perhaps. we'll have to see. i am awaiting a response from my doctor.
as far as this email I got, my DH read through it too and said its a little confusing cause she kind of says 2 different things. first, she says its normal. then, later she says i could "try" O2. if its normal and there is no concern, why mention O2? do you think she just thinks i have it laying around my house and since i already have it, i should hook up and try it with exercise? or, do you think she meant unless i get symptomatic it should'n't matter? i'm kind of confused the more i read it. oh well. hopefully she'll clarify. seems if i DID start using O2 without a stress test or exercise study i wouldn't NEED an exercise study, eh? unless i didn't find releif with O2. same with her mentioning not becoming alarmed until i'm symptomatic. if i START O2, i shouldn't even BE symptomatic, so how would that even make sense? LOL
who knows? i'll keep ya'll posted.

Ok, in all fairness I said I'd post DH's results with my pulse ox WHILE running.
He starts at 99 sats and drops to 96 after about 3 miles at a very slow jog. He tells me he breathes through his nose the entire time and is NOT running for speed, but for distance, so he is certainly not working out as hard as I do (I breathe from my mouth almost the whole time and really workout hard). So, maybe next time he does a FAST run, I will also have him track it.
Oh, and his HR reaches 160.
So, there ya go.

Ok, so hypothetically, if they let me get O2 while running, how big is it and will it fit in the little treadmill tray or will I have to wear it or what?? Now comes the logistical questions once I"ve made the decision to try it. I will be working out at Gold's Gym on a life fitness machine and not in a hospital setting and do not want a bulky O2 tank next to me. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
