Going to try the O2 one more time
May 28^th, 2010 at 12:40am

Hi all I have a June 2nd appointment with my neuro and going to ask for a prescription for another tank of O2 to try it one more time. Already have the right equipment because years ago tried O2 BUT didnt help me at all. My clusters have been getting better for almost 4 months now. I have even gone down from a 75 mcg/hr fentanyl patch to a 50 mcg/hr patch 2 months ago and I didnt suffer from that and think I will ask neuro to take it down to a 25 mcg/hr when I see him. Also I am only using my 10 mg morphine shots once or twice every other week instead of having to get a presciption for the 12 that I am allowed per month. Even the weather changing didnt effect my clusters so thats good too. Wish me luck maybe its just time for me to be over these clusters or to be over them even being chronic because its been a long hard road for many many years. I will keep you all informed to let you all know how I am doing. Terry

If your O2 equipment is from years ago it is most likely the bare minimum at best by todays CH knowledge. What we are given by the Doc's & O2 suppliers are not the best.

Like the O2pti mask you can get on this site, a regulator that goes to 25lpm and maybe higher. Mine goes to 60lpm, made to order by Flotec.

Please read the "oxygen info" link on the left of your screen.

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of the Beast , I have O2 so I fear him not.
