Sorry to hear the infusion wasn't long lasting, it did not provide a last effect for me either.I have some reservations about ketamine, I know it has been successful for some people but have felt it is too risky to try. HBOT is definitely a safe treatment and painless treatment as long as you follow simple rules such as no nail polish, makeup, hair spray etc. I have had around 60 "dives"HBOT treatments and did have lasting reduced pain and swelling. It didn't completely take it away but it did help some and the after each treatment I was so full of energy. I like to think of the treatments as a battery recharger. Let me know if you have any other questions. Good luck!

What should I try next? I am a bit afraid to try ketamine. Should I try HBOT?
This is truly a horrible condition that no human should have to endure.
