Caller (a (age) year old male) states that he sprayed this product yesterday morning and during application he had the windows open, he wore a dust mask and he had gloves on. He used the can in 12x14 foot room. He could smell it while he was applying the product but he left the room after he finished applying the product and was in fresh air for the rest of the day. He was feeling fine after the exposure but then at 5 am he woke up and was symptomatic. He called an ambulance and is currently in the hospital. He has been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. The caller states that he has never had any heart issues his entire life and this is the only thing new that was introduced. Caller is wondering if symptoms are from exposure to this product.
