oxygen
Hi,
just thought I would start by saying all responses will be gratefully recieved!
As some of you know Im using an oxygen concentrator at home. I use it as soon as I feel breathless rather than wait for my oxygen levels to drop.
I need to know Im not going mad, just looking for some reassurance. Today I was feeling pretty rotten hardly surprising. I was feeling a tiny bit breathless, had that awful fog and fatigue. Oxygen sats were 99% on air. I thought I will put my oxygen on and see how I go. An hour and a half later Im feeling so much better, mentally clearer, breathlessness has gone.
I just need to know that Im not experiencing a placebo affect with the oxygen. That it is making me feel better because I need it. Sorry this probably seems really really daft!
But you know how you start doubting yourself when you are on the diagnosis merry-go-round.
Thanks
Rach
