Carbon monoxide poisoning from a gas heater can present a range of symptoms that can vary in severity depending on the amount of exposure to the gas. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless gas that is produced when fuel is burned, such as in gas heaters, stoves, or fireplaces. The symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can resemble the flu or other common illnesses, and may include:

1. Headaches
2. Dizziness or lightheadedness
3. Nausea or vomiting
4. Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
5. Confusion or disorientation
6. Blurred vision
7. Weakness or fatigue
8. Chest pain
9. Loss of consciousness or coma

If you suspect that you or someone else may be experiencing carbon monoxide poisoning, it’s important to seek medical attention immediately and to get away from the source of the gas. Carbon monoxide poisoning can be fatal, so it’s important to take steps to prevent exposure to this dangerous gas.
