Buying nasal cannula

I find these go stiff after a while and fall off my ears. I thought it was a bit much to get the oxygen guy to bring some, so i decided to buy a couple. Amazon want £7 each plus some for £1 plus £6 postage. So i bought a couple from a uk firm on ebay, they were £3 or so. Hope they will be ok, amazon seemed so expensive

Cheaper and guaranteed at.

Of course it’s no inconvenience for your supplier to deliver.

For those of us In the US on Medicare, your oxygen provider must continually supply you with replacement canulas and hose as needed, Regards, judg69

Well yes they would pop some round if i asked. I forgot to ask for some when my bottles were recently renewed. I thought they would be cheap and was surprised how much amazon wanted

Yes your supplier will bring you some, my husband has a great big pile of them 4ft and 7ft.....it's no problem for them, part of the service.....I must admit the suppliers are brilliant nothing seems a problem to them.

I definitely wouldn’t buy them when you can get them for free from oxygen provider. I don’t find they go hard but I do find they twist and drive me crazy, I feel like I’m being strangled! I don’t like them right to my chin btw. Good luck. Joy.
