Thanks for posting this. My DS started a treatment protocol for pyroleuria four days ago, with lab results indicating he might show signs of mercury chelation as we proceed. It's way too soon to say with certainty, but it sure looks like this may be the case. After being in a really good place all summer, he's been falling apart the past two days. When metals were first mentioned to me last fall, I scoffed. I never had any reason to think they'd be an issue and it all sounded so "out there". I won't have any perspective for many more weeks, but it seems that mercury may be a puzzle piece for him.
