Thank you Sirena, Bram, and SloRain for your inquiries. I had some really good weeks after my HBOT dives. I wish I could leave it at that except it is complicated. I went in to my Neuro for a 3 month visit. We decided to proceed with the Botox injections like I have been getting due to severe spasticity. It was about 24 injections into the tendons. Darrell and I attribute my latest flare to these injections. My pain levels run typically at about a 5-6 with intermittent spikes, which is still an overall improvement from before I went diving. The redness and burning are back with a vengeance. The cramping continues all over my body including in my neck chin throat and tongue. I plan to get some follow up dives in February or March. Then I'll stay away from the needles. Despite this latest flare, I do believe the HBOT was an affective treatment for me for CRPS Type II.
