Sixteen days ago the dentist insisted on taking out an old filling because of rot, to replace with a new amalgam filling! Been getting all the symptoms: tingling, had a sore throat for two days, very nervous, this is it.

I have about thirteen fillings in my mouth. Tested for mercury, absolutely fine a couple years ago. These symptoms are from the incorrect removal. Since I have a brand new silver, is it sealed? Can anyone tell me if all of these symptoms are probably just from removal? Is the new filling susceptible to vapor because it's new, and is it safe to chelate?

If I can tolerate mercury in the teeth and all of these symptoms are from my inhaling the vapor from the removal, does anyone know when I might peak with symptoms, or is it possible that the peak has passed? I have been feeling better today after cranial-sacral therapy yesterday, and loads of raw garlic and milk thistle and water. Thank you thank you thank you!
