Can epoxy putty fumes or dust affect your health?

Posted in Off Topic

I've worked with epoxy putty nearly all my life as my main sculpting material on custom figures. I finally bought a dremel last year which greatly increased my productivity but it also increased the amount of epoxy putty I needed to use (I currently have 17 empty Loctite bottles sitting on my desk). And over the years it hadn't even occured to me that it may have been affecting my health. And I think this would be the only place where I could get a good answer for this question. So can breathing in the fumes when mixing the putty or the dust that comes from sanding the hardened putty harm you in any serious ways?
