No.

These are the 2 best tests.
I strongly favor the hair test.
Testing isn't useless, you're falling into the trap of black and white thin=
king. It's all just probabilities - which test results are likely to come =
out in such a way that the probabilities of your child having X or Y or Z g=
et close enough to 0 or 1 that it is worthwhile trying something to see if =
it helps. The ultimate test is always a therapeutic trial.
There is a certain amount of inference you can make from other testing if y=
ou happen to have it. Sometimes you're lucky enough that it is a pretty st=
rong inference (a high probability) without needing a hair or porphyrin tes=
t.
Usually the cheapest and easiest way to get to high certainty is to try che=
lation (or whatever else you are thinking of).
