Have i given myself mercury poisoning? Scared!

[Midnight-mouse]

Usually nobody eats 8 slices all in one go.

I love fish, eat it multiple times a week every week, sometimes most days.

You would have to take the package away from me to stop me eating all of it, then I would still go back for more. I adore salmon, and have and would happily eat the whole lot, especially on a bagel with cream cheese... YUM!

Same here - I really struggle to make even a large package of smoked salmon last more than a couple of days. I regularly eat 8 slices over a 2-day period, probably about once a week.

Thanks your comments are a lot of help. I usually don't eat that much fish. Not sure if the packaging said anything about mercury. I will check that when I'm in the shop next.

I couldn't get an appointment at the docs today. Its still on my mind.
I've been experiencing pins and needles on my feet since last night. All these are coming out of nowhere.

I really would advise against seeing a doctor for this unless you want to be the topic of conversation and some giggles around the water cooler.

They've come out of extreme anxiety, and convincing yourself you have mercury poisoning. You do NOT need to waste the time of a doctor about eating a fair bit of fish in a week !!!! Honestly, I know you are frightened, but a doctor might honestly think you are a taking the pee by saying that is why you are visiting.
