El Grifo; I've just read the MSDS Stu666 linked to. It reminds me of a similar thing that happened to me some years ago. I was refurbishing an old bike and after removing all the old paint, re-sprayed it in my cellar. Rather stupidly, I didn't use any PPE to protect myself either from the old paint dust, or the fumes from the new paint. A few days later, I developed something of a chest problem; went to the Army MO who misdiagnosed Asthma; overnight I had gone from a physically fit soldier, to someone who struggled to pass the Army Basic Fitness test. It took a long time to work out what had happened (in fact, after I left the military); it was almost (99.9%) certainly down to that bike and the paint (can't be 100% as I don't have the tech data for the paint I used all those years ago).

For what it's worth, my advice is to go see a doctor and tell him everything that happened.
