According to the Mayo clinic,
"Signs and symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may include:
Dull headache
Weakness
Dizziness
Nausea
Vomiting
Shortness of breath
Confusion
Blurred vision
Loss of consciousness
Carbon monoxide poisoning can be especially dangerous for people who are sleeping or intoxicated. The fumes may be fatal before anyone realizes there's a problem."
Yes, it will kill you. Even though you should realize you have it, you're confused, and just want to lay down. And you never wake up. I tried using a little propane heater. To use it and not die, you need to open windows. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of getting warm when it's cold outside?
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Sleeping bag, long underwear, stocking cap.
I have a carbon monoxide tester, and that's just for the little alcohol stove I have to make coffee. I've slept in my van with the temperature in the teens without any heat, it was cold, but I lived.
