Husband was tested for lead and found out he has a very very high lead level. what can i do to help this and how dangerous is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be dangerous: You husband needs to be taken care of by a doctor. There are ways to remove lead from the body. It would also be important to figure out where he got the lead. If it is from paint in your house, you and especially all children need to be tested immediately.
