and now they are gone. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
