Today was a rough one. I attempted to walk my driveway but even WITH my oxygen on it was dropping into the low 80s – it hit76% at one point. I think it’s coming from my medicine I use to keep my migraines at bay, Propranolol. It’s a beta-blocker so it doesn’t let my heart rate to accelerate enough to keep up with my body’s demand. They had stopped it in the hospital, but I had asked the hospital dr if I could at least do every other day because I HATE migraines and this has worked so well for me. But I like oxygen more, so I think I’m going to stop one my own for a few days and see if that helps (disclaimer-I do not condone individuals stopping medications without discussing with their physician).
