hi…
if the machine is emitting that much of carbon,then it can happen. but its rare as these machines deliver only oxygen.

if the medicines she is taking,contains any sedatives,then she can be drowsy and sleepy. get her blood checked for electrolyte imbalance as well, even this can cause drowsiness
thanks
