How Does Everyone Feel About Being On 02 Supplement 24/7, Both Good And Bad. How Do You Manage Going Out When You Want Or Need To?
@A MyCOPDTeam Member As I don't use it 24/7 like some, doesn't mean I would or wouldn't benefit from it. I use it for the things I know I need it for. I try to let my body do the work, if I get a little gassed while doing something outside or away from home, I rest a little and my body rebounds on it's own. I really don't think about going anywhere without it. We're all Different!!
Been on O2 full-time for 2 years now. I also have a portable oxygen concentrator with a carrying case and handle/shoulder strap. The portable gives me approximately 4 hours. It also has a charger for use in car.
Any bad is outweighed by the benefit
@A MyCOPDTeam Member Just remember, having no muscle mass is the best place to Start, being at your Lowest Point is the Best place to Start. If you can only lift a can of soda, lift it 100 times, if you can only walk 20 feet, do it 20 times a Day.......
@A MyCOPDTeam Member the problem with constant flow is you won't get nearly as much time on the battery as the pulse. That being said there are some that you can use pulse dose or constant flow and use it as the time allows for what you want to do. In the g5 Inogen I get about 4 hours on setting 4, but once I get where I'm going I can drop it down to setting 2 and get over 7 hrs more. I have to remember to turn it back up when I am walking around to my car, but there it plugs into my car charger and charges as I drive. I carry a spare charging cable in my car and have had to use it on a couple of occasions.
@A MyCOPDTeam Member you are the best example of getting the most out of life having COPD with exercise and walking and just perseverance and hard work. If I knew then what I have learned on here I would have figured out how to make exercise a priority. Now that I am so weak having lost most of my muscle mass I doubt anything I do is going to make much difference. And I find the same thing you do that the pulse dose of the Inogen isn't enough when I exercise or even just walk around. Keep the videos coming I'm sure a lot of people look forward to them every day.

I'm Wondering Why People Who Struggling To Breathe Unable To Do Anything Don't Go On 02 Supplement.
I Am Wodering What People Who Are On 02 24/7 Are The Settings They Are At, And How Much Exercise They Are Able To Do?
Me Again Asking How Much It Would Affect My 02 To Drive Over The Siskiyous Where The Peak Is Over 7K Ft.
