I was so thrilled to see myself listed as a notable artist in the jewelry making community on Fire Mountain Gem's Website! :)

Denture Cream Lawsuit
http://schmidtandclark.injuryhelpnetwork.com/hyperzincemia
They are only handling the people who were diagnosed with high zinc levels, and Neuropathy.
This was not the case with me. For almost 4 years, I have suffered from severe anaphylactic reactions to almost every food I ate. I had to carry epi pens, and was rushed to the emergency room on a consistent basis for this reason. I was diagnosed with "nerve problems" repeatedly until I finally convinced one doctor I was having an allergic reaction. They dismissed me because I had lost my ex-husband recently and figured I was having nervous reactions from that. I got to the point that the only thing I could eat was organic wheat noodles and organic spinach (I needed the spinach for potassium, came very close to a heart attack according to my doctor, at least once due to low potassium levels).
I lived like this for four years, until my daughter found out about the high zinc levels in the cream. I had quit using it by then, and if I hadn't of it would of probably killed me with what it did to my autoimmune system.
I turned yellow at one time, and my liver started acting up, and I do not drink. I started losing the feeling in my hands and feet, I'm lucky that there was no permanent damage.
After a few years off of the cream, I am doing somewhat better, but I am terrified to try new foods because of the severe reactions I have had previously. (Some grape juice came near to killing me one day, my children were terrified as I was). So many times, so many misdiagnosis, so much trauma (on a daily basis I was terrified to eat, thought the next bite of food might kill me).
I hope the people with permanent nerve damage actually get some compensation for this, and I hope that something like this never happens to anyone else.

PS The ironic thing is my permanent teeth had to be pulled because they were damaged by an antibiotic I was given as an infant to keep me from getting flu, because the rest of the family had it. Yeah, gotta love irony.
