Does Exposure To Carbon Monoxide Cause Health Issues?
I m worried carbon monoxide was leaking into my office when the heat was on this past winter. My office wasn t blocked properly, so there was an over abundance of hot air coming into my small space. The temperature would get up to 82 degrees. I often had my door shut, so there wasn t any ventilation. I left work 6 times in 3 months from feeling dizzy and nauseous. I was in my 2nd trimester during this time. Could exposure (in any amount) of carbon monoxide harm the baby or cause problems down the road?

Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Concerning your symptoms of nausea dizziness in an index pregnancy (second trimester) with possible inhaling carbon monoxide I will suggest yes if the quantity is enough it will lead to respiratory depression in your system and regarding your pregnancy there is little or no effect
I hope this helps Regards
