How to Diagnose Arsenic Toxicity
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam. It can be difficult to make a diagnosis of arsenic poisoning because symptoms are so varied. If you have concerns about arsenic causing symptoms in yourself or a family member be sure to tell these to your doctor. Tests on blood and urine can quickly establish or “rule out” this diagnosis.
Tests may include the following:
- Blood tests
- Urine tests
- Hair or fingernail analysis
