Question from Annette Tweedel

Hi Debra, We have two electric heaters that the cords went bad on them. So my husband bought two new cords at Lowes. I just looked on the package and it said the name Utilitech. And I also seen it had a warning on it about chemicals and lead. It is affecting me real bad. My lips feel numb, I feel it on my tongue, my whole body feels shaky or jittery. I cannot think straight. I feel it on my heart. What are we supposed to do? If it is the cord, is there another one you could recommend? Thanks a million.

Debra’s Answer

Annette, I know from your many posts that you are extremely sensitive. It very well could be the cords.

Try wrapping them in foil tape. That should block any outgassing.
