I got my hair test results.

Counting rules don't apply although they say that the Red Calcium and High Mag along with Low Potassium and Sodium are telltale of Mercury toxicity.
>Symptoms and history alone are often enough, most especially if one has or had amalgam fillings in teeth.
I would say that history is also very telling. It wasn't until I went back and charted my disease progression with my dentists visits that I had something really substantial. If I could go all the way back to when I was a kid I would bet the bald spots I had as a young tyke, the periods of heightened anxiety as a child along with 2 bouts of CFS were all preceeded within a year or less of dental work.
>A selenium challenge test is not diagnostic of mercury toxicity.
Maybe not as reliable as some others but it may help steer some to the correct illness. Mercury affects the thyroid, adrenals, pituitary and collects in all glands and organs where it interferes with critical enzymatic reactions.
How many people have followed the merry-go-round of Candida, Parasites, IBS, Thyroid, Adrenal Fatigue, Celiac, MCS and more? Mercury can be responsible for everything that is claimed individually to be responsible for CFS.
If you are hypo-thyroid it could be mercury suppressing the thyroid. If you take a chelator like PectaSol or Chlorella and your low back hurts it might be very likely that you are experiencing a redistribution of mercury to the adrenals.
>There is one FDA approved urine test that indicates damage from toxic metals but doesn't point clearly at whether it was lead or mercury, and it doesn't measure how much toxicity is present.
FDA huh? A bunch of guys from the drug industry pretending to regulate the drug industry. You had better watch out. This year the Supreme Court is going to consider granting blanket lawsuit immunity to drug companies. What a sad day that will be for this country.
