Suggest Treatment For Bloated Abdomen And Foul Taste In The Mouth

I sprayed our floors upstairs with Lysol because the vet told us to disinfect everything, as one of our dogs had a staph infection and now the other one has it. Evidently, I breathed in enough fumes to get a bad taste in the back of my mouth. I took a small drink of Coke to get rid of the taste, but thought afterwards I probably should have swished it and spit it out. I now have a headache and muscle aches, stomach and back. My stomach and back felt kind of hollow, so I thought eating might help. I had some green peas and white macaroni and cheese, and now my stomach is swollen and bloated. I took ibuprofen, too, but my head still hurts. Can this be related?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Mostly Lysol spray when inhaled... causes irritation of mucus membrabe of nose, throat& may lead to bronchitis or asthmatic symptoms in sensitive persons,
The digestive symptoms seem to be as you swallowed the toxins with coke. It has caused irritation of gastric mucosa, indigestion & foul smell in mouth.It may be just gastritis( As it was indirect ingestion of lysol less likely to be serious ... but doubt of Lysol being the cause- you should consult a toxicology specialist & get specific care/ go in ER
Thanks
