When you have pulmonary disease, you may fail to give out carbon dioxide. So the percentage of carbon dioxide increase in your blood. That is the indicator of the severity of the pulmonary disease.
Chemoreceptors detect the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood.
Depending on the levels of hydrogen ions, carbon dioxide is converted into bicarbonate in the blood
Carbon dioxide plays a large role in oxygen transport from the blood to the cells of the brain and body. A reduction in carbon dioxide levels brings with it reduced oxygenation of tissue and vital organs . This can lead to many health problems.

levels of carbon dioxide in the blood. When carbon dioxide levels rise, the breathing center stimulates the muscles of respiration to increase breathing rate and depth. This helps to eliminate excess carbon dioxide and restore a balance in blood gas levels.
There is a part of the brain called the medulla oblongata which detects increased carbon dioxide levels in the blood and triggers the breathing reflex. Breathing then allows the excess carbon dioxide to escape by way of the lungs, as oxygen is acquired.
blood carbon dioxide levels
With increased breathing, levels of carbon dioxide in the blood drop and levels of oxygen rise.

Very, very temporarily--your blood carries it to your lungs, where you exhale it.
