Yes-this has been happening to me to. I had my amalgams removed over a year ago and it seems like the more supplements I take I feel worse to. I have talked to Laura about it on the phone and she is stumped. The only supplement I can take that has no side effects is algin. It is a great chelator. Maybe the body is saying Let me get this junk out at my own pace like you said. I would appreciate any insight on this. I still have a couple of root canaled teeth. I had 3 pulled that the dentist felt were a problem and it didn't help me at all so I am hesitant to pull any more. The supplemts really aggravate and give me bad fibromyalgia symptoms.
