Mercury fillings

, , , ...

I haven't blogged for a while. This is because I've been busy and also because I maintain 4 other blogs on very different subjects - typical ADDer you might say.
Last night I was watching TV when the adverts came on. I sat there and couldn't remember what I'd just been watching. I mean my mind went TOTALLY blank. I racked my brain for several minutes before the show came back on. It was one of my favourites and I'd been actively watching it; it wasn't just on in the background.

Now is this the ADD 'getting worse', stress, early senility?...or mercury fillings?
ADD doesn't get worse although you can have good or bad days. I'm no more stresses than usual and certainly wasn't then. Early senility; I'm far too young. So that leaves the mercury...

This is a recurring theme with me at the moment.

Reasons to be cheerful...

Girlfriend back. Flat might assume some degree of normality now.
I'm getting paranoid about the mercury in my fillings.
Every visit to the dentists has resulted in me coming out in a slightly worse state , teeth-wise , than when I went in. A crown fitted at school for a tooth smashed playing rugger was badly done, and them redone badly several times.
A couple of fillings that were more than likely unnecessary (NHS piece-work)
Then a white filling that 'leaked' (thats the term) so the tooth cracked in half one day after rotting from the inside. Now the latest dentist has repaired it with a massive mercury amalgam filling rather than a crown or white filling.

The amount of mercury found in the brain of cadevers of those with Alzeimers is proportional to the number of fillings they have in their teeth. There is mercury vapour in your mouth when you chew if u have mercury fillings. Mercury amalgam in fillings is well dodgy despite what the BDA say. Anyway, would you trust them? What's the world-wide reputation of British dentists? Piss-poor. I know an eccentric rich american who live in Kensington, London but who flies off to New York every time she wants to visit a dentist. I used to think she was mad. However , you only get one set of adult teeth.
Why let the British wrecking crew at them?
Didn't they have the 'book of British teeth' on The Simpsons once as a horror device used to scare children...
