Citizen Asks - How can I know if my family is healthy?

Hello,

I'm having a VERY hard time getting my question answered by anyone. We have lived in our home for 10 years and just tested for Radon gas. Tests came back high: 10, 14 and 16.

Today, we are having a venting mitigation system installed.

Is there something we should do for each member of our family (5) to check for any short/long term effects that the Radon gas may have had on us over the past 10 years?

Our local physician says "no." But I am not convinced. Can you answer this question or give me someone (website, phone, etc.) that can help give me some peace of mind?

Thank you
