Hi Rob,
I gave up all meds and only use O2. You are right there doesn't seem to be any neg. side effects.
I get 100% relief in only a few minutes most of the time. Some have posted that O2 only works if they start soon enough, others say O2 stops the pain but it comes back if they stop too soon.
With me it doesn't mater when I start, it usually will cut the pain in half on the first breath and I'm PF in 3 or 4 minutes. If I start the oxygen real early in the attack it will stop the pain but may return in a few minutes. So???
I think the key to oxygen success is breathing 100% pure O2.
This works for me,
Good luck
Rick
