But is it regular - a smooth sinus wave on the oximeter?

It is regular, but mine doesn't have a wave on the oxometer, but the numbers stay the same if I leave it on?

That's a shame - mine changes display every time I pred the on/off when it is on. I find it quite useful.

I get something similar, including the left side being worse. It calms after a while.
