It is quite normal. Variation will depends on the position of the body,battery power of oxy meter.whenever if it goes down below 94,only,it is important. It also depends upon any co morbid ities,you have.if you are symptoms free,do not worry. Do not measure spo2, un necessarily. However Pl consult with Pulmonologist online with all the reports and treatment taken.
