Facemasks
Just a question. Is it safe to wear a facemask?. I'm told that these slow down your breathing.

just wear the mask

If you have trouble, look for a different type of mask, but for now it's important to find a way to wear a mask. Have you tried N95 rather than cloth or surgical? It fits very tightly so I expected it to be much more uncomfortable, but it's vented so it doesn't get as hot and glasses don't fog up.

My wife just had an appointment with her GP. When her pulse/pressure/pO2 was taken, her oxygen saturation was 92%, which alarmed the nurse. She told her to take off her mask and within a minute or two it went up to 98%. She said this isn't rare.
I didn't have any trouble, so it's not likely a PM thing. If you're worried about it, just buy a pulseOx meter (~$30 on Amazon).
