With that being said, I believe that what she means is that she is done arguing. That is what we should all do. However, that would require the hard chamber folks to admit that the soft chambers are safe and beneficial. It is time for a truce so that the industry can move forward. > It is no longer as easy as forgive and forget. AAHA is about to torpedo the entire off-label HBOT movement. Their going to create awareness alright. Massive awareness of failure. Darin has accurately pinpointed the inherent and perpetual conflict of interest for AAHA. Founder and President e Creacy treats her husband in a portable chamber. She has stated multiple times that this chamber has " saved Bill's life. " AAHA officer Weible daily treats patients in portable hyperbaric chambers. AAHA officer Tom Fox has publicly stated portable chambers are dangerous because they are not approved by ASME-PVHO. This is a nonsensical circumstance. Mr. Fox's own children were treated in the UK in 1998 in non ASME- PVHO, non FDA-approved chambers; however, according to his position today, his wife's decision to treat their children in those chambers created a life-threatening for their children. Mr. Fox routinely fails to acknowledge that over 2,100,000 treatments have been safely administered without incident in these non ASME-PVHO, non FDA approved chambers. To make matters worse, Mr. Fox has himself personally altered multiple portable chambers, personally making them dangerous and absolutely in violation of not only ASME-PVHO but also FDA. At the HBOT 2008 symposium, the owner of the altered chamber was in attendance and planned to publicly confront Mr. Fox; however, Mr. Fox and Mrs. Creacy took advantage of private issues they knew about the owner's personal life and threatened to share this embarrassing information if Mr. Fox were confronted. Subsequently, the confrontation did not take place--at the symposium. Now, this sort of thing is usually called extortion. Or blackmail. It's not the sort of thing practiced by people who are professionals-- except for professional criminals. Also during the symposium, Mr. Fox gave a presentation on treating Iraq vets with blast injuries with HBOT. He described the injury as bubbles forced into the system, i.e., like decompression sickness or an air embolism. He claimed to have found an obscure reference in the military medical literature that the US Army declared HBOT as the standard of care treatment for blast injury. He stated it was from 1990 or 1991; however, he refused to provide the actual reference. Because of his past history of untruth and extortion, the data he presented at the symposium was initially doubted. It has since been learned there is a program to be announced by the US Army from San , Texas in a few short weeks wherein they will be treating blast-injured vets with HBOT, and apparently the Texas housewife who extorts her way in and out of circumstances is all set to put AAHA on the map by participating and/or leading the US Army's venture with HBOT. However, it appears this participation is contingent upon the AAHA's agreement with and acceptance of a treatment protocol designed by the most recognized authority in Hyperbaric Medicine, the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS). Now, the UHMS protocol for air embolism and decompression sickness calls for anywhere from 2 ATA all the way up to 2.4 ATA. That's high pressure, about as high a pressure protocol as there is in Hyperbaric Medicine. Of course, that means Mrs. Creacy, the AAHA President, certainly can't come out and publicly state endorsement of the therapeutic benefits of 1.3 ATA AIR that's saved her husband's life and thousands upon thousands of others. It might jeopardize her San opportunity. It has been well established by Rockswold and Harch and Neubauer and other nonextortionists and non-liars that the optimum protocol for treating brain-injury is 1.5 ATA. In fact, the UHMS has declared brain-injury cannot be improved upon or benefitted from HBOT-- yet the Texas housewife and the Canadian madman have hooked up with and are whoring with the pirates at the UHMS--so as to get their names in the papers and their pictures on the cover of Time magazine by agreeing to the greater than 2 ATA protocol. As for the soldiers, when subjected to the greater than 2 ATA protocol, seizures will be induced, deaths are likely to occur, and improvements will be minimal to marginal to none and it will be eventually declared not worth the risk of seizures and death, and so HBOT for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), i.e., brain-injury will be declared a failure. It is the confirmation of failure in treating brain-injury with HBOT that the UHMS seeks, and the president and vice president in charge of vice of the American Association of Hyperbaric Awareness are going to make the whole country aware and the entire medical community aware of the fact that brain-injury called PTSD cannot be improved by HBOT. That will be the only by-product of this AAHA stunt. A failure. This will directly impact you and me and us all and the quality of life of our brain-injured loved ones. You can kiss HBOT goodbye as this will set HBOT back by 10 years if not forever. But what else do you think liars, cheats, thieves, and extortionists would produce.
