I’m seeing a lot of walk in medical oxygen clinics here , seems to be the way now in Dubai, 15-30 mins and all done.

I use sumatriptan still, it is just as fast, but I’d prefer not to use strong painkillers so will be looking into Oxygen and trying it

Anyone tried oxygen ? Any issues getting it in the uk ?

I know there are oxygen bars now at festivals and liquid oxygen on Virgin flights but this isn’t medical grade for headaches is it ? More of a general headache / hangover cure

I think I will just buy a tank & mask , the breathing pattern looks simple rather than pay £50-£100 per visit to a clinic

As a scuba diver I carry a bottle of oxygen in case of accidents

Should one of my mates get decompression sickness (Bends) 100% oxygen does the trick
