    If you have not already done so, it would be prudent to follow up
    with your physician and get the dx of mercury toxicity validated by
    blood and/or urine tests. Hair analysis is not always accurate, and
    if you don't believe you have been exposed to mercury, you would be
    wise to make sure that you actually have this condition prior to
    seeking treatment. 

    For what it's worth, there have been several posts to this newsgroup
    over the years from folks who appear to have been assigned a
    questionable diagnosis of metal toxicity on the basis of hair
    analysis, apparently to hook them into paying for chelation therapy.
