I seem to be terribly short of breath when I use the pulse dose on my portable oxygen tank. If I put it on continuous flow, I don't have this problem. Has anyone else had this experience? Any comments or advice?

@A MyCOPDTeam Member good words! If I was depressed you would lift me up! I do get depressed some time, how can we not be! But you have to take a deep breath and think how lucky we are! And when we… read more
