Hi Sydney,
You describe multiple diagnoses and signs and symptoms not usually associated with RSD, so on top of my fervent wish that it would just go away and leave you alone, I have some major concerns about your trying HBOT right now.
I consider myself the resident expert on HBO and RSD, and have worked very hard at understanding how HBO and the natural healing process combine to relieve symptoms of this disease. I believe I have come up with a protocol that would optimize the benefits of HBO, so if you decide to take your doc up on his offer I urge you to have him phone me (just PM me and I'll give you my phone number).
I have known RSD people who have gotten substantial relief from HBO and known people who came out much worse, and believe I understand why both things happen.
I believe you need to get a much better understanding about what is going on besides the RSD; especially the reason why you passed out twice. Falling is one thing; passing out is entirely different and needs to be investigated.
I am very concerned that you might try HBO without having your doc talk with me (I am, after all, a social worker, not a doctor), so I'll close with this:
DO NOT ACCEPT 100% OXYGEN AT ABOVE 1.5 ATMOSPHERES. I AM SURE THAT YOU WOULD COME OUT IN MORE PAIN AND WITH MORE PROBLEMS THAN YOU HAVE NOW.
I hope you will phone me so we can talk about this in more detail...I really do know what I'm talking about...Vic
