Description of the problem | My rear view mirror failed and leaked a substance which dripped onto my shift lever. Unknowingly i placed my hand on the lever and was contaminated. I also was breathing the vapors which smelled somewhat like dry cleaning fluid. I have been researching and have found that the substance inside the mirror may be highly toxic. How do i know for sure if i have a problem? If i do what type of treatment do i seek? Thanks |
