Can Coughing Due To Lacquer Staining Cause Lung Problems?

Dr. Rynne, About 5 years ago, I had what doctors were calling a lung infection. my lungs looked liked stain glass windows. That s what I was told and shown. I believe it was due to me using Pine Sol and Comet at the same time. I do not do that anymore. However, we just refinished our kitchen cabinets with a stain, followed by lacquer. I have been coughing from it, and wonder how dangerous that may have been for my lungs? I am assuming, the chemicals will work themselves out of my lungs in time?
