Disc Type Oxygen Conserver Tubing Is Too Rigid, Heavy And Hurts My Nose. Are There Smaller Units?
I use 3 lpm from a concentrator at home using a normal cannula. The doctor says I can extend the use time on my oxygen tanks using a conserver, but it really hurts me. I may just have to keep on trying and eventually get use to it.
I also use the soft cannula and they are much more comfortable. I think they say Salter Labs 7 foot soft. Your oxygen company should be able to get them for you.
Martie, ask your oxygen Co if they have the soft cannulas for your concentrator at home. mine don't, but they do carry the soft ones for your portable tanks. The cannulas hurt my nose too, so I got on amazon and ordered me the 7 foot cannulas very super soft for my concentrator and I love them. I think I got 100 cannulas for maybe $50 and that's been 2 or 3 years ago. If your interested in ordering some just type in super soft cannulas. It was worth it for me.
Ask your oxygen company if the have soft cannulas. mine does.
My company only hires respitory therapist. They are available to me 24/7.However, I have been told I am the most critical care patient at home & not on hospice.I'm not ready to give up!Find the will within you & FIGHT! Kathy
Talk to the people who work where you get your oxygen tanks. They have really helped me when I have a problem with the tubing.
