Symptoms of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

November 14, 2013

Many of the early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning aren’t much different than common everyday ailments. If you get any of these, or especially if you get any combination of them, it is always better to be safe. Early symptoms are a dull headache, weakness, dizziness, and shortness of breath. That is usually followed by nausea, confusion, and blurred vision. The final stage is unconsciousness, which can then lead to death. If you don’t have a carbon monoxide detector in your home, get one installed now by calling us at 610-593-5129. Until then, if you feel these symptoms, the first thing you should do is open a window, regardless of how cold it is outside, and then get out of your home.
