What Causes Breathing Difficulty, Heart Palpitations And Dizziness After Carbon Dioxide Poisoning?
My girlfriend was exposed to carbon dioxide in a freezer yesterday for about 3 minutes. She experienced racing heart, short of breath, weakness, and dizziness. She still has a headache and a little bit of pressure during deep breaths. Should she go to the ER or is she safe?

What Causes Breathing Difficulty, Heart Palpitations And Dizziness After Carbon Dioxide Poisoning?
Hello, Expose her immediately to fresh air. I think she will not have complications since exposure was short. If she develop more symptoms, go to the ER. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
