I'd get laughed out of his office. Even the docs who don't care about O2 issues have their aides carrying finger clips to get your SPO2 as part of the visit record. They don't make treatment decisions based on it, just use it as an idea where things are and if your breathing, etc. needs attention. Hmm, that's what we're looking for. Like what happens to your O2 level if you take a walk or run. Does it drop a little, or plummet like a rock? Imagine I'm in an ER, sick, and they want to see how bad things are, so they take me off my supplemental O2 and have me take a walk with the finger clip. They see how it changes and figure whether they should send me home or admit me. Now let's go back a couple hours, I'm at home, not feeling well, but have, say, once or twice per minute O2 readings on my Fitbit. Say I'm reading somewhat low, and when I walk around the house for a couple minutes it goes a lot lower. Good time to call my doc, or maybe 911. Now at home, I can usually find a finger clip, but I don't carry them while commuting - hence if the Fitbit can tell me I may have a serious problem, I can make an intelligent decision.
Understand - I don't need perfect accuracy, just decent. Might be nice to be able to calibrate it against a decent finger clip. And the ability to graph 24 x 7 could give my lung doc a lot of good info.

Sorry you feel that way, I have several friends that are nurses and others that have shown these graph to their doctor. They all seem to understand exactly what the graph is yelling them.
You are correct in that Fitbit isn't trying to replace the sensor on the finger tip.

It is the Oxygen level in the blood, not the lungs. The lungs will have the same level as the surrounding air.
It is giving an idea about how efecent Efficient the lungs are working

That's what I was looking for. The ability to download my EVO chart to show my doctor. At least a month at a time. In the meantime, I'm damaging my heart.

Is there a way I can reset everything without losing my prior EOV stats?
Just today it messed up and now the eov for all previous nights are the same as the one for last night. And the graph lines are really thick.
I updated fitbit & the app which didn't help..

Let me try this again. I've never seen a fitbit O2 mystery chart before that looked like this one. Normally, it spends part of the time green, some not. I'm used to that. This looked like an oscilloscope tracing of a 60 cycle current. From what I can tell there was a recent update, and a lot of things seem weird since, but this stands out more than most. Most of the time my breathing would have been fairly normal, though if I'm in bed long enough I can get congested, leading to a bit less air intake. That's not what I saw on the chart. My guess is that Fitbit introduced some sort of new bug to the O2 mystery chart. I spent a good part of my career developing software, and even more of it testing software. This smacks of a bug.
Not that we actually know what the chart really means. For instance, a large variance could mean that your oxygenation is amazingly better than normal. Or a lot worse. I've never seen a clear connection between the overall night average (under the TODAY app on the watch) and the chart. In fact, sometimes I'll show 8 hours of sleep, lots of that deep and / or REM, and the O2 reading on the watch says - wear your watch to bed. Sometimes the phone app will say I got no sleep (even though I did) but the watch has an O2 reading.
