I had rare mesothelial cells found in some fluid taken out of the area around my lungs. No malignant cells were seen. I have scaring seen in X rays of my lungs. I just found out that I was most likely exposed to asbestos for several years of ceiling replacement work I did. Does anyone know if I am heading for mesothelioma? Is there anything I can do to prevent it?

Asbestos exposure does increase your risk of mesothelioma (and of lung cancer – MUCH MORE so if you also smoke). If no malignant cells were found there is yet no sign of a clear mesothelioma but your pleural fluid with mesothelial cells must be regarded as a warning sign. There is unfortunately no preventive therapy.
