I just went outside to get something from my car. As soon as I opened the door I got the overpowering scent on rubbing alcohol also. It actually made my heart race and I feel ill. I'm not usually the type to go online and search for something like this. Am I being poisoned? If I'd have jumped in to drive I'd be passed out for sure.

I'm going to search for info and will edit this post as anything's found.
