Yes, toxic possibility for sure. Should get heavy metal testing.
B12 also because of the vision loss. Vit D if he does not go outside much. Testing for both of these is easy...Mayo did not do that?

--is subacute combined degeneration.
B12 deficiency is one of the most common causes of this, but other conditions, including toxic attack, can result in it as well. |
