A Little Discouraged Tonight

Posted by Ryman @ryman, Mar 13, 2017

hello, I have a number of issues. I won't go into all the details. The latest is that I have low oxygen level. The doctor ordered nighttime oxygen Wed but the staff hadn't sent the order in till today. The last couple of months I have been sick in a different kind of way. I really can't describe it. And it seems to take so long to learn anything and get things done. I guess I am just impatient because I feel so bad and can't drive or do much of anything. Sorry just needed to whine a bit.

Have you use the oxygen at night before or Will this be your first time trying it?

I certainly will encourage you based on my previous experiences and my professional line of work to give the doctors office a friendly reminder tomorrow morning first thing. And follow up tomorrow afternoon if necessary. Trust me you will not be bothering them they want what's best for you and sometimes orders get lost in the shuffle of paper work.

@ryman Did you get all hooked up with your oxygen ? Are you using a concentrator? I am on oxygen 24/7 so LONG tubing is my best friend !!!: 🙂 My husband is just glad it reaches to the washing machine hahaha He is great and does most of the laundry anyway, just never my clothes. But seriously it can be an adjustment. I have been thinking of you and hoping the hook up went well and you are waking up with higher levels. Good Luck !

@allisonsnow I love the phrase, "so LONG tubing is my best friend" it reflects that you have come to accept and appreciate where you are right now and you are thankful for the help that you get. Best wishes for a good day today. Teresa
