Do you all use the same shampoo, and does it contain zinc?
Do you use a selenium shampoo? This in some people will cause PN symptoms if used too much or too often.
Pyrethrins also can cause long term toxicity issues. This was just in the media.
Also did your family and you ever use a lice treatment, or scabies treatment? Kids bring home these parasites from school, movie theaters and sleep overs. Sometimes a whole family is treated when these critters are found.

Thanks for that Mrs D.
You are so smart!
We don't and haven't used any zinc products and I don't sup with it as I am aware of how it can deplete copper. It's funny that you know this, but NOT one doctor has asked me about it and they all see my labs of copper deficiency. I also am very careful as I'm building my copper back up to keep getting my zinc checked as well to make sure it looks good.
My newest thoughts are on molybdenum and the ways that works with the other minerals in the body. As miserable as all of this is, I find it wildly interesting.
