What Causes Shortness Of Breath With Burning In Chest And Headaches?

I'm currently at work and an employee is painting a fiberglass roof cap in a paint bay. I'm experiencing shortness of breath, the shakes, chest burning and a slight headache. This has happened numerous times over the years but can't afford to complain and lose my job. Is my health in risk ? I'm 54yo white male,5'9",185lbs with no known health problems.
