Hello
As you suspecting "MERCURY " poisoning , so I am writing here some diagnostic feature for this.
Chronic exposure to metal mercury produces a characteristic intention tremor & mercurial ""ERETHISM"": excitability memory loss , insomnia timidity and delirium.
On neurobehavioral tests=== decreased motor speed , visual scanning , verbal & visual memory .
Organic mercury is the best measured by levels in the blood ( if recent poisoning ) or in hairs ( if suspecting chronic );Hairs MERCURY >30 nmol/g( 6 microg/g).
Hope this will be helpful for you.
