   How do I know if I have a metal toxicity problem?

   • A good history, physical examination, and appropriate laboratory testing of blood, urine, and other tissues can aid with the diagnosis. The levels of heavy metals in the blood and urine reflect current exposure and not the true tissue levels; a chelation challenge may be needed.
