Oxygen sats

2 replies

Hi all

I've been breathless this week, particularly when walking.

Because of that I thought I'd check my sats and my oxygen seems to drop when I've 'exercised'. At rest I'm at 97/99, once walked etc I'm at 93/95. As soon as I'm resting it's back up.

A concern or likely my monitor?

(I should add I have asthma and have just started biologics, but my peak flow is ok so I don't think it's asthma, if it is anything)

I would definitely have it checked, sats can be a slippery slope. Below 95 is usually considered a cause for concern so would absolutely get checked.

Sounds totally normal to me:
