Hi dr. Anitha, thanks for your answer, but it's the mesothelioma im worried about most. If let's say I created dust by the small renovation, that dust will remain in the house. Also I know chrysotile creates asbestosis for long term exposure but this glue might have other asbesto's. Is one time exposure to other asbestos bad?
Hi, please stop worrying. A single exposure will not cause any untoward effects. Asbestosis is a disease that involves a scarring of lung tissue as a result of breathing in asbestos fibers. You have to be exposed for long for the scarring to occur, so please dont worry. If doubtful consult your doctor for lung function tests. Regards.
FORGOT TO ADD: Getting anxiety for those asbestos related diseases and can't stop worrying but osha said with caution that you can remove it with water and scraping but no sanding or grinding.
