I just found out about an organization called DAMS -- Dental Amalgam Mercury Syndrome. DAMS is a network of people who had bizarre medical problems that could not be fixed until their dental amalgam fillings were removed. They publish a newsletter and are happy to share information. They also give out information packets and referral lists. There address is DAMS at P.O. Box 64397, Virginia Beach, VA 23467-4397 or 800 311-6265. This information was shared by Michael C. Goldman, D.D.S of Chevy Chase, Md. in the magazine Natural Health. In the same discussion Paul Rubin, D.D.S. of Seattle WA tells how important it to have the mercury removed by a dentist experienced in mercury-free dentistry. He gives the following information to get referrals: Foundation for Toxic Free Dentistry, P.O. Box 608010, Orlando, FL 32860-8010 Maybe it is a hoax, but I know three individuals whose symptoms disappeared after having their fillings removed. One had symptoms for over 40 years. Another happens to be my husband. Nancy Burnham cg for Don 66/17 ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert A. Fink, M.
