Should I Be Concerned About The Dizziness And Electric Feeling Around Me?
I have COPD and asthma. I use a nebulizer 4 times a day and oxygen at night and awaiting a cpap machine. About 15 min. before my 3rd nub. treatment I starting coughing (nothing new) and I became very dizzy (I was seated) and everything around me seemed to be electrified and there seemed to be a magnetic aura all around me. I probably only lasted a few seconds but should I be concerned?

Hello
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
I understand your concern. By reading your history and symptoms the first two thing I could think of is hypoxemia,low oxygen level in your blood or low levels of sodium and potassium levels,which might cause this dizziness. Please check your Arterial blood gases and serum electrolytes and get further management.
Hope this helps.
