HI
yes I saw the doctor Tuesday. I ask him if I donate blood will it help lower my Hemoglobin. it will help a little but not fix my problem.
Donating blood would not be a cure of course but it would lower your RBCs temporarily and I find it makes me feel better. If you're eligible to give it helps you and someone in need of blood. You can donate every few months.
I saw the Inogen G3 is covered by Medicare. But I've read most portable concentrators are pulse activated and you can't add oxygen to them.

I'm going to donate blood soon. I agree its good to give blood. I need a continuous flow concentrator. The one I picked is a little overkill for me but if I have to increase my flow, I have the capacity to do so. The inogen is very popular. its very portable and easy to carry around. I think it weighs about 10 pounds. my concentrator is heavy. for what I need it for. it will do the job nicely.
