I know Laurie will be able to help on this one and thanks to anyone who can.
Steve is concerned that he is rebreathing his CO2 on the Trilogy because there is no exhalation valve or rebreather valve, just a mask with a six foot hose. He believes he is rebreathing his exhaled breath. He does not want to use his trilogy because of this.
He also suffers with sinus issues when laying down.
His breathing was checked at the study today and his breathing level has dropped to 60% which is almost a 20% drop in two months. He gets anxious and angry when I try to help and is determined that not having a valve is dangerous and that CO2 is dangerous.
The company who provides the Trilogy is useless and our contact knows nothing about ALS so he does not trust her.
