Day 28 of 30

Off late I haven't been feeling very well...had my annual early this year...my doc gave me thumps up after seeing my reports.But i just don't feel good. Don't get deep sleep, have weird dreams, when i wake up next morning, don't feel well rested.

Last few months, its like my energy is zapped..I always attributed to being over weight and was focusing on losing weight..And to be honest i am not super heavy, i need to lost about 10 pounds to get back into my healthy BMI range. 

Couple of months ago, my contacts started to hurt...i thought they weren't clean enough, used another pair, next day same story...went to eye doctor, he checked and said there seem to be some infection and asked me not to wear them for a couple of weeks and i should be fine...i wore my contacts on Monday after six week of wearing glasses...same story...darn something isn't right.

Then in a fluke, i came upon mercury toxicity. I am a healthy eater for the most part...don't eat processed food that much, minimal use of microwave, since I got preggos, have reduced use of cosmetics too. I don't eat fish that often for the fear of mercury content.Guess what, i was avoiding fish fearing mercury, while having mercury sitting in my mouth...oh yes...it never occurred to me, i have mercury fillings in my teeth, conveniently called silver fillings...darn i dint even know it was mercury.

I looked up for mercury toxicity symptoms and guess what i fir the bill to the tee...I have dry mouth, disturbed sleep, metallic taste in mouth...all these things that are never accounted for in your annual checkups...

My reaction...oh god..what do i do now? the only solution...have to cleanse my system of heavy metals and get my filling removed...and then again with the help of google...found a couple of holistic dentists in my area...removal of mercury filings is no joke, it is a very detailed careful process and costs are not pretty...

And to add to the woes, D has a 'silver filling' too...and he got it about 5 years ago and i have mine since 15 yrs..no wonder little A has eczema and food sensitivity...I kept wondering, why she got those problems, while none in our family has skin problems...now I almost found a reason...

As soon as i can walk on my 2 feet, i am going to get my toxicity test done and see if my guess is correct and if yes...then will come the removal and cleanse...and my purse is going to be considerably lighter.

I wonder, how something as dangerous as mercury is used as dental filling...with all the hullaboo about don't eat too much fish...dentists are putting them in our mouths...who do you trust...you cant know everything...

Why this post...to warn anyone who comes across this blog to be aware of the toxicity of these 'silver fillings' and educate people around you. In this toxic laden world, money hungry companies, no one ever realizes that were are killing ourselves...having sick children means a a sick world which seem to be getting sicker to each generation.

Everything we use has things that are not good for your health, shampoo, lipstick and all the cosmetics have parabens which can cause cancer and your food has pesticides and is genetically modified. Why is it so hard to live in tune with nature, why create things that are harmful to life..IS our 'science' all about going against the nature...should it be, how do we make products in tune with nature...why is it so hard?

Day 27 of 30

Its been ages since i wrote to the blog and realized i have never completed my 30 day blogging task...goes it show the focus, determination i have..well don't the actions speak louder than the words.

I will someday finish the 30 posts...this is the 27th, only 3 more to go...but who can ever say, how long it will take 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months or even 3 years...

Since my prev posts..lot of things have happened...oh well..isn't that life, it would be so darn boring if things were to remain the same every single day of the life. 

The most important happening, is that i broke my foot..wondering how...no.no..i wasn't playing any sport nor was running or doing anything close to strenuous physical activity...the simple action of walking and my foot flipping to a side..cause my 5ht metatarsal to break...good news is it was not displaced. This happened about 4 weeks ago..I am on crutches and an air cast boot. I went to the doc yesterday, hoping he will say, all healed, you can now stop hopping and go back to walking on your two wonderful feet..no..that was not what happened..he looked with some intensity at my x-ray and said 'it is healing...but not much' .I couldn't believe it , how can it be, isn't it suppose to significantly heal within in 4 weeks...how much longer i asked, he said, lets see 3 more weeks and if things aren't moving as fast, i will refer to orthopedic surgeon and explore options for surgery...WHAT...walking and flipping...cannot cause all this,wait..walking and flipping cant, but bad luck..oh...with the recent turn of events, i can confidently say bad luck has become my best friend, just doesn't want to part with me.

So, with the recent forced resting, given my limited mobility, i have watched enough junk on youtube, and enough free movies in there, that our bandwidth limit is almost up..so D warned, not to watch any more crap..oh well, how else was i supposed to kill time.I cant go to buy a book, nor can i rent it from library...what, D can bring it for me..yes, he can, but i rather not answer his million questions..

Thanks to my hours and hours of being glued to youtube videos..i have seen product reviews for all makeup products and how to get a certain look. Learned all about detox and cleansing, was so motivated that wanted to get rid of toxins, heavy metals in my body right away, but realized, cant rush to the bathroom with my crutches..so have postponed it to a later date.

Another good thing, that happened is, i am not spending as much, cant go shopping..but will shop with vengence as soon as i can walk on both feet.But i did hop to shoppers drug mart and bought a tinted moisturizer from physicans formula and a mocha kohl pencil from almay.

Thanks to my browsing, i am now sticking as much as possible to dye free, paraben free makeup. And the fact that little A is showing interest in it , makes it very important that she doesnt get exposed to ahrsh chemicals so young.

So, i am planning on making my own homemade kohl and lip stick/lip gloss...will tell how that goes..

So, that was it...Life is keeping me occupied..if i have time to spend, i am spending browsing the internet...what would have happened to me, if there was no internet...maybe i would have read a good book, did some floor exercises and meditate   :)
