While not a trained medic etc my thoughts are that a Chest x-ray is required asp and look towards symptons along the lines of Asbestosis.

Material make up may well be similar once airborne (fine fibres) although the Asbestos would be much finer by a considerable magnitude the absorption route into the lungs is the same and the end result is likely to be similar unless the body is able to break down the fibres, which as we all know it cant with the asbestos fibres.

Sorry to put such a dismal spin on the problem and I wish you luck for a good outcome.

Message to all, if the PPE is requried at work for any process, then USE THE ***** STUFF AT HOME as well when doing similar DIY!
