Hi Odin,
My dr's comment to the same question: No, it's not bad for you. The only danger is, when using it a lot for long periodes is that your system is getting "lazy", meaning that because of the amount of O2 it's getting used to the inhalation goes to a slower rate. The "wasteproducts" that normaly leave via your longs can build up then. Nothing to worry about, according to him. On the other hand, using a tank per night..... thats a lot of O2. What does your own doc's comment?
Wishing you painfree days, Rob.
