I had a mouthful of amalgam fillings, some so old that they needed to be
replaced but since my teeth seemed to get worse each time I saw my dentist,
we decided it was time to remove all of them and I know have a full implant
on the bottom and temporary top waiting for 2002 to get my permanent denture
for the top. I never noticed any positive or negative results (other than
the normal pain and discomfort) when I had my bottom teeth or top teeth
removed, JMHO.

Even if you had insurance I’m sure that they would not pay for removal and
replacement of perfectly good fillings. (read
sarcasm here).

Hi Donna, I hope that you will allow yourself to grieve….so important.
Tears heal, let them flow, my heart goes out to you.
Love,
Lilla
Thanks–it has been tough. I think if I could just cry it would
help. Maybe I’m in denial, if I cry that would mean I have
to
accept my sister’s death as real. I “know” she’s gone, but it
doesn’t “feel” real…. I sometimes feel guilty about
that. I’m
working on it.

My sister died in a car accident some number of years ago. It took me about 18
months to finally come to terms with her
death. Don’t be too hard on yourself. We all deal with our grief in different
ways. The tears will come when they need to.
For me, it was Christmas. My sister and I had a special Christmas ritual. The
first Christmas without her was a bit of a
blur; it was my first Christmas in the Army, my first Christmas away from home
so I was adjusting to that and the stress of
Army life. By the second Christmas, life was more … ordinary and her presence
in my life was more pronounced. She’s been
gone now almost 20 years and I still miss her.
Denial is the first stage of grief. Typical stages include denial, anger,
bargaining, depression and finally, acceptance.
Knowing this doesn’t make it any easier and we all move through them at our own
pace. Honor yourself and your sister in your

own way and let your grief pass through these stages in its own time. In the
meantime, take care of yourself the best way you
can.
Blessings,
Karen

Thanks to both of you for reminding me! I do have some relaxation
tapes, etc., I must start using them again. By the way, thanks for
the poem, it is wonderful!

I have lots of fillings. Not sure about their content. Had some for
years, so probably are amalgams.

Yes Karen, St John’s Wort causes ‘weird’ reactions to most all O’s. Dr D’s
catechol O is also good. Those aminos work well
too.

St John’s Wort is avoid for O’s…
“Type Os have lower levels of the enzyme MAO, and St John’s Wort is an MAO
inhibitor. This perhaps explains why many type Os on St John’s Wort say they
feel “weird” or have disturbing dreams. I have however been finding that type Os
with mild to moderate depression do benefit from the amino acid tyrosine (which
can boost dopamine levels), and arginine (which is used to recycle nitrous oxide
in the nervous system). Also, the gene for the enzyme dopamine beta hydroxylase
sits right on top of the ABO gene and there are indications that this may cause
psychiatric syndromes to be somewhat related to ABO blood group. Maybe those
Japanese personality observations were not so off-the-wall after all?” –Peter

increased to approx. 85% functionality in my normal life. It was so nice to be
myself again - back to normal. You don’t feel like a million bucks or anything
like that…but you just feel normal, you can think straight, not dreading
social situations and trying to make small talk is like pulling teeth.

Sure, I understand. I tried St. John’s Wart a few years ago and just
did NOT like what it did to me. I tried it at the recommendation of a
friend - who I now know is type A - and it seemed to intensify my
negative emotions. I knew within *days* that I didn’t care for that
stuff. That’s why it stood out for me in the ER4YT book as an avoid.
One of those “Oh, sure, NOW you tell me!” things. It might have
changed, though, with the LR book. I couldn’t find a reference in the
online database. Like so many things, it’s individual. Good luck
with it.
