Are you on a slab foundation and well away from neighbors? If so, send your family away until you are done and use a concrete grinding cup on your grinder and it will clean right up.
A word of caution, you need a lead rated mask and good googles. You will want to seal the bathroom off from the rest of the house, open the window and have a fan blowing out.
The dust will get thick and it is known to be cancerous.
If you live in a suburban area it would be safer for your neighbors and your family to hire a crew with the necessary tools with hepa rated filters to catch the dust for removal.
I hope that helps

You'll want to go to your local tool rental or lumbar place to rent a machine to grind it off. It's not an easy thing to do but can be done, good luck!
