I'm really concerned about my dad. He's dealing with ILD and I've noticed lately that he keeps mentioning a constant feeling of nausea. He doesn't want to eat and feels like throwing up just by looking at food. Could this be because of the fibrodone tablets he's taking, like six a day? Would love some insights on this.

Question

I'm feeling a bit anxious about my oxygen levels. After having COVID, I've noticed they fluctuate quite a bit.

Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal for oxygen levels to act like this after recovering from COVID?
