I have a lot other condition as well idn if that had to do with anything but in hospital with oxygen I didn't go any higher than 92 and that was from an 84 beginning.. I do notice if I'm full of fluid my stats go down but if I'm pretty clear I can go as high as 98 of course this over six months later ..

if your sats are in the low-mid 80s with the most effective treatment possible, you'll probably be offered home oxygen

I only have to wear mine at night as during the day mine stays about 97 percent! I've heard if you have COPD that between 88 and 92 is normal!😊
