I'm really sorry to hear that you feel worse after your removal. I, too, was having problems with depression, negativity, poor concentration, etc. (more emotional and mental symptoms than physical actually).

But after my amalgams were removed, also by a dentist following the Huggins safety protocols, I felt like a new person. It was almost as if overnight, the huge suffocating cloud of depression and negativity vanished. In fact I realized I felt happy for no reason...a real first for me.

Of course I did experience a roller coaster ride in the beginning...some good days, some not as good, but overall the days got better and better, and the bad days got less and less. I honestly didn't know much about chelation back then. All I knew at that time to use was lots of vitamin C and chlorella. About a year later, I discovered Algin. I didn't find out about Dr. Cutler's book (Amalgam Illness: Diagnosis & Treatment) until a couple of years after that.

Just a couple of thoughts...

Did your dentist really follow all the Huggins safety protocols? I've heard of some dentists who just pick and choose which methods they use and yet they claim to follow the procotols. If you weren't given your own oxygen supply or the dentist didn't use a special HEPA filtering vacuum (just the little tube vacuum in your mouth), then you were likely exposed to a lot of mercury vapor during the drilling procedure, which could definitely make you sick.

Or, perhaps you are taking supplements or detox products that are too aggressive and causing you to reabsorb or redistribute mercury. This is a very common cause of people feeling worse after amalgam removal. Feel free to post what supplements you're taking or foods you're eating (i.e. cilantro, garlic, eggs, etc.), and I'm sure others on the forum will gladly help decipher what things, if any, might be causing you problems.

P.S. I just saw a video last week that revealed how dangerous Root Canals are and how they can make people sick. Do you have any?

Hope to hear back from you. We're all here to help however we can.
