Did a quick google search on Artex removal and found, to my horror,
that, up until the 80's asbestos was used in Artex and that removal is
a specialist job.


It isn't a "specialist job" despite what the cowboy asbestos industry
might say.

Do I have any thing to really worry about?


No. Asbestos injury is very strongly dose/time related. If you had
done that every day for 20 years _then_ you would have something to
worry about.
