Is Low Blood Oxygen Level Dangerous?

ALL of the cells that make up your body need oxygen or they will DIE!

Hey, no joke!

Killing off cells sure won’t build health.

If your oxygen level falls low enough, it can stimulate your vagus nerve and cause your heart to stop.

Got that?

If you are ignoring your low oxygen level, you are risking DEATH!

Ask your family to tell you if your lips are blue.  While you’re asking, find out if they think you have short term memory loss.

How was your last eye exam?  Were your eyes worse?

Do you know what you need to about YOUR blood oxygen level?

1. When blood oxygen levels fall below 92% saturation, the pressure of the oxygen within your blood is too low to penetrate the walls of the red blood cells.

• It wont do you any good to argue with science and gas laws.

2. Your insurance company will not pay for oxygen unless your levels fall to 88% oxygen saturation.

• This has nothing to do with what is best for you, it is just the point at which your insurance is willing to pay for your home oxygen use.

3. Every time your blood oxygen level falls below 92% saturation the cells of your body are oxygen starved. If your level falls low enough it could stimulate your vagus nerve and KILL you.

4. Low oxygen levels may be present only at certain times.

There are various situations that may cause low oxygen level:

• when retaining excessive fluid
• when airways are tight and wheezy
• with respiratory illness, or advancing lung disease
• sleep apnea
• about 3:00am when you wake gasping for air
• with activity when the heart muscle has become weak
• while bending over or kneeling down
• sudden onset of Heart Failure

5. Recurring low blood oxygen levels are harmful and should be prevented with supplemental oxygen if
possible.

• The problem is that your doctor may not witness your oxygen levels at 88%, and if he/she doesnt see it he/she won’t order it.
• Another big challenge is that portable oxygen use is inconvenient and you may avoid using it.
• Untreated low oxygen levels rob your eye sight, short term memory, and your strenghth.

6. Many doctors give misinformation about oxygen because they don’t understand the importance of meeting oxygen need themselves.

Your doctor may tell you dangerous misinformation you should NEVER believe:

• Using oxygen will make your lungs weak is NOT a true fact
• Using oxygen too much will make you need it more is NOT a true fact!
• You only need oxygen when you feel like you need it is NOT a true fact!
• If your oxygen level is low you will get used to it is NOT a true fact
• You don’t need oxygen unless your saturation is lower than 88% is NOT a true fact! You need oxygen if your levels fall below 92%!

7. Even if your blood oxygen saturation is NOT low you CAN benefit from using supplemental oxygen with activity!

• Whether your blood oxygen level is dangerously low, or in the normal range, getting your heart rate up while using supplemental oxygen will help you to utilize oxygen better, and that WILL make you feel better!

It has been a while since I last posted on this subject, but it is such an important issue for anyone effected by it.

Heart Failure is inevitable if you are living with low oxygen level.  You may not even be aware of it, but the consequences of ignoring it are harsh.

Be good to yourself.

Many blessings,
