OXYGEN HEALTH SECRETS

ibykr8s asked:


Hi all, my father-in-law has had 2 heart attacks in the past 3 years requiring stints. 52 years old, 6 feet tall, 250 lbs. No exercise or diet programs followed, still smokes a pack a day. He recently passed out 2-3 times (twice while getting out of bed in the middle of the night, once on toilet), went to the hospital. They gave him breathing treatments, told him he has emphysema and kept him for 4 days for low blood oxygen (low 80’s). He came back home for 7 days, started getting around better, then started having trouble btreathing again & went to the hospital. When he got there, they drew blood and said his blood oxygen level was 52%. He is showing signs of: memory loss, confusion, deep sleep, and now hallucinations. Doctors have run EKG, CAT Scan – not sure why his blood oxygen is low, but found a weak muscle in his heart. Now they are in the process of transferring him to a larger hospital to see a heart specialist.

Any ideas on what could be happening

How do corticosteroids work and why would they be prescribed to a pulmonary fibrosis patient?

I took my 6 year old to the Dr. this evening for breathing problems. For the past few days as he’s been watching cartoons or playing with his toys I noticed that he was loudly sighing an breathing in deeply as if to catch his breath or trying to get a deep breath in. I noticed him doing it alot over the past few days. Then this afternoon in the car he specifically told me that he was having a hard time breathing. (so I knew then that it was not just me being paraniod.) We took him to his doctor last year for this same thing. This time they sent him to the pediatric lung Dr. She said he is getting plenty of oxygen and that his lungs are perfect and that he is very healthy. She said that he has what is called “Periodic Breathing” and that he will grow out of it, she stated that she sees many children with it. I have never heard of this and I searched the web and only found instances of it in infants not older children. Does anyone know anything of this or have any info on it?

My granny is 88 and has breast cancer, one breast was removed when she was 65. She still takes a lot of cancer and other medications. She has one kidney, heart and breathing problems. She needs a wheel chair and oxygen and is in a nursing home. Two times water between her lungs were removed. Now she has water between her lungs again. She told me that she cannot do a surgery again because that would damage her lungs. She takes medication to remove the water, but it does not help 100%.

She does not have any pain, why? She is a lucky cancer victim. I heard that some cancer patients suffer bad pain and some need Morphine everyday. My granny seems to be fresh and healthy when I see her. It seems that she lives forever and never dies. But sometimes she suddenly has breathing and speaking problems. She is a hospice patient but does not look like a person who is going to die. Could she suddenly die because of her lug problems, although she looks good? I want to look online about this lung illness. Does anybody know the name of this illness? Does anybody have friends or family members with this illness?

I have been suffocating lately because I began a lot of eating green tea recently, which is the only thing that could be causing this. I heard you could get the health benefits that way. I laid down to sleep earlier and kept waking up because I was not breathing. I once had this problem years ago after taking guggle and recall two things that used to help me peppermint tea and this product, something like oxygen o2?
If I recall correctly what I am experiencing is the inability to use the oxygen which I am breathing. Can anyone help? I know things like vinegar make it worse. It is some type of upkeep or inkeep problem, any help would be nice.

MAM asked:


I have bought a home oxygen container recently, and I would to if it’s okay to use it everyday or not. Will it effect my health if I use it a lot. I mean is it recommended to use or not. Will I be (my body) addicted to it???
