Hi Harley,
I can't speak as a veteran oxygen user, I only got on to it a few weeks ago thanks to this web site, but on the second night I tried it I seemed to be having several, relatively mild attacks occuring over several hours. At the time I wasn't sure whether they were new attacks or if it was just the first one which had not gone away fully. I hate think what I might have been feeling if it had been one long attack without O2.
It might just be that increasing the flow rate will stop the beast returning for you, I seem to getting by fine on a very low level but then that might also just be down to the drugs I am taking with O2 as my trusty fall back.
One thing seems sure from all the information here, this condition has many twists and turns in store for all of us. What seems to work one time, doesn't work the next or doesn't work as well. Regular cycles become irregular ones. Long cycles become short ones, and short ones become long ones. I think I'm gonna blame it all on El Nino. I mean, eveything else is being put down to that, so why not our current "atypical" experiences with C/H. Bring on the X Files investigators.
Bye for now.
Laurence
