I ate prosciutto that expired nearly two months ago what will happen?

Question

I cooked it until it had the same crisp as bacon and put it on sandwich, but it didn't taste right so I took it off after a couple bites. The meat didn't look bad or feel any different, but when I was cooking it it smelled weird and didn't taste right. It was refrigerated and in a sealed package. I feel a little sick now and don't know if it's paranoia, since it started after I saw the date, or real.

Prosciutto is an air dried ham from Italy, to make it they salt and spiced a whole pork leg, then air dry it in a warm drafty room for 18-24 months with no refrigeration, as you cooked it there is no chance of it harming you, if the product was in the frig before you consumed it, your not likely to feel anything, I have bought big pieces and the end shanks for sauce and used them for months after I purchased them, you are not going to be sick or have food poisoning...
