Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
 
There has been some research in animal and human studies for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to treat Neuropathic Pain, CRPS, Fibromyalgia, Traumatic brain Injury, Stroke etc. Just wondering if anyone has heard of anything for Peripheral Neuropathy. I have found a few studies and some anecdotal reports, video testimonials. I am considering a trail for my PN which I believe is from Cipro toxicicty. Just wondering if anyone else has considered this.
Thanks!

This is something I am desperate to try! Do you have a doctor willing to do this? As with IVIG, I don't think it would be covered by insurance unless it passed all the qualifications. I just started researching it. Please share whatever you come across with us.

Hi Healthgirl,
I live in Canada and it is not covered for Peripheral Neuropathy and I don't believe it is in the US either. There are 2 private clinic in the city where I live that will do it. If you go to PubMed you will see what medical literature there is.
