@churlgurl, I'm sorry you've been dealing with this. Seems like you need to really have that looked at. Oxygen in the 80s is not normal. I wouldn't give up with your doctors though, you might have to push them a bit and advocate for yourself. Do you have plans for any follow ups especially regarding the low O2?

I have been actively seeking care for about 6 months. Most doctors I have seen just change the subject and avoid discussing tracheobronchomalacia. Maybe this is due to not being familiar with condition. Only my primary physician has tried to help. I’ve had other medical complications during this period. Most possible causes of the sudden onset of my current breathing difficulties have been ruled out.
