Esteemed All,

My name is Suhail, My mother is a patient of Emphysema and Interstitial lung disease. She is using oxygen concentrater. whenever i remove the oxygen supply from machine, the body oxygen drops and she start getting heavy breathing. I could read a lot about Hydrogen peroxide food grade 3% of 35 %,. Could some body elaborate it, whether i should use the solution. Help and advises are much appreciated. God bless us all.

Welcome to the forum Suhail. Sorry to hear about your mother. You don't say whether she is on supplementary oxygen 24/7 but since oxygen is given because O2 saturation in the body isn't high enough, then it will drop if she stops using it. I don't know the answer to your question about Hydrogen peroxide but it has been discussed here before. If you type it into the search box at the top right hand side, posts will come up which discuss it. Take care and best wishes to your mother.

Hello Suhail_Kashmir and welcome to the forum. Reading your posts prompts me to ask why you would be removing oxygen from your mother if this is something she needs? If it has been prescribed for her it is because it is necessary.

There has been a lot of discussion about the use of hydrogen peroxide which you can access by using the search box (top right). However I would again counsel that you allow yourself to be guided by your mother's doctors.

Thanks very much dear for your revert. However, we don't remove the supply of oxygen. i live in a country where we have shortage of power supply unfortunately. we have also kept extra sources for power supply. But sometime, we are left with no option. Doctors have suggested us the same. I was just trying to understand if i use H202, how far its gonna be useful. the reviews left by many people about usage of H202 seem to be quite motivating.

In this country we are provided with small cylinders of oxygen for when we are mobile and with large cylinders for emergency use such as a power outage. Please ask your supplier if they can also provide these. Good luck.
