I've been keeping track of my blood oxygen levels ever since I had COVID about six weeks ago. Lately, I've noticed that after climbing stairs, my oxygen levels sometimes drop to around 93-94 for a bit, and it takes about a minute to go back up to 96-97. I'm a bit concerned because I never really checked these numbers before having COVID. Should I be worried about this change in my oxygen levels, or is this just a normal recovery process? When I'm walking or doing the 6-minute test, my oxygen levels are fine at around 96-97, and theyre good when I'm sitting too, around 97-98. Does this sound alright to you?

View allI'm a bit confused about the Foracort 400 mdi. Once I've started taking it, do I need to keep using it continuously? I'm not really clear on how long I'm supposed to stick with this dosage. Can you help explain how I should be managing it?
Foracort 400 MDI is typically used for managing asthma or COPD symptoms. If your doctor has prescribed it, it's important to follow the prescribed frequency, which could be one or more doses per day depending on the condition. If you're unsure about the timing or dosage, I recommend consulting your doctor to clarify the specific schedule based on your symptoms.
