Hi Diana,

I called a HBOT center just north of San Fran. Ca. and talked to them this week. It sounds like a great center with experienced Drs. etc. I'm very serious about going for it. My Dr. I've been seeing for 4 years now is a neurologist, pscychiatrist and pharmacologist, with knowledge of RSD. Formerly from New York, schooled at Cornell, a wonderful Dr. and man. I see him once a month. He has helped me greatly. Don't remember if I have written my depression I had for so long is gone now. I'm just on 60 mg. of Cymbalta. Was on 3200 of Neurotin and about a year ago changed to Lyrica. Am down to 100 mg. I have full body RSD 12 years following surgery.

Monday, during my visit I brought up HBOT and told him about you and my research. He was surprised. I would like to PM you some information he told me that isn't public yet.

My next door neighbor is a Dr. and retired a couple years ago. He is part-time teaching at a medical school. I asked him if he had brought up RSD in his discussions. He said no, but why didn't I come to the school and speak. So I told him I would, because education for medical students was an area that needed more attention to say the least. In his 30 years of family practice, he said he had only 3 RSD patients. Anyway, that is what's new here.

I'm so happy for you have a HBO unit at your home. How great is that. How did you go about finding one to buy.?

Would you tell me how to figure out how to PM you? Thanks, Take care, Loretta
