I went two weeks ago for ankle surgery (outpatient) and they had me remove my mask when they put the O2 meter on my finger. I dropped too low to go for surgery. Once off the saturation level returned to normal. When in recovery, they didn’t have me put a mask on until I was ready to go home.

It will be interesting when I go for PT.

I just finished PT twice a week for 8 weeks — wearing a mask. It is a PROBLEM breathing while exerting yourself.

People and stations were spaced a good distance from each other, so I’d pull down the mask to expose my nose and nobody cared. Also, whenever possible I’d do my exercises facing a wall or with my back to other people.
