Radha Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 do any of you have your own oxygen tank and use it for the rapid heartbeat or the brain fog? i find that using it at 6 liters helps to slow my heart down when it races and helps when i feel faint or very foggy, not everytime, but better than nothing! do any of you why this would help? too little blood going to brain? so too little oxygen? thanksradha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgan617 Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 i haven't heard of anyone else on the site using O2 to help. if you need six liters to help you breathe, i am assuming you have a lung disorder? that is a lot of oxygen. i'd be interested to know if anyone else uses it and whether you have other problems? morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackwolf Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 I don't use O2, but sometimes wish I had it. There are days when I'm so short of breath, or just feel "tight". I do agree with Morgan though, 6 litters seems like a lot. Even at my worst in the hospital I was rarely on more than 2 or 3 litters. Best of luck with your breathing troubles.Blackwolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radha Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I dont use oxygen usually because of breathing difficulties, more for the rapid pulse or brain fog, but was wondering if this helps anyone else with these symptoms, i also take toprol and digoxin, thanks for replyingradha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
