Dammit.
Assume CO poisoning … check your furnaces and have an alarm , people.
…..thought the same……
ditto.
CO detectors are inexpensive, consider having several.
I even have one on the nightstand, level with where my head rests on the pillow.
Carbon Monoxide is slightly lighter than normal air, so higher is better. I got this combo, when my Smoke Alarm was too old. Most detectors should be replaced within 10years.

CO's density is close enough to normal air that it can stratify at any level, hence the above precaution.
CO will actually diffuse and even out. It may take a bit longer if the CO comes in at the top of a space, but it doesn't tend to stratify. For example there is this study -
