Doubtful: What was the concentration of asbestic during exposure did you see asbestos particles in the air, was it a closed, small space? Any cough shortly after exposure, runny nose...allergic type reaction...sounds like this was not a significant exposure...but if you have or develop asthma, cough, fever or pleuritic type chest pain then talk to your doctor bty, trouble taking a deep breath not abnormal
