[quote=Anonymous]That's terrible and I'm sorry to hear it. First off, start drinking bottled water (maybe get a water delivery service) immediately (and don't forget to use the safe water for cooking too). I would guess the county is testing water at their facilities. But the lead might be coming in from the main pipes that carry it out of the main facility and to your house. I would doubt the faucets are a problem if they are 5 years old max (though are there disparities in lead levels if you test the water from each faucet? That might give you a clue). Who did your testing? Was it all home kits you did yourself? The lead safe momma website might be a helpful resource about testing. Also, curious what kind of health issues you've been having. Have you all had your lead levels checked? Make sure you get precise lead levels ,(not just a test that tells you if you are over or under the "safe" cutoff, which is much too high IMO). [/quote]
