Since neither of the above posters has really attempted to answer my question I hardly feel I owe them an answer! Obviously they dont understand my real position and wish to continue the sarcasm and name calling. It is true we really have nothinG to offer each other. Tis a pity, but if your attempt is to make me look disingenuous you really are not understanding my viewpoint! I do not support amalagm or mercury poisoning in any form, or have I ever said nothing at all should be done, thats rediculous. I am looking of an honest answer and a potential alternative solution to Amalgam removal and a solution to the potential dangers of these procedures! If watching a close friend suffer from these procedures is not personal enough , I'm so sorry I dont meet your criteria for asking these questions!
