How Common is Heavy Metal Toxicity in CFS/FMS?
How prevalent is Heavy Metal like Mercury Toxicity in CFS/FMS? Is it worth testing for? Thanks.
Answer
Although it may occasionally play some role, I do not consider it to be the major issue. Also , there is simply no reliable testing for heavy metals. So I use other treatments, reserving heavy metal treatments for cases where there is a very suggestive history (eg- Dental office staff, those working in industries with high risks of occupational exposures)
