It sounds like your doctor may be a little bit of an alarmist. Breathing in a little bit of asbestos shouldn't give you any symptoms at all. Try to relaxThe asbestos fibers are teeeeeny tiny and do not impact your health until you have breathed in enough of them over a long enough period of time for the fibers to get into your lungs and cause inflammation. If you are really concerned I would suggest getting a second opinion. I would definatly get a second opinion before you do something as drastic as applying for worker's comp
Generally, those who develop asbestos-related diseases show no signs of illness for a long time after their first exposure. It can take from 10 to 40 years or more for symptoms of an asbestos-related condition to appear (2).

sorry, I think you misunderstood lol, its not illness from the asbestoes its an allergic reaction from breathing in the air containing the particals. most people are only getting headaches from breathing it all in, but I am extremly sensative to these things. an ILLNESS from the asbestoes would have me sick in general, my thing is only an allergic reaction to being in the same envroment where it is being removed.
