O20 At Night
How do you know if you need 020 at night? I was prescribed it when I was sick but am well now.
You'll need to speak with your pulmonologist and perhaps have a sleep test or an overnight oximetrey test to determine if you no longer need 02 at night. For most of us, that's the first step because… read more
