Guest guest Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 My mercury poisoned child was tested before starting treatments and tested at 97, within 6 months of starting treatment was re-tested a 120. We are now going on 2 years into this and I have a feeling if tested today would be higher still. Michele > > I had testing done at the worst of my mercury poisoning.

A child was injected with 12.5mcg of mercury the first day they were born. This can be compared to a day old infant eating 35 Tuna sandwiches in a single day. Pregnant women were injected with 35 mcg of mercury via Rhogam, This can be compared to eating 100 Tuna sanwiches in one day. Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
