Guest guest Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 ML... I was just thinking about you. Are you feeling better this evening? I've been so lazy today but I don't care. I've done a few things but for dinner tonight we had a chili salad from 's so no cooking or dishes. Goodie! I didn't realize you are on O2 24/7 ML. Does it bother your nose? MamaSher, age 69.

I have remained on oxygen for 10 months now, but have been on 5 liters 24/7 for many months. I only put it on 6-7 when cooking, laundry or work around the apt. Sometimes not. I do find that with my oximeter around my neck checking the 'sats' that on #5, it drops to 85 and lower, so I put it on 6-7 when moving around. For sleeping and otherwise, 24/7 is at #5 all the time. I have tried sitting on the couch with oximeter on and no oxygen on for 10 min. and I can not go more than 1 minute without oxygen or my sats go down below 80. It is amazing that I trully need it 24/7 LouIPF '02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
