    I've eaten a can of tuna ed for months now. Maybe I'll get some bloodwork done just to see.

    Mercury has a short half-life in whole blood and the majority of it will accumulate in tissues, not your bloodstream. Urine tests are used, but a hair follicle test is best.
    If it stayed in the circulatory system, a blood transfusion would be the first-line treatment for mercury poisoning...and it isn't.
