I was desperate for a cure....

Twenty five years ago after living with the MS for only 1 year I was desperate for a cure, or should I say some relief since there is not a known cure for MS. So in my travels of research at the library, this was before the time of a computer in every home, I had read that amalgam fillings were responsible for many illnesses in the body. MS being one of them. So my husband and I talked it over and decided to talk to my dentist at that time about this. He agreed with our findings and so the journey began to have my fillings changed over. It took numerous trips to the dentist office. When I was pregnant with our son I had lost much of the calcium in my teeth and ended up with 9 months later not only a gorgeous baby boy but also with a mouthful of cavities. But when I look at the beautiful set of teeth my son has now I decide it was worth it. Nice straight, beautiful white teeth and he never had a cavity till he was 13 and then after he lived on his own when older and changed his eating habits....well...now he has joined the rest of us with some teeth problems. So as the journey began to remove the fillings each trip to the dentist was aggravating to my body. On more that 1 occasion I needed help to leave the dentist chair. The drilling was too much for my central nervous system, which controls the MS. On 1 occasion my husband had to bring the car around the back of the dentist office and he and the doctor nearly carried me out. I was so weak I could not get myself out of the chair. This did not discourage me I continued to go back for several more visits, but each time I got attacked from my MS. Could it be the fact that when taking the fillings out the mercury seeped out into my system? This is what I believe happened along with the fact that my weak body could not handle all the manipulations in the process. It was way to much for my already weakened body to endure. So I stopped the progress with the removal. I had decided there had to be a different route to take and then that is when I chose nutrition, supplements and of course my prayer life developed tremendously. I will never know if in fact removal of any of the amalgam fillings helped but I do know it was to hard for me to endure and I am a tough broad when it comes to pain. It takes a lot of pain to make me complain or let anyone know what I am experiencing. So if you are considering removal of any of your fillings for any health reasons, please do your homework first. It is so much easier these days to research with all the information on the computers. Do not jump into anything without backing up your decision.
Remember since you now have this illness, people will be coming at you left and right reporting what they heard worked for someone else that so and so knows that has MS or even another disease which you suffer. You must learn not to allow these people to discourage you or stress you. I allowed it 26 years ago to cause me to be frustrated. These people mean no harm, they just want you well. I also got and still to this day get tons of friends telling me about medicines out there they heard about or read about and why am I not on them. What they do not understand that every medicine is for a different type of MS or symptom. A lot goes in to the Doctor deciding which one to use on you or me. Not everyone who has MS is struggling with only that disease, some have other health problems going on and medicines need to work together or they will hurt the patient. Also what others do not understand is that most of what they hear on TV is just being tried by the FDA and is not available to the general public yet who are suffering. Their findings and quotes are the results of the tested people for the drug. You need to place your trust into the hands of your doctor, if you do not feel comfortable with him then fire him and get another until you find one who you are comfortable with. Remember it is your body, your decision that matters how you handle this, no one else's decision. Do not be influenced by anyone. You are the one who has to lie in the bed or on the couch all day to rest in order to be cheerful for your husband or children. Or to be able to make dinner for your family. No one else, but you. So I am here to tell you...nothing matters at this time but you and how you want to treat your symptoms. Don't let anyone tell you differently. Because when it is all said and done, those very helpful people go home and live their life and you are still left with your family and your illness and you are the ones who need to know how to deal with it the way you choose and what is best for all of you. Some may disagree with your choices, but be strong, no one will ever understand until they put on a pair of shoes with MS on them. (or any other illness) You are what matters the most...
Much love goes out to all of you suffering right now with this as I am right there along side you at this time. BUT...I am LIVING proof that for 20 years I conquered MS with God, nutrition and supplements & REST. AND I WILL DO SO AGAIN! I will have it no other way, I have a life to live....fully & abundantly & I want to BeWell4Ever!
