Yes I did...I was actually in hospital
doing DHE and sumamderol too...
at 7-10 lpm, O2 would radically intensify my orbital pains..
I was just as surprised...and bummed....

After the 3rd try I decided it was real and
I did't care for it much anymore.
I used to smoke a lot.....maybe a connection,
I was also wondering if it was the plastic
smell/vapor of the brand-new mask they gave me
(e.g. like a phtalate ester toxicity) but no idea really.

I hear it is unheard of or rare to have a
bad response to O2 if it is CH. Like Marc G. said, and I beleive him,
outliers do not necesssalliy negate the collective wisdom
and standard experiences/expressions of CH. I also believe
though that there is something to these aerobiphobic singularities,
but, no idea really.....

Don't do anymore O2, as tempting as it is....
