Yes it's excellent!

[pergola1]

I would have thought good. Mine was 96 yesterday.

If that was the resting figure Dan it is pretty good. You can be Dan, Dan the happy man now.

Highly recommended!

Mine is only 95 at the most. I still keep the gym going!

[scrobbitty]

Mine is 97/98 usually only dropping when I have an infection, so pretty good I reckon and that's from someone with a terrible FEV 1 - so take heart

My Husbands dropped to 69 earlier and he didn't feel too good. We soon got the oxygen on him. He is ok now.

[Eve3066]

Wow I can't remember the last time mine was that high

[Offcut]

Mine is all over the place. I can peak at 97 but then drop to 93. Just come back from dropping wife off to work and I was 89?

[Lynne1955]

Very good. Mine is 97/98 normally and GP very pleased with that.

Mine is in the high 90's too. I wonder if this tells you anything about your COPD stage? as people on Oxygen for instance seem to be very low. Can someone please explain to this stupid woman (me)

[libby7827]

High sats are not necessarily indicative of the stage of COPD you are at. I am "end stage" yet my sats are always good at rest. Anything in the 90's is acceptable. Mine do drop to around mid 80's on moving around. I'm what's known as a "retainer" meaning my lungs don't expel enough carbon dioxide but this doesn't necessarily affect my sats reading.. Good post below ..... x
