As a Cronic CH sufferer for over 5 years I would advise anyone who can to get a script from their doc for O2 therapy, TO GET IT AND TRY, I tried every script drug on the market and some that wheren't to kill the beast, an average day for me was 6 to 18 CH's, I have been on O2 therapy for 1.2 years now and only avg 2 to 6 per day and usually can kill the beast before it hits a 2 on the kip scale, (I start the O2 as soon as I feel the beast knocking).
Note: I have a script for 8 Ltrs of O2 per min as needed for pain, the company that supplies me delivers in 680 ltr tanks (small cart type) at first I used one tank per 2 CH's, now as I've learned to catch the beast as it knocks I use 1 tank per 6 to 8 CH's and have noticed a reduction in CH's as discused above.
Also I'll be happy to give more info on script drugs I have tried, just ask!

I'm Chronic also and have tried many many scripts. I just started the O2 yesterday and so far so good.
I'm doing the 8lpm also. The med company brought 5 E tanks over and will check me in 2 weeks to see if i need refills.
Hope it keeps working cuz life is mo betta with no pain.

Know your right, with us its " no pain, oh what a gain!!"
Hope the O2 works as well for you as it has for me, but it is not a preventive just a quicker end to the beast when it strikes, hope someday they can give us total relief, but till then I'll stick to my O2 unless something better comes along. btw always keep 2 tanks with you as spares if you go out, some of the companies don't check the tanks and you'll get a empty that is susposed to be a new full tank.
