I've researched about HBOT too, but being on the good ole NHS, they don't offer it, and the cost is way out of my price league. I'd love to try it, the science is sound, there have been some good results, and plenty of folk seem to get something out of it...

DJhasty, it would be brilliant if you did a diary about your HBOT, I'll be fascinated to see how it goes for you - and I'll keep my fingers crossed that you achieve some pain reduction. That would be worth any amount of time and hassle

Good luck.

Bram.

OMG DJ! You're really having a rough time of this! I'm very interested in knowing how the HBOT goes for you! I really hope it provides relief for you.

I've no idea if my insurance will or will not cover it. I'm stuck in limbo for where to go next. HBOT and/or Calmare are on the agenda.
Please do keep us posted.

Thanks Bram and AZ-Di. HBOT is not covered by Medicare either. HBOT is considered Off-Label, meaning the FDA has not approved it for the treatment of CRPS. We will have to cover this ourselves. It was difficult to decide just what treatment to put our money on. HBOT is the least invasive and somewhat helpful. We are hoping for the best.

There was a lady here who had good success with this with her daughter. She made a thread on it - give it a search :-) Let us know if you try it!
