Guest guest Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 , LOL, I think your right....nothings safe anymore. Kidding aside, my son was high in Antimony (plus a bunch of other metals), but this one can come from things that have been treated with flame-retardant chemicals. Some kids clothes (mainly p.j.'s), new mattresses, etc. I read a post on the Aut/Mercury list that someone said these gases are released and hang about 4-5 inches above the mattress. Just about where a kid can suck more crap into their lungs....(not good for a kid who obviously can't detox this stuff on his own).....so, I'm hoping the allergen cover will help. I asked the salesperson when we purchased the mattresses recently if they make them without all the chemicals, big fat " No " was the answer.....(sigh). I'm so busy trying to get these damn metals out and you're right, it is very discouraging. Hang in there though, didn't mean to be the bearer of bad news.
