[quote][i]Originally posted by Aaron[/i] Yeah you’re right. To have come out the other side of my treatment with only scars is very rare. My wife and parents were told by the ECMO surgeon that I had a 2/3 chance of survival if she (my wife) signed the consent form for him to operate on me. If I wasn’t put on ECMO at that point I would have died within 12 hours of multi organ failure (the very same thing killing the poor Covid 19 people) Remember the Top Gear episode when the gang took 4x4s across Bolivia and The Andes? They put oximeter devices on the end of their fingers to measure the oxygen levels in their blood. The average is between 95 and 100. The TG guys readings were in the mid/high 80s when at the top of the mountains. Mine was in the 60s when the GP called me an ambulance. He actually thought the first oximeter he tried on me was malfunctioning, so he got another. Same reading on the 2nd one of course. [Edited on 13-04-2020 by Aaron] [/quote]
