Hello I have Hypersensitivity pneumonitis and am on oxygen 16 hrs a day at home with a concentrater I also use oxygen canisters for when I'm out and about. I have a plan for a holiday this summer to celebrate my 60th year and 25 year wedding anniversary and my youngest graduation. The plan is to tour the highlands of scotland where I'm originally from. This would entail driving...(which is fine) my question does anyone know if the NHS can loan me a portable concentrater that we can move with us as we tour around. Something I can hug in at night ( setting 2L) and I can then just get canisters delivered as and when needed. The concentrater must be continuous flow and not pulse. I'm sure when I went to pulmonary rehab there was a lady who wheeled one one a trolley. Any help / advice appreciated.

Yes if you’re staying in uk they can over you a portable one Phillips concentrated which goes up to 2lt per min continues or the sequel 5 which goes up to 3 lt mincontinuos I got the Phillips one when I went on my holidays the respiratory nurse got me mine I got from Dolby find out you’re suppler and they can help you out
My husband has a mobile concentrator from Dolby . He on 2 ltr 16 hours constant and I believe it goes to 3 ltr constant or more. This was organised by respiratory team. We found asking the Dolby engineer what was available and he was a great help . He needs higher for ambulatory use so has liquid oxygen but have been told is not a problem if touring in uk .
