Question

My mom's dealing with some serious breathing issues. She was hospitalized with a chest infection and her lungs are all bloated. They found pseudomonas in her blood culture and she was on Pepar IV three times a day for 10 days, plus steroids, Budamate, and Duolin nebulizers. Even after all that, she's still having trouble breathing and the infections getting worse. After she was discharged, they put her on Linezolid 600 for five days, but it didn't help. Now they've suggested we keep an oxygen cylinder at home because of her breathing problems. Is there anything we can do to keep her oxygen level above 90 without the cylinder at home? Shes also dealing with CKD, thyroid issues, diabetes, and vasculitis. She's currently on a bunch of meds like Pulmoclear, Montair Fx, MMF, Wyslone, Amlip, Aztor, Human Actrapid, Lantus, Erythropoietin, Budamate inhaler, and Dytor. Any guidance would be really appreciated.
