...about a year ago. It was 100%, but I did not use the mask. I was given a little tube tat goes underneath my nose. It did not work. I have been with my new neuro about six months now. I read about the mask and thought that I would ask him. He said that he had never heard of this "non re-breathable" mask, or what ever. He told me it was worth a shot. So I went home and printed out a picture of the mask and overnighted it to his nurse. His nurse told my that 100% is 100% and it makes no difference. I told her that you guys said that it must be in one of these masks. Today the oxygen people come to drop off the oxygen at the house. They start to give me a machine that makes its own oxygen (which is not 100% cause my grandma has enfizeema and she said so) and the form did not specify a mask. I was a little up set and told them to take it back cause you guys made it clear what I should first use Oxygen (the right way). Then go to all those meds I was taking. (you guys did not actually tell me this, I juat gathered, ya know). Anyway, my mom called the hospital and had it out with them. Did I do the right thing, or should of I just kept the machine thing? I do not know. It seems that I know more about this stuff than anyone thats around me, even the doctors. (exept you guys) Sorry I did not tell you guys about me or nothing. My parents told me not to give out any info out onto the net cause there are a lot of crazies, like what I've been reading, with that person who is faking who he is that put a virus in someones e-mail. I can't have that happen. Anyway, I'll be here reading, and If I have a question That I can't answer on my own I'll post it, thabks.
