As for the urine tests not being reliable - I really find it hard to

believe that they wouldn't pick up ANY percury whilst chelating. The

test picked up everything else.

The blood mercury explains my frequent metallic taste and other symptoms.

I have been chelating with the DMSA for over a year, with no

improvements. This is why I am so concerned that I am actually doing

more damage than good. Something surely isn't right if I am not

excreting the stuff on round.
