When to test blood for lead

[Guest guest]

I know my son dumps lead when we chelate. I mentioned to his skeptic

ped that I ran a test that showed he's toxic in lead (I didn't mention

the mercury or cadmium) and he wants to run a blood test. The only

reason I even care is b/c we are military and I am trying to cover all

my bases so Tricare will be more likely to pick up the bill for this

alternative stuff we do. So he's put in the order for a blood test and

now I'm wondering when is the best time to chelate so that his lead is

still present in the blood at the time of the test. If I remember

correctly, lead only shows in blood if the exposure has been in the

last 3 days, so if I have the blood draw on day 3 of chelation, is it

more likely to show then?

Thanks for any information!
