What is a way to keep numbness away while waiting to have fillings removed (I am still reading Dr. Huggins' book to make sure I do it right). Russ, you mentioned flax oil. Is this my best bet, or are there other things I could be doing. Magnesium is helping, but I keep needing more of it(scared to go overboard) I do take fish oil. I have read many times that fish oil has no mercury. Is this correct in your experience? Anyway, the fish oil does NOT seem to be helping my joint problems at all. They are getting worse.
