As long as I hit the o2 before attack hits it's peak the o2 always aborts my attacks and I've been using o2 for about 5 years know. But I also use energy drinks of a night time before i hit the o2 and black coffee during the day before I hit the o2

My Lpm is only 15 and it works fine for my so don't panic if you can't find one at 25lpm buddy

I asked for ketamine from my PCP. He said it was experimental and he couldn't do it. However, I know my new neurologist will prescribe it (first visit in January). Can't wait to work with someone who is open to all the options.

Maybe @Freud can chime in here as he seems to know quite a bit about it.

This isn't clear to me. The bag (the smaller one that you had before) should fill up fairly quickly when you turn on the O2. Then when you inhale, the bag should empty, or at least mostly empty. Then it should fill up again when you stop inhaling and are exhaling. The flow rate determines how fast the bag fills -- the higher the lpm, the faster the bag fills. That is the only relevant aspect of flow rate -- it doesn't affect how much O2 you take in when you inhale. If the bag does not fill fast enough that it is ready for your next inhalation, you need a higher flow rate. It is called a "reservoir bag," because it holds the O2 until you inhale it. Having a larger bag on there means that you have extra O2 for each inhale, which is fine, but you want to start inhaling as soon as there's enough O2 for you to take a full, deep breath, and not wait for a very large bag to fill. I'm just not really comprehending what you mean by "even at 10 lpm I get enough oxygen for 10 to 15 breaths." O2 virtually always works. For some people, it is less effective when the pressure in the tank is low (when there is less O2 in the tank). There might be times when it doesn't work, or takes longer to work, but the value of using O2 doesn't really decay over time. Yes, you will use less O2 when you find the breathing strategy that works best for you -- and there is also some evidence that it is just less effective in the first few uses than it becomes after that.

I've looked on Amazon India and their are plenty of regulators you can buy on the site buddy . You still haven't given me your ADDRESS for triptan injections , if you still want them?

It appears to be the same....but I admit I can't say for 100% certain. From the India Amazon pages: https://www.amazon.in/Flameco-Oxygen-Regulator-Single-Gauge/dp/B07NQHXPBV/ref=dp_fod_1?pd_rd_i=B07NQHXPBV&psc=1 There are more listed as being available in your country on Amazon India. Take a look there.....

Juss you really are a deep thinker and I really love that I'm learning so much from you buddy . But please don't switch yourself off from the modern world as you have to live within it, as Bosco has said time moves forward we have no control over that buddy and I'm afraid we as human beings have to move forward with it

This looks to me like a 540-type connection. I don't know whether it's the same classification system for regulators in India. Maybe @Racer1_NC or @xxx can confirm this. I see that www.indiamart.com has a lot of regulators. That's a business-to-business site (not business to consumer), so you might not be able to buy there, but there is contact information for all the suppliers. (There might be a better site where you could buy directly; this is just what I saw with a quick look.) As the oxygen section says, you can use either a medical oxygen regulator or a welding regulator with that type of connection. Here's a medical O2 one that goes up to 25 lpm from Amazon in the US: https://www.amazon.com/Regulator-CGA-540-Responsive-Respiratory-120-1205/dp/B07ZS9JK7P/ref=sr_1_21?crid=292UW7S35X6N3&keywords=oxygen+regulator+540+cga&qid=1638375197&sprefix=oxygen+regulator+540%2Caps%2C216&sr=8-21 You can use almost any of the welding regs shown at Amazon -- search under oxygen regulator 540. You'd want to be sure to get one that has a barbed fitting to attach your mask tubing to, such as what you can see on the left side of this one: https://www.amazon.com/IMAGE-Welding-Welder-Regulator-Cutting/dp/B00JP9WIF2/ref=sr_1_10?crid=292UW7S35X6N3&keywords=oxygen+regulator+540+cga&qid=1638375197&sprefix=oxygen+regulator+540%2Caps%2C216&sr=8-10 I wouldn't rely on anything I say here until it's confirmed by Racer, xxx (Batch), or another of the true experts here.

I seriously need to repeat this over and over to myself until it sinks in and sticks - I can see myself going for this without hesitation in the event of an O2 fail or unavailability.
