What is carbon monoxide poisoning?
Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs when you breathe in even small amounts of the gas.
You can't see, smell or taste carbon monoxide so you won’t know it is there. You won’t necessarily notice the smell of gas.
If you breathe in CO, it gets into your blood stream and prevents your red blood cells from carrying oxygen. Without oxygen the body tissue and cells die.
Levels that do not kill can cause serious harm to health if breathed in over a long period. Paralysis and brain damage can be caused as a result of exposure to CO.
Remember the six main symptoms to look out for:
Headaches
Dizziness
Nausea
Breathlessness
Collapse
Loss of consciousness
