No, you are definitely getting less oxygen, because less air enters
the lungs to begin with. You are not breathing as deeply if your
nasal or bronchial tubes are clogged or irritated, and the basic medical
instrument used to measure breathing efficiency measures volume.

I presume that this takes the 'all matter is energy' construction one
