Help me understand what happened?

Everyone who was upstairs was feeling ill. The oven was left on, by someone else so I dont know how long, all day likely. I started feeling short of breath for a few hours , took my inhaler, figured the shortness of breath was just my asthma, but it progressively got worse and I became dizzy and weak. Eventually I realized the oven was left on. I turned it off, opened a bunch of windows and sat next to one and started smelling sulfur. Thought I was crazy for a moment bc I mostly smelled it coming from the windows. But me and the other person sitting next to the window on the couch both kept feeling worse and worse to the point where my vision faded and my while body felt like it was on fire. About 15 minutes after noticing the oven, I yelled for everyone to get out, and almost immediately after getting out i felt relief. We called 911. They took about 15 minutes to get there. By the time they got there they didnt find anything besides the gas meter being near the window. They said its normal for it to burp. But that being next to the window wouldnt cause any symptoms. Is that actually normal and is that true? Would there be more gas burping if an oven had been left on all day? My vitals were mostly normal besides some tachycardia. I felt better the longer I was outside. So did everyone else. Im just a little confused. Is it possible maybe it was the oven? And that opening the windows left nothing to be found? It is a gas oven. I have honestly never felt that ill that fast before. Nothing made it better besides going outside. Normally if I am dizzy and short of breath sitting and having my inhaler helps.

Weird zapping sensation on skull?

23F . History of pituitary insufficiency (adrenal and thyroid), POTs, Endometriosis, Hypermobility, minor issues with my cervical spine (kyphosis, mild disk degeneration and one minor bulging disk, cant remember which one, but doctors said neither are really a big deal at the moment), chronic hives, and IBS-C. I am on cortef, levothyroxine, omeprazole, and linzess. I also take magnesium bc the omeprazole depletes it.

I sometimes get a zapping sensation on a specific spot on my skull (usually on the top right of my scalp further back). Its usually the same spot. It doesnt particularly hurt but it is uncomfortable / annoying/ distracting. It happens randomly as far as i can tell. Right now im in a little more pain that unsual from an endometriosis flare up but im not sure thats related at all. It usually persists for atleast an hour. Sometimes happens multiple times a day for days, sometimes i go weeks without it happening.

What is this? I havent rlly been too worried about it but should I be?

Ignore the username its a bad joke from highschool.
