They went into the home approximately 2 hours after it was treated for cockroaches. The caller denies having any direct exposure to the product. The caller immediately developed above listed symptoms upon entering the home. She entered the home approximately 45 minutes prior to calling. The caller left the treated residence and went home prior to calling medical. Someone told her fresh air will help. At the time of calling she is drinking ice water and getting fresh air. The caller reported she is still experiencing symptoms at this time. The caller was advised to seek medical treatment, however at the time of the follow-up call, the caller did not seek medical treatment.
