Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'm in Europe and I see no way to get such tests. Other than lying and saying that you are at risk of contamination ("My hobby was glassworking"), I never saw any kind of test that you could pay yourself. Everywhere the government says "100% reimbursed", but you cannot even order one by yourself unless you have a good reason. So, I don't even know if it's expensive or not.

A friend got a routine physical and blood screening last week and to my surprise it included testing for lead acetate. I've never seen that before.
