Soooooooooooooo it turns out all that render i've been bathed in for the past year gots the lead.

Personally being genX i have a fatalistic view of life, raging systemic lead poisoning and zero shits anyway, but husband is losing his mind so off for a blood test i go.

There is such a thing as chelation to reduce lead levels in the blood. Check for compatibility with any current medication though, as it may remove that from the bloodstream too.
