Guest guest Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Dr. G told me that it was way too much oxygen for already overstimmulated brains. Both of my boys spect scans showed their lobes " white hot " . We did 21 rounds of HBOT and Dr. G said that could have contributed to the damage. Another thing I can kick myself about. Cherie From: umeshmadhav <umeshmadhav@...> Subject: Why not HBOT? Date: Sunday, May 17, 2009, 11:05 AM I wanted to know why does Dr. Goldberg NOT recommend HBOT. I saw a presentation of his in which he mentioned that it can harm kids, but he did not elaborate why. I would have thought that it can help increase oxygen supply to the brain which should help the child. Thanks, Umesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Did Dr G tell you why these " white hot " formed? He´s mentioned that in presence of viral/bacteriae there´s a shut down of blood perfusion but I didn´t get the reason for hyperperfused areas. Can someone explain that? > > > From: umeshmadhav <umeshmadhav@...> > Subject: Why not HBOT? > > Date: Sunday, May 17, 2009, 11:05 AM > > > > > > > > > I wanted to know why does Dr. Goldberg NOT recommend HBOT.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Too much Oxygen in some areas that don't need it can cause the areas to become overactive (white hot). And we don't want that in some areas of the brain. With SSRI's you can be more selective about where you want more oxygen. Does that help? Did I say it right? - > > > > > > From: umeshmadhav <umeshmadhav@> > > Subject: Why not HBOT? > > > > Date: Sunday, May 17, 2009, 11:05 AM > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I wanted to know why does Dr. Goldberg NOT recommend HBOT.
