What Causes Nausea After Exposure To Plastic Fumes?

I lit a fire in the wood stove. I didn t realize that there was a plastic chimney sweep on top. After about 20 mins I realized it had melted. I opened all the windows and doors. After about an hour after not being in that room, I started to feel a bit nauseous. About 12 hours after the ordeal I woke up and had to throw up, which I did. All day today I have felt very nauseous and been throwing up with aches and pains in my legs, almost flu like. Could it be due to the plastic fumes or a bug?
