Thank you
Just read the above post on oxygen quality and I would like to say thank you for posting it.
A couple of days ago, I posted a story on this site about how I flew to Vancouver (Zoom) from London.
As a well controlled asthmatic on one inhaler, I became very short of breath and dizzy.
It took 3 weeks to recover from both flights.
My husband was ill as were a couple of others on the flight.
The response I was met with was 'You are on the wrong site, see a chest physician. It had nothing to do with your flight'
Which I found quite patronising.
I have since spoken to a friend that flew with her friend to Australia.
She became short of breath on the flight and fainted. Her friend is a pilot, who said it was to do with the oxygen levels on the plane.
So to the first person that gave me that reply, you are patronising me and I dont like it.
There is proof that poor air recycling systems will affect oxygen saturations on planes, if you would like some scientific papers about what can happen, then let me know and I will email them to you.
I have more respect for people keeping an open mind than categorically denying it happens.
To the person that wrote the above post, thank you. Very informative.
