I've been monitoring my blood oxygen saturation since before I left Washington, DC. In the weeks prior to my departure it was a steady 98% oxygen saturation. The literature that came with my little clinicalguard.com fingertip pulse oximeter said that normal randes are between 95-100% although measurements above 90% are also normal. My blood oxygen percent saturation took a dip when I arrived at pole and has since returned to somewhat normal ranges. I'm going to continue to monitor this progress and see if it improves more.
I still have some questions, however and will meet with the medical staff later today to ask them my questions. Do you have any you'd like me to ask? Please post them in the Ask The Team section if you do. Thanks!
