Hi one of my doctors told me to keep my O2 at my stable baseline which is 2L 24/7. Unfortunately when I have worse days I'll increase to 2.5 or 3.0. I use a bipap at night with O2. My lungs like the bipap but it's a pain to keep clean.

@masscopd I keep a couple of sets of hoses and masks so that I can clean without waiting to use. I got a spare water receptacle too. It’s cheaper on Amazon than through my insurance and I deduct medical thanks to all of this. If you have a health savings that would be a good use. My mom hated her BiPAP but I love mine. I just have to over prepare. My brother in law taught me to keep back up energy sources in case of power loss. I take it with me on trips even just over night. One thing that I just realized recently was that I was under utilizing my rescue inhaler. You really have to be forward thinking with that because once capacity decreases it’s tough to inhale the medicine.
