Hello Johnsond28, 

If you are unsure you were exposed to asbestos or are worried about it, I think it is advisable to contact your local council and speak to an asbestos officer who should be able to advise you further.

According to the Health and Safety Executive, short term exposure to asbestos will most likely have led to minimal exposure to fibres, and is very unlikely to have any long-term ill health effects. You can read more about this by clicking here. 

It's important to remember that most people have been exposed to low levels of asbestos, as it can be found in soil and air and yet few people become ill from it.

Hope this helps!

Best wishes,
