Can you please tell me, did the HBOT help? What kind of side affects did you have? Where did you have it done?

Sorry for so many questions.
Thank you,

Hi Melody,

I had a problem with Oxygen toxicity with my first dive and had a seizure but I am prone to seizures so it is no surprise.
Yes it did help but as I said my treatment started a long way into my illness and I believe that the earlier the better for this treatment as with most.
The only other effect was general tiredness and boredom caused by sitting still for 2 hours.

Some people have sore ears if they don't learn how to equalise just as you do in an areoplane.
The staff will help you with this.
I have shared a chamber with many people who have RSD/CRPS and nobody reported any negative effects at all, infact most were very happy with the results.
I had mine done at the Hyperbaric Chamber of the Trauma centre of a major public hospital.
Wishing you luck
Tayla
