Brief Answer:
It is unlikely be due to exposure
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Prolonged exposure of methyl bromide can cause neurological problems like numbness and weakness. However small amount of exposure or exposure for few days does not cause any problem. Your symptoms are non specific and does not seem to be related to methyl bromide. As a first line management you can take drugs like neurobion for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Wishing all the best.
