There was a small gas leak from the stove in the morning, and the house was left open with windows and doors. We were outside for an hour and called poison control, who advised us to watch for symptoms. There were no symptoms, but later in the evening, I started having a headache and sneezing. Could these symptoms be related to the gas leak?
