How do you know if you have heavy metal toxicity? I have been tested for mercury and it came back neg...but I'm wondering about other heavy metals.

I have been using oil paints for the past five years and remember having cadmium paints on my skin, maybe titanium or cobalt...

Thoughts? should I tell my lld?

There is a test for heavy metal allergy. The test is called the Melisa test.

http://www.melisa.org/called the Melisa test.

You may want to know that not a lot of evidenced based medicine surrounds it, so some insurance plans may not cover it. Not many doctors have heard of it. They will ship you a kit (King James Lab) if you pursue testing. You must get your doctor to order it and find a lab to draw the blood. You also have to pay to have the blood fed-ex'd there.
