Guest guest Posted November 17, 2000 Report Share Posted November 17, 2000 It is not just the mercury that is the concern but the total toxic load, including chemicals that won't necessarily show up in a DMSA challenge. If your child is in the middle on 3 or 4 toxic metals, it may be worse than having mercury at double or trip[le the max! Then these are the chemicals. consider everything.
