elevated lead levels???

ok, so at ryan's 9 month appt they took blood to do a lead test. ryan's level came back at 11 and now we have to go to childrens tomorrow for a veinous (sp?) draw to see if it was something wrong with the test. the nurse says this happens and the second draws almost always come back normal and that i shouldn't be worried. of course google says that any lead is awful but doesn't seem to get too excited until it's over 15.

guess what? i'm freaking out. we live in a really old house. like 1906 old. and i very specifically remember turning down the lead paint test when we bought the house and saying that i'm sure it's fine. now i've convinced myself that there's lead paint in our house and we're going to have to move from the house we have ZERO equity in in the crapiest housing market of all time.

anyone have any experience with this??? please talk me down from the ledge!
