Could it be Carbon monoxide?

kk

Yesterday morning I woke up with a headache and it lasted throughout the whole day only going away when I took some ibuprofen. It seemed to be gone when I woke up this morning but I just woke up from a nap and it is back. It is on the left side of my head. There are no other symptoms that I know of. I have two cats and a guinea pig so I figured they would be showing symptoms before I do, but they don't. I just want to be sure. I live in an apartment, my heat is not on yet, and I don't have a car to go pick up a detector. I know I am probably just being paranoid but any answers will be helpful. Thanks :)

Answer
You can be picking up CARBON Monoxide from passing cars too sweety. I would take vitamin ( B ) & ( C ) for that w/ motrin 400 mgs every four hours. Vitamins once a day

is a level 6 cardon monoxide really bad?

if it is can you still live in your house

Answer
Most home carbon monoxide detectors report in parts per million rather than "level". 400 parts per million will kill you. 50 parts per million is the limit for workplace exposure. 30 parts per million will give you a headache. I would be concerned at any consistent reading over 10 parts per million and would try very hard to find the problem and eliminate it. Carbon monoxide is the leading cause of poisoning death in the US, accounting for over 1,500 fatalities per year.
