I get tested annually at the VA.
Interesting. I do not believe I have ever had my blood lead level tested at the VA. Is this something you have to request from the primary care doctor?

he romans used lead in food to improve its flavor. the women used it as makeup. they even cooked in lead pots. and their clay jars had lead in them to hold them together.
Get tested. My levels were way high and I felt fine. >50
Might not have known there was a problem with the indoor range where I used to shoot unless I got tested.
My insurance will pay for the test but if yours won't (or it's not covered) cost seems to be between $50-$75.
You can sometimes skip the Dr visit and just go to a lab and have them do it for you.
Lead poisoning is not a joke, it is real, be safe get tested.
What I understand is that the lead in the blood goes directly into the major organs and your bones.And it does not come out.
Don't believe I'd take info off the net.
I've always understood that lead is permanent. The sentiment here is that it isn't permanent.
One of us is wrong, which demonstrates that the net is a bad place to get medical information.
I'm going to check with my doctor.
