As ICH said, watch your hygiene when handling lead and avoid casting in small enclosed areas and you will be fine. Wash your hands WELL with hot soapy water after handling lead and keep your hands away from your face as well. No smoking or eating while handling molten lead and you will not have a problem. It is not a bad to have your lead levels checked on a regular basis as well especially if you are handling large quantities of lead.
Also, if you are worried about handling lead, send me a PM and I'll take all of that nasty evil toxic material you care to send me. I have room to store another couple thousand pounds of it.
