Carbon monoxide symptoms: short term

I was just released from the hospital yesterday. I currently have:

chest pain, short breath, speech delay, memory loss, bad vocabulary, dizziness, pressure headaches, stomach pains, off balance, vertigo, eye twitches, drunk feeling, tiredness, concentration problems

and I was exposed to what they say was "low level"

I now have SEVERE panic attacks, anxiety, visual hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, fatigue, cracking and peeling skin on my feet and hands, very painful joints and muscles in my legs, feet, back, and my hands, memory loss, and confusion.

I'm sure there are more symptoms but it has taken time to see them and identify them. These are only the ones that really stick with me off the top of my head.

Tiredness and fatigue, ekg alerted my doctor of heart issues, my math skills are greatly diminished, so are my organization skills. Getting things done/followup is very difficult, memory skills for thing that need to be done or driving direction, relational issues, anger that pops out at strange times, things like crossword puzzles are exceedingly difficult.

Headache, dizziness, chest pain, brain fog, hard to concentrate, chemical sensitivity, extremely tired, can't sleep, blurred vision, irritability, ringing ears, hives, rashes, soft stool, impaired judgement, difficult to talk at times, memory issues.

It has been 6 weeks since I discovered that my brand new gas fireplace was leaking carbon monoxide.

I experienced dizziness, brain fog, pins and needles in my hands, confusion, and felt like I was getting the flu constantly. I was very ill.

After finding out that there was a carbon monoxide problem, I looked back at my health problems and realize that I had dizzy spells, headaches, chest pains, constant fatigue, vertigo, poor appetite for the since the gas fireplace was installed.

The co-poisonings happened to our family over a 2 years period.

A government inspector discovered that carbon monoxide was leaking in from an improperly vented hot water heater.

It is really hard to recall what happened during this time. I only have small flashes of memory from those months... from what I recall I can remember feeling almost intoxicated with headaches, nausea, dizziness.

Its all a blur to me...
