<prompt> Human: EDIT: Okay everyone, Im back from AE the emergency room. Thank you for everyone who manhandled me via the internet to get medical attention - I did and Im back after over 8 hours of fun. Its now 2:20AM UK.I rang our non emergency number and was told I needed to go to hospital. After dicking about with waiting for an ambulance, getting a taxi, getting booked in, waiting for a check up and then waiting for a doctor, I did begin to feel slightly better.I had a blood test done and was told that basically although I WASNT poisoned, I DID have a very nasty virus that was showing IDENTICAL symptoms to poisoning. The doctor told me that he wasnt surprised I came in and that its better to be safe than sorry and end up dead whilst I slept in a gas tank that could have been my flat.Ive been told that not only should I buy one tomorrow as planned, but to keep my windows open for ventilation, the boiler off and to stay in bed and drink my weight in water. However he did warn me that my carbon monoxide levels were slightly higher than what is considered normal normal is like 0.9 and mine was nearing 4.7. He said there could be a leak nearby, maybe in a flat below or across from me, so buying a sensor is a must in case it gets any worse or effects my own boiler.Im still going to talk to my landlord about this and to have my boiler checked and maybe replaced, as well as get them to check up on my neighbours boilers. It might not be our flat complex but its still better to be safe than sorry, even if all of us in this block are just of typical student age.Once again, thank you very much and let this be a lesson to anyone else who is sat twiddling their thumbs wondering whether or not they should get medical advice - GO BECAUSE ITS BETTER TO BE SAT BORED IN AE THAN TO BE DEAD IN LESS THAN TWO HOURS. OR WORSE.Ive been living in this flat for just under nine months now, private housing for students. For the past few months now, whenever my boyfriend has visited, hes had persistent headaches, stomach aches and just generally feeling ill. Recently Ive been getting worse and worse headaches with one now and at night, Ive been feeling short of breath again now too. Ive also been having lots of emotional mood swings from being a-okay to violent crying and back again. My boyfriend visited this weekend and having just left, asked me to buy a carbon monoxide sensor. Looking up the symptoms on the NHS website, Im genuinely worried this may be a thing.So now the help - I would like some advice with how to deal with the situation with the landlord. Should I withhold rent until the problem is fixed? Should I ask for rent back due to living in an inhospitable situation? What would be the best way to approach this situation, even if in terms of tact with dealing here.Baring in mind also, my landlord isnt the most reliable - my bedroom window has been broken for almost the entire him Ive been here and despite constant asking, all thats happened is a man take off a metal barrier, break open the window and it be flagged up by my landlord in their database.Help?Assistant: In the US, you could the non emergency police line and they will send firefighters over to examine your home to assess for safety. NOt sure if this is true where you live. Human: UK, though I will check.  <response>: Evacuate the building, call your emergency number, and have the fire department check the carbon monoxide levels. This is their job, you are not hindering them, only endangering your and your neighbors lives.
