Spo2 is 90%
In August 2020, I bought pulse oximeter along with blood pressure monitor for our family use.
When 4 of our family members checked the spo2% is showing above 95% except my mother.
Her spo2% showing 90%, 89%, 91% and 92%.
Since then I am checking her every week and it's showing the same. Now this is Oct.
I would like to know, What disease she is suffering from?
