Can very brief asbestos exposures cause cancer?
Gman asked:
I think I might inadvertently esporrmi asbestos. What? happened? I was going to put some hooks on the ceiling that required drilling a small shaft in the ceiling. In order to make sure that I wasn 't that gets close to all the electrical connections have continued to look up into the unfinished attic. Lifting the cover on the small grant access to space, I discovered a met? of fluffy insulation to dark gray, which was skipped in isolation under the fiberglass. At this point, I backed away and not have continued to crawl around in the attic, however, this stuff (rockwool COULD be, not for sure anyway) was around a thecover so to I know that I have definitely stirred up . If it helps, my apartment? was built between 1974 to 1968 in. I 'the VE has told some people about this and tell me that highly doubt that asbestos loose fill material? been used. What types think or know?

no. very, very doubtful. Mesothelioma is a very, very, VERY rare disease, and people who are exposed to asbestos A LOT, mostly don’t get it. So I wouldn’t sweat about this.
