I just wanted to warn you people about fake video on the use of oxymeter.
The video was deleted and hence I could not put it here.
What is shown in that video is:
1. A finger was put and it showed the correct reading of oxygen level and the pulse/heart rate.
2. Then a biscuit is put, and the meter shows oxygen level and pulse rate.
3. A biscuit of another shape is put, and it shows both the readings.
Then the speaker comments that even biscuits have oxygen levels and hearts, so the meter is fake and the people are making big issue on either oxygen levels or the importance of the meter.
***
1. First, that particular oxymeter might be faulty. Get another good one after testing it in the shop only.
2. The oxygen is around the biscuits, and the signal might go through the biscuits, and may show some readings.
However, such false things should be ignored.
3. The meter is calibrated and is meant for reading oxylevels of humans. If your oxylevels are low due to infection, and if these levels improve as a result of proning/deep breathing, as measured by the same meter, then your job is done.
4. In my oxymeter, I put a pen, and the device gave an error; so you check the device at the buying point and then only get it.
5. Also, for example if you put your thermometer between two biscuits and it shows temperature, then you don't say that both the biscuits have fever. Thermometer is meant for measuring human body temperature, by putting its tip below the tounge, or in the armpit. Other readings have no relevance.
6. So, if you are infected and you have breathing problems, just buy and use a good oxymeter, whatever make, from whichever country, and constantly monitor oxygen levels in your body/lungs.
7. Due to recent infection to me, my normal oxy level went below 94, and when we talked to our family doctor, he told it should not go below that level.
8. So, I started doing proning (see my previous bites), three times daily in four positions, and within two days, the levels started improving, and in next few days, the oxy level in normal breathing improved to 98.
9. And since then, the oxy level in this normal breathing for me has been always 98.
10. And oxy levels in the proning positions also improved to:
98(99)/97/97/97.
11. So, please do NOT be misguided by such fake videos, and you have to use some good oxymeter to check oxylevels of your body/lungs, and take charge of your health once again, if you are affected by the virus.
