this center has hyperbaric chambers and they have a good success rate. it is true that most who use it have diabetes but i was told that they also use it for peripheral neuropathy patients who have trouble healing.

im not using it because so far i have been able to heal, the wound closed up but the bone infection got worse even with antibiotics, so the toe had to go. if i don t heal i will have to use it though i have issues with claustrophobia due to past experiences in my job.

anyway the bottom line is i wouldnt hesitate to use it in your case and there are definitely sucess stories at the wound center i go to for people with peripheral neuropathy using it.
