Roll down the window fast and get some fresh air before you suffocate! LOL
Seriously, is the AC still putting out cold air, if it lost the freon, it shouldn't blow cold anymore, in fact, on some systems if the pressure drops too low, the AC compressor clutch won't even engage either, so check for this condition.
the other more complex problem could be a leak in the heater core but this should smell like antifreeze and if on defrost, will blow vapor out the vents and fug up the inside of the windows.
