Guest guest Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Hi Lynn: Yes I am in the process of that now. It was on another board that the thyroid started being discussed and my son has many many of the symptoms. Also found out Mercury likes the thyroid. I had a hair test done and he is not excreting mercury and low in many many minerals including lithium and iodine. 98% high in Copper . We just went to Pfeiffer Clinic and are awaiting more testing which included another hair test. I am no where near ready for chelation as his immune and digestive system is shot to hell. I thought if the thyroid was being affected then I could get him some relief that way as well as supporting his immune and digestive system. So that has led me here.
