Thought I’d come back after my message and tell you all to hang in there. I guess someone is trying to investigate our issues with the denture cream, as they attempted to contact me. But, I missed them.

At least someone is listening so take heart! I saw a local add on TV tonight that showed another Lawyer firm investigating too. It means that something is going to end up being done.

I’d like to know where the Food & Drug people were who didn’t check these two companies products? Vitamins and Minerals might be good for the body but, not in huge amounts at any time. People just trust stuff you put in your mouth all the time. You don’t know there is zinc in a bonding agent. You can buy it at your local grocery store.

I would like a lawyer to tell me why these companies could allow it. And, if it is part of their secret recipe-it should still be checked for safety, all the same. How difficult could it be or expensive to put a notice in or on the box, like they just started doing???

It’s like a person can’t trust Big Businesses. Commodities are steady money makers, even in bad times. People have a need that is measurable, daily-weekly-monthly-yearly. Dependable. I think, as a consumer-we should begin taking more notice of things we use, in this way, as to their real safety! Someone has dropped the ball a lot lately. And everyday Americans are being hurt. Who could’ve guessed at the suffering by the use of Denture Cream!
How many seniors and MediCal persons use this stuff; have used it?
The statistics must be staggering. And do we export it?
This is where the profits could be. But, at what cost? I feel like a lab rat!
Well, I know this isn’t for blogging but, I am really angry about this and the potential it has for harm. Yet, I want those of you who are wondering about this, to make companies take notice, that we citizens deserve better than being thier lab rats for profits, at any cost! We have a voice and a vote, Let’s use them to change these companies and the legislation that lets them get away with it.

I’m between doctors. Mine went to another business and left MediCal. But, when I go to this new one, I am going to ask them what I do about this and my symptoms I’m having and see if He/She can tell me more about it. But I took a blood test a while back and no one mentioned a high Zinc level. Does it take a special test? If the doctor wasn’t looking for it, would he find it in a normal test. I don’t mean to scare anyone and I am sorry if I have but, this is just plain wrong.
I would like answers to some of my questions from the companies.

This is an outrage that an American business would know that their product could pose a danger and not care about anything more than their profits! And with such profits, maybe they didn’t worry since the profit margin would out weigh the determined costs of any lawsuits they ended up with! They remind me of some past car manufacturer’s like the “Pinto”! If they have put profit over safety, they need to be brought to task not, just be allowed to walk away with a warning and a slap on the wrist! I never wore dentures before 2004 and I have a full set. I am on a fixed income and now I don’t have the ommediate funds to pay for a new set so, I am stuck until I can save up and in this economy and no dentist aid, I’m stuck with being possibly poisoned for a while yet, just to eat and do my volunteer work. I use as little as possible yet, nothing else is affordable for me. The companies need to change their recipe to make it safe and non-toxic or something for people like me.
