Gary,
You may recall we have corresponded by e-mail a couple of times regarding emotional responses and coping, etc. I agree with you.
The reason I use 15 liters/min FOR NO MORE THAN A MINUTE is precicely for the purpose of establishing the emotional control we spoke about while being able to keep the mask on.
There is nothing instinctive about my choice of the stool. Been doing this daily for 10 years. I have fallen asleep and drained an e-tank more than once, so I know from where I speak. I use a short stool for optimum body position; one of those combination step-stool and tool box units by Rubbermaid. Great for storing CH supplies as well.
Thanks for your follow-up.
