Ask your doctor, not the morons on this site! What is wrong with so many people asking health questions on this thing?! I work for a doctor, and believe me, I get calls much less serious than this. Wake Up!!!!

I can't answer this from experience, but from practical understanding I can explain some of the causes and theoritical solutions.
I would suppose you know that all air and air gases such as oxygen contain a mixture of water wapor. How much water vapor can mix in is dependent on the temperature. Hot gases can hold more vapro than cold gases. That explains why we don;t generally have hot, foggy days...fog is vapor that condenses into water because when the air cools, it can;t hold more water vapor.
A similar thing is happening to your oxygen, I suspect. Vapor mixed in is subject to cooling and it condenses. It is possible that vapor in your breath is condensing also.
What this means is that if you keep the room warmer, the vapor is less likely to cool and condense. However, th air holds more humidity that way, so keep a dehumidifier also.
The real experts in this subject have practical solutions also. See the link below. They mention a device called a water trap; see your oxygen supplier.

well either your o2 is turned way up (>7) or the water bottle (humidifier) is too full take some of the water out and only fill to below the fill line marked on humidifier.Could also mean you need to change the humidifier cap and bottle the old one may be clogged.

It's condensation, which you probably figured out on your own. I'm not sure how to stop it, though. If yo uahve a home health nurse or someone who checks on you, you might ask them. It's not harmful, particularly, unless it's a lot of condensation.

My grandfather was. He put an in line water trap on it. If you have a Med. Chest store near by, they sell them there. Good Luck!!

Dear God in heaven---get out of the pool immediately. You should not be swimming. And further advice....don't take your electric tooth brush or your hair dryer in the pool either.
