Hi my daughter is in Utah and she is from Califronia . She has had 3 cases of really bad cramping , abdominal pain , chills , dizzy .. I heard there she can get sick from the altitude .. She also has black stools and has been drinking the tap water .. Someone told me it has high levels of lead ... Here problem with her stomach happens shortly after she has eaten fairly hearty meals .. I m in Ca and she is visiting and I m worried ... Does this sound like too much iron and and altitude issue ?
