A member asked:
Can you get mercury poisoning from bbq charcoal? if you were exposed, could this cause hives tremors lightheadness all the time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: None of these symptoms is associated with bbq charcoal. You need to see an allergist about your hives and perhaps a neurologist about the lightheadedness and tremors. At the least , i would get your thyroid function tested.
