if you have an infection with mucus then codeine is going to suppress you coughing and clearing the mucus. Good luck today

Thanks I have to take the coedine for the pain not that it does much it is a total nightmare x

I'm so sorry you're having such an anxious time. Make sure your hands are warm when you use your oximeter. You won't get anywhere near an accurate reading if they're cold.

Good luck tomorrow. Sue x 💐

I went for my 6 month PR follow up yesterday and they use a earlobe oximeter. I also found out that arthritis in the fingers can give a false reading with a finger oximeter. So I am thinking of getting a earlobe one. With having arthritis in my fingers.
