Pleo-Chelate is a homeopathic chelating agent. My physician used Acupuncture Meridian Assessment to determine what chelating agent to give me.

Each day since the removal of my first two amalgam fillings, I have been progressively feeling better. My boyfriend and I played football yesterday, and I felt really energetic and had a great time. Prior to my removal, my health seemed to be going downhill. I was lethargic and having problems breathing. Also, I had upper back and neck pains along with mild anxiety. I went to my primary care physician, and he could not find anything wrong with me; so, he prescribed me medication for depression and anxiety. He even told me that everyone starts to "feel old" at my age (I am only 31) . Well, I refuse to feel old!!! So, that's when I turned to Dr. Yu and Dr. Charleville in St. Louis, MO. I have been seeing Dr. Yu (I posted his webpage in the first message of this thread) since December of 2003. He put me on a parasite cleanse and did a hair mineral analysis. I have been on vitamin & mineral therapy since then. Then, he suggested that I get my amalgams removed. He referred me to Dr. Charleville. Dr. Charleville is amazing. He and I discuseed the immune system and the role of environmental toxins for almost an hour when I first met him (I should mention that I am an immunologist). He also is very modest in his fees ($250 for each small filling, and $1000 for each large filling). I still have two small fillings to remove, but I feel that my health is improving.

This experience has opened my eyes to the real dangers that affect health. Genetics plays a role, but the environment sets the stage as to whether or not the "faulty" genes will actually elucidate disease. I developed pneumonia and hypothyroidism as a child, all shortly after having mercury placed in my mouth. I use to think that I would never have lived the life I have if modern medicine had not diagnosed and monitored these conditions I had developed.........Now, I know that it is modern medicine that set the stage for these conditions to develop within me. I plan on doing what I can to help others wake up to this tragedy.

I plan on updating more good news as I gradually regain my health and my life.
