One of the most annoying and evident symptoms I have is damaged blood vessels, especially hands, feet and face: they easily get very cold, and have this ugly reddish colour (and of course they tingle a lot.). When i keep my hands down, they get full of blood that does not manage to flow up easily, so they get purple and swallen. I read in a few places that mercury does this by oxidising the vessels. I think its also the cause of heart pain I sometimes have. The ugly thing is I doubt the circulatory system/my hands and feet will get back completely normal. Does anyone of you have similar circulation problems?

Anyway after 4 months from amalgam removal I'm starting to notice that my periods of well being are getting longer and more frequent <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I guess mercury takes quite a bit also to leave the blood, despite what they say.

Another curious symptom that I developed about 7 years ago (I remember exaclty when it started!), i.e. 4 years after the first amalgams (at 12 years old) is that I started to feel my heartbeat. Now I can feel every single heartbeat if I pay any attention at all, always.

Despite being italian I quit eating pasta (and sugar and bread and most carbs) about 6 years ago (long before I knew of mercury) because it made me sick. Now thats improving quite a lot and I eat with my family <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
