Definitely not! I'm 61/2 years post IL op and mine are 91-93 - and I have mild COPD. Worry and anxiety will affect your breathing so won't help at all. Relax and enjoy your Christmas

Don't think so

I'm 4 years out and SAts never over 95/96 and get breathless easily especially after eating, all down to collapsing the lung and new plumbing !!

No health care workers seem to express concern unless it drops below 90.
