Is dried epoxy toxic?

I can tell you from first hand experience that the DUST from dried epoxy will wreck your world. If you are going to be sanding the epoxy, do it outside and wear a sealing rubber face mask with removable filters (not one of those cheesy paper cup things with the underwear strap in it). I breathed in copious amounts of that stuff when I was sanding it and for 2 days I was super dizzy, puking, short of breath, no equalibrium at all (couldn’t walk), and had a splitting migraine. This was a crushing blow to my very strong (nearly invincible) immune system and I rolled out of the poisoning phase into a terrible flu/cold phase which lasted about 3 weeks and it really kicked my as5. Also, (just common sense, no experience) I wouldn’t put the epoxy anywhere where it will get hot. I’m sure that the only thing worse than breathing epoxy dust is breathing vaporized epoxy.
