There are many possibilities for your symptoms but more information would be needed. It would be helpful to know what your blood pressure is during these episodes. How long do they last? What makes it better? What are you doing when it happens?Your pulse ox is still in the normal range even though it drops a little-it is still ok. See your doctor for evaluation, including examining you. Good luck!
