Can I get some recommendations where I can get metal ions tested in Europe?


Thanks

 :) Probably anywhere that does blood tests.
From memory it is a serum test Parts per billion or million. Pretty standard test.
Email someone like Dr De Smet and ask.
Your original Dr should be able to prescribe a test sheet for the labs to sort out.
I did this from NZ and he was in Belguim.
Not sure what part of Europe you are in.
So should be no different.
