Eva, some days mine are low, and some days they are not. It depends on how bad the SOB is however mine are never lower than 94 except at night when they drop because of sleep apnea. If you are feeling unwell, see the doctor to make sure it is not something else affecting your oxygen saturation. Hugs

Hi Eva,
Not sure on this as I have SOB and I have AFIB. The only medication I am on now for my heart is Eliquis (blood thinner). Have been told by Pulmonologist it isn't my lungs.
