Hi,
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
The chemicals you have been exposed to i the past are all heavy metals and tend to accumulate in the body.
They can affect the body systems like bone marrow, kidneys and nervous system.
It can cause anemia, renal failure, neuropathy, paralysis and even cancers.
You should get a detailed physical examination to rule out any of these complications.
You should also get the serum levels of the metals you have been exposed to.
Some metals can be removed by antidote agents, the regimen your clinician will know.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!
