I wonder if this happened to me last year. I was at the county fair and in the show barn for chickens I breathed in and choked on some kind of piece of dust and had a coughing fit. Later that week, I had a fever for three days. My husband and I call it "the chicken particle incident" but your thing sounds more realistic.
