    my whole family came about an hour away from dying of CO poisoning from a geni during a Minnesota ice storm. I was ten years old and still remember that distinct headache after regaining consciousnes in the entryway of the house with the door open. we always had CO alarms in the house after that.

      @@DoctorODonovan absolutely. our 'alarm' was my brother falling down the stairs and waking our mom. then my dad realized what was happening because he had just had CO training at work. he had to drag me from my bed because I wouldn't wake up. after that, I started having weird symptoms which were diagnosed 15 years later as POTS. it's insane.

      I have a new car model (about 2017) working on diesel and a semi-open garage (I mean there is a ceiling that covers two-thirds of the car but not all the car, three walls but there is no door in the entry).
      Can carbon monoxide still be dangerous if the car's motor remains on, or is it safe even if I forget to put it off and stay inside the garage?@@DoctorODonovan

    Today my mother and I were in our hometown and another city. Both of us got poisoned with carbon monoxide. We are okay now, but symptoms were very bad. Some of the symptoms that stood out the most were extreme muscle weaknes, drowsiness, maybe there were other gases together with carbon monxide.
    Everyone stay healthy, thank you so much for this video.

    I'm trying to learn about carbon dioxide not monoxide poisoning. What I found out is that CO2 poisoning can happen when exposed to gases that come from dry ice. For some reason this information was difficult to find and I don't know why. This occurs more often in small spaces. Even in a small apartment. Carbon dioxide gas from dry ice is extremely dangerous even deadly. I think it could be a perfect weapon because it is very, very hard to detect. We all know about carbon monoxide poisoning but not carbon dioxide dangers. It is curious isn't it?

    I guess flip the electric switch off for the water heater and oven, air out the house, and see what happens over the next few weeks. Plus, get the CO detector.

    Does it cause sleepiness? I’m awake all night fall asleep about 6 am then sleep heavily until after 2. 00pm. Feel nauseous, blurred vision, forgetful, palpitations, confusion, stomachache, sore throat, weakness, breathlessness, dizziness, feel as if I’ve got a virus all the time. I’m disabled, in a wheelchair and sleep on the ground floor in a spare room next to the gas’s fire.

      Thats pre diabetes or just type 2 diabetes... you need to stop eating sugars, foods that have sugars, and no more carbohydrate foods( grains, starchy vegetables, beans, rice, etc)... or you will die.
