Hi Dawn, they're called cavitations. I did not know they existed and thought people meant cavities. But then I found out what they were. I didn't know that after a tooth had been extracted, that a cavitation in the jaw can occur from the area not healing properly and then it harbours potent bacteria, which can then spread into the rest of the body.

My symptoms happened very quickly if I recall. But again, it could have been mercury from the dental office itself, or a combination. I do know that things were far worse than I ever had before, even with mercury.

A debilitating fatigue, mercury symptoms far worse, reactions to any supplements ,being injured easily by any little mistakes I might make. One little thing goes wrong and I can remain almost crippled from then on.

So i knew it was more than mercury at work. This is why I cannot heal properly I think. But going into a dental office, which I've done recently, has further poisoned me just by being in there and I'm now dealing with that on top of everything. Which is tipping me over the edge.

Pity the dentist didn't get me in on one go and do the cavitation job there and then. He might have saved me from unecessary further exposure. Now I can't do anything.

But there are really no clear cut answers. It's insidious and very hard to tell what is doing what.
