Hi Docs,
I woke up in the morning for work and the water supply had been shut off by the water department and so I had to use the water held in the tank on the roof of the house. I hate cold water, so I had some water boiled and then I filled a bucket up with cold water and placed the hot water in to warm it a little before beginning to bathe myself.
It was only after I began brushing my teeth did I realize the water smelled really funny. It smelled like poop. I immediately rinsed my mouth with some drinking water (boiled the previous night) and had the tank on the roof checked out. There was a dead squirrel floating in the tank.
So now I exposed my body, my head, face, eyes, genitals and every place you can imagine to dead squirrel water.
I plan on immediately having a good wash (with a household anit-bacterial Dettol) once the normal water supply is turned on. But I'm unsure if I should be worried about any medical issues I may now get from bathing in such unclean water.
My details are as follows:
