BTW about O2

I talked to this man today that knows allot about how the body works and about O2 levels etc. He told me that after a tough workout our body needs about two days to get down to normal levels again, wich means two days with increased O2 need. That confirmes the difficulties i have with my O2 use, why i need so much more and why it is more or less useless compared to what others experience. I use a 3 l tank in about 8 min and can go trough a 20 l tank with a high flow, OnDemand, wich is a system that allows you to breath in what your lungs capacity is, without any effect. Also it confirms what i said earlier, if i go one day without any workouts it will be ok but pressure will start to build up. The sec day i will start to get more trouble and the third day is i feel like shit. It tells us how important it is to do workout. I experiencing that workouts do more overall good than huffing and huffing O2. Of course, CrossFit does not suit everyone, but to be active and do some kind of exercise will benefit more than you would believe. It is hard to do that when your trapped in the ugly grip of CH, but everything that make life better or what i would say. Also a good mood lifter ;)

I`m trying to find out how to make the O2 use more efficient to cases like myself, where O2 does not work so very good. It is a puzzle and every Doc or specialist i ask do not have any answers to give me. Besides this guy though, wich i met in the gym!! Doctors really scear me, over the years it came clearer and clearer to me that they are only humans and do not hold so many answers we think they do and would like them to have. They do trial and error,  but with traditional medicines i do not want to touch anymore. But this is the options they got. I`m better off with trying and failing other options. But i would like them to be a bit more open at least to alternatives.

Well well, night night :)
