You don't have Lithium in your body normally, I think you must have misinterpreted something about testing before changing Li dosage. Li is a mood stabiliser stopping both extremes of a 'bipolar illness'. It has a narrow therapeutic index i.e the diffence in blood concentrations between it have a beneficial effect and it being toxic are small. In the realms of pyschopharm doesn't sound like your psychiatrist was being to risqué.
