Hi I was on another site when I saw this.I suffer with anxiety to after my husband unknowingly took down our asbestos shed .I washed the clothes in our washing machine and the children were outside playing whilst it was done.Ever since then ...which was afew years  ago I have been paranoid about asbestos.in fact it was always on my mind.I've had the same guy out to check inside my house for asbestos 3 times...even though there was none.Luckily he was a lovely guy and humoured me and I joked I was probably his most paranoid customer...which he cheekily agreed to.My dad died recently unexpectedly ( not asbestos or coronavirus related ) and Since coronavirus and the goings on of many people losing their lives.The asbestos thing has really been put into perspective for me ( also with the help of taking high strength St. John's wort tablets off Amazon) I think about how many people have died from coronavirus ( this was easy to find out as we are always told the figures, but please don't move onto worrying about this next) Asbestos deaths are approx 1 in 900 people which equates to about 0.10% of population.really low and this is mainly in people who have worked with it all their lives , true people can have issues that don't but this sends the statistics down even lower.I know googling is the worst thing to do and many are American sites .They have to pay for hospital treatment in America so it doesn't surprise me sites like to sccaremonger.You did the right thing spraying down and wearing a mask .But even if you had t done that is highly unlikely that anything will come of it.I have done loads of research I assure you probrably can't get a more paranoid mummy than me lol.I think you have more chance of getting run over....I have probably googled all the chances of dying from things to compare it with.If you still have the boards you will need some one to remove them now and get rid of the clothes double bag them if they are in house or if outside leave them until someone can take away.These people work with it all the time so they must always have suits otherwise they'd always be exposed.But please try not to worry seen plenty of forums when countless people do the same.We are a total diy nation and asbestos is in loads of homes we aren't all dropping like flies.I know you see asbestos and see red exactly what I was like.But  from a risk assessment point of view it's extremely unlikely you have been affected by it.It likes to get to us worriers and worrying is more likely to cause damage I assure you.Take a deep breath.Rates of asbestosis are going down because people are aware of its potential dangers, where back in the day no one knew hence they continued to work with it.Hence the majority is through many years of workspace exposure.You will be ok!

No problem I hope your feeling a bit better now.People say only 1 fibre can kill but that is rubbish otherwise every single one of us would die from asbestos exposure, as the truth is we are all exposed.it's in the air at extremely low levels it's even in our water.But it's background levels so don't worry about that as well.point is it's extremely unlikely after your one known exposure your going to get ill. Most things happen over a long period of time with significant exposure eg Repeated sunburn may lead to skin cancer but its extremely unlikely even 1 single bad burn would ( and in case your like me and May start a spiral of other things to worry about to lol ,skin cancer is very curable in many cases ) Too much sugar even though may seem harmless can cause diabetes....people with diabetes may be at higher risk of certain cancers.... goodness all those sweets we had as kids and we have made it! )  smoking....can cause heart disease but highly unlikely after afew lungfuls.Alcohol causes cancer and liver problems.You see my point.I have found it also beneficial to watch programmes on anxiety as they often explain how fear works to make you think irrationally.I've seen afew on i player recently good luck .
