If you are worried best would be to do an abg for pao2 which is most accurate.
And do cbc for hb
spo2 is not accurate representation of oxygen levels
if you are suffering from copd then 88-92 is ok level
do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment or if you still have some doubts you want to clear.

My father 87 year old have been hospitalized in new jersey usa for 43 days now with interstitial lung disease. Principal problem: pneumonia of left lower lobe due to infectious organism active problems: acute calculus cholecystitis interstitial lung disease (hcc) left bundle branch block acute on chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia (hcc) paroxysmal a-fib (hcc) currently on 4 l oxygen nasal cannula patient currently in steroid prednisone 30 mg and mepron and cefepime iv antibiotics. Recent x-ray shows worsening of lung condition all lobe impacted. Following this website I am giving him beryllium and silicea alongside the hospital’s alopathic treatment. I only go to hospital once in the evening, giving him 5 pallets of beryllium 30c and 3 pallets of silicea 30c one hour apart in the evening. I am not sure if I am giving him right amount. Requesting direction on the appropriate doses (also if any other meds and doses are suggested) for the acute stage of ild, again I am only able to go to the hospital once in the evening so only can give homeopathy medicine once a day.

Hello
lax lower esophageal sphincter means that the lower end of esophagus which connects to the stomach is not as tight as expected. It would explain any symptoms of indigestion ,belching, reflux of food into the mouth, heart burn that he might be having. Weight reduction, avoiding lying down immediately after food are known to help. Hope this helps.
Book an appointment if symptoms persists. Thank you!
