Does Breathing Of Bleach Cleaner Fumes Cause Any Side Effects?

I got caught-up in cleaning our moldy, mildew, large, glass/tile, two-person shower w/a commercial bleach cleaner. I had our exhaust fan, and after on but no windows open until after I finished. I didn t realize how strong the fumes were until toward the end of cleaning, rinsing everything. I then took a warm shower in the same shower. I was inside the shower for approximately an hour. Now my throat is pretty scratchy and having a very slight problem getting a good breath. Although its pretty chilly outside, I ve opened windows throughout the upstairs where the shower is, and I ve come down to our first floor level and opened our patio door. Anything else I should do, and any side effects I should be on the lookout for?
