Thank you for your post, James. I am FINALLY getting ready to go through this, myself. I have many, many fillings. I believe I still have 16 placements, as of right now. There were 17, but I had a tooth pulled last year (wish I hadn't had to), but there was too much pain. I have been getting sicker these past 2 years, to where I'm almost at a point of no return. I feel that my liver has reached it's limit of overload, and I can't wait any longer.

I have an appt March 3 (day before my birthday), and it was actually 16 years ago RIGHT NOW, that all these fillings were being put in. If there are any cancellations, they are going to try to get me in sooner. I am anxious to get started, and scared to death, too. The first appt will be xrays, and seeing how bad things really are (BAD). I have a tooth crumbling in the back, and a root canal one that never got crowned (last dentist said it was better I never did), because I have mercury in my jawbone and bloodstream. I had a huge filling that was drilled through for a root canal, which rammed the metal right into my jaw.

Pray for me, if you would, and keep us updated on your well being. I am terrified of what will happen when I get mine out (how much and if I will get sicker as my body starts to dump), and even more terrified that they are still in my mouth right now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
