: I'm building what will probably be my last epoxy construction due to flu like
: symptoms following exposure, no skin contact simply being in a shop space
: with epoxy and mixing it. Curious if there are more severe medical
: consequences that I'm risking if I am able to push on through this project
: if I get into a series of 6hr recovery periods where I feel like I need to
: curl up in a ball afterwards.

: This isn't an issue of skin contact or respiration,,I can feel it in my face
: like a mild sunburn. I'm exercising more so there's some crossover
: soreness but the flu like symptoms are stronger at an earlier stage than

I worked 45 years around epoxies and some epoxies were worse then others for getting an allergy reaction. I saw some miner reactions and two major one. All were skin reactions. The major reactions included rash blistering in the scalp, mouth arms and hands and other parts of the body. Both did see skin specialist and had to quit working with epoxies. I never saw any flu like symptoms though.
