Sault-based tournament angler and Algoma Fish and Game Club member Jason Doyon was diagnosed with mercury poisoning from eating fish last year.
Doyon was experiencing a multitude of symptoms affecting both his physical and mental state.
“Extreme muscle weakness, muscle fatigue. I was walking around like I was drunk all the time, my gait was off. I was stumbling a lot all over the place. I was moody all the time, I couldn’t focus. Lethargic, tired, cold,” he said.
Doyon was diagnosed with mercury poisoning last year after undergoing almost every sort of test imaginable beginning in December 2019. Prior to the diagnosis, the tournament angler would eat fish up to four times a week.
