Since my views on HBO seem to have attracted interest, it seems best to me to bump this thread in order to allow those who want to comment about them to read what I actually wrote.

I've said several times that my goal is to get people interested in learning about ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). I'm not so arrogant as to believe that anyone will rush right out and sign up for HBO because I tell them to, but I do hope that by discussing a mechanism of action for HBO, someone will take the time and effort necessary to learn whether IRI might make sense.

In RSD, it really does boil down to which view makes more sense: Those who believe this is the result of a nerve injury and that the success rate of ketamine therapy seems attractive will choose it. Those who take the time to learn for themselves whether IRI is a better explanation for our signs and symptoms will look to HBO.

The best way to make an informed decision is to gather information. I can't provide enough information about IRI to convince anyone; I can only hope to give people a reason to learn about it for themselves...Vic
