I have very high results from a 24 hour heavy metals test...

A little more background i am completely disabled from military service so i dont work, i dont have any hobbies that would expose me to anything, i dont live in an area where there is a lot of arsenic in the water table (although i do have well water... we do not drink it but we do bath and cook with it i am getting it tested) i do not eat a lot of fish or seafood or rice and i dont eat a lot of fruits or drink wine... the only symptoms i am showing outwardly is the keratosis on my feet. my blood test was clear, but the urine is as follows

ARSENIC(INORG),URINE*
(V2)
NONE
DETECTED
ug/24hrs
(0-19)
Final

ARSENIC* (V2)
142 High
ug/24hrs
(0-50)
Final

ARSENIC,URINE 24HR*
(BU/SY/CN/AL)
270 High
ug/24 hr
(0-50)
Final

The VA doesnt seems to want to do much other than send me to a nuerologist to see if this might be why i have memory loss...  what should i do for this?
