Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Tonight my saturation fell to 31....yes, 31. My husband did not have the "christmas tree' screwed on tight enough and air was escaping. I didn't know this. I got up off one bed and walked to the other room and just fell onto the bed. I grabbed the oximeter and clipped it on. 31...it went to 37 by the time my family came running. My chest was hurting so badly. We used the nitro under my tongue and just waited till the numbers came back up. This man is "mentally challenged" when it comes to changing bottles and tubing. We have had so many near calamaties. He is doing great with the medicine mixing and all the really difficult stuff. It is the simple things that he messes up. I am so wiped out and have a headache. Pray for me. Hugs, Joyce D.
