or trot on down to the nearest Harbor Freight Tools store and buy one of their $35 Welder's O2 regulators and lease the largest Welder's O2 cylinder you can handle... Just don't tell them what you're doing with it...

In the mean time data from here at CH.com suggests you keep pumping him with 10,000 to 20,000 IU/day of vitamin D3 and all the cofactors.

Take care and please keep us posted.

Hey Linda,

From the data we collected on the use of an oxygen demand valve and regulators capable of 0-60 liters/minute, your husband needs an oxygen flow rate that supports hyperventilation at 25 to 45 liters/minute to achieve reliable and rapid aborts.

You've two choices... A $195 0-60 liter/minute InGage™ regulator from Flotec...

I love my flotec...146.00. Best and quickest is the welding rig. It can take sometime for flotec to build and ship. They are built to order and worth it. You can order whatever connector and high flow delivery up to 60 lpm. Ebay has cheaper ones for most size tanks. Careful you buy the type of connector for your tank size. Welding regulators are standard with a cga-540 connector which fits larger medical, M and J, 02 tanks, and do not fit medical E tanks. You can get almost any size industrial 02 tank that fits the welding regulator. Cheesy
