O²- and time factor?

Last evening the beast hit head on, seamed like 7-8 on the Kip. Tried O2 but didn’t work, My wife said I used it to short, Is the time factor (10 min at 12 lt. flow/min with a re-breathable mask) that important, or can it happen that at times O2 just doesn’t do ? (during the same cycle). Just didn’t have the patience, and had to walk the beast so just used the O2 for like 7-8 min only, and then resorted to Zomig nasal which did work, and I hate using the Zomig, trying to avoid meds, mainly triptans. What I will add to my med kit is Red bull - my boys think its jelly-beans in liquid form, “puffy” to me it has the flavor of cough sirup with a sweet disguise, but like some of you say it does help and its sort of non expensive in Switzerland, or better in Austria-where they make it.

The O2 levels in your blood on a NRB or any O2 delivery sysem will have made its complete changes within 20mins. ( Assuming of course that is no underlying lung disease) So within 15-20mins should be enough. Yes, I think that there are just times that you are going to dance with the beast no matter what you do. Keep at my brother.

You should be using a Non-rebreather mask.

I always gave the oxygen 20 minutes at most to work. If it didn't work by then (which this last cycle it always did using a Clustermasx), then basically I'd be chit outta luck and have to ride it out.

With a regular (non-clustermasx) non-rebreather maske, O2 would do the trick after 12-13 minutes.
I have the clustermasx now, but I'm not in cycle yet.
