hi spiderbaby, Sorry it took me so long to respond -- I didn't see your question until now.

I will have my amalgams removed in one week. And, yes, I am still taking the Algin. My dentist wants me to continue with it indefinitely. Although, I'm running out of empty stomach time. I'm taking 3-4 caps once a day -- probably not enough, I know. But I'm on other vitamins and supplements and I don't want the Algin to absorb what's in them. I take the bulk of my supplements with foods and dont' want to take the Algin then. Anyway ... it's a balancing act sometimes. lol

I'll write in and let everyone know how it goes. I've elected to use conscious sedation because I'm having 16 amalgams removed and I've been quite sick. I figured it would be easier on my body to be sedated. And I'd get in the dentist's way if I wasn't sedated. I'd want to him to be telling me exactly what he was doing every step of the way. Shoot ........ I'd probably even want to see all the vapor readings and holes in my teeth myself. lol
