Oxygen Sats

I wondered what people's oxygen sats were before they were put on regular oxygen please....... I've recently been in DRI with pneumonia and was told my Bronchiectasis has got worse and they don't know the full extent of the damage from the pneumonia until it has cleared. They think I may have to have oxygen throughout the day.

For me it was a drop of over 4% on my sats between at rest and mild exercise.

Good luck
