Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

This is a rather difficult query. We will really need to know the compounds you were inhaling. Some of the poisons are inhalation based and can cause trouble in large doses or if you go looking (smelling) for trouble.

I would seriously advice you to get to a hospital, cause if this is a inhalational toxicity, you should be in the hospital emergency department as soon as possible.

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.
