    Richard, Are you using mercury free solder? A good source of
    information for you would be the University of Colorado School of
    Medicine library. Anyone can go in to research information. Look for
    Goodman and Gillman's Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. There
    should be an entire section on mercury toxicity. The latest edition
    (10th) starts on page 1857 to 1862. You should seek treatment from
    your physician for this. If he is unaware of what to do, call the
    college of pharmacy at U of C. You need to find the source of this
    ASAP. It will go into the brain with resulting possible psychosis if
    the situation (exposure) is not stopped. It needs to be purged from
    your system as quickly as possible. I'd also suggest calling your
    local poison control center, number available in your phone book.
    They can also help. I'm sorry if this sounds so drastic. I'm not
    trying to alarm you but mercury toxicity is nothing to let slide. 
    Please take action quickly. Sue and Harry (RN, and Ph.D. and MD
    student)
