Got my O2 tanks & a concentrator...
Sep 25^th, 2009 at 8:32am

After some back & forth w/ my Dr., insurance & the O2 company; I finally got my O2 in house. They set me up w/ 2 E tanks w/ an 8 lpm regulator. Needless to say the 15 lpm regulator & O2ptimask are on order.

But my Dr. also put me on O2 therapy while I sleep through an Oxygen Concentrator @ 3 lpm. It's kind of awkward trying to sleep w/ a nasal cannula on w/ O2 blowing in your nose. But my nights & days have been CH free since I've been on the O2 therapy.

I'll keep you guys updated on how everything goes but needless to say I'm a happy man! Grin

You're originally from Canada?!

CH according to Bejeeber:

Strictly relying on doctors for CH treatment is often a prescription that will keep you in a whole lot of PAIN. Doctors are WAY behind in many respects, and they are usually completely unaware of the benefits of high flow 100% O2.

There are lots of effective treatments documented at this site. Take matters into your own hands, learn as much as you can here and at clusterbusters.com, put it into practice, then tell this CH beast Jeebs said hello right before you bash him so hard with a swift uppercut knockout punch that his stupid horns go flinging right off.
