Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hi, Dana, We have done both hard and soft chamber HBOT and in both cases our 4 yr old son went through periods of sleepiness - sometimes mild and sometimes extreme or extended. After our last round of 40 hard chamber HBOT dives our son had diarrhea. Don't know if that's a coincidence or not, as I haven't heard of that being a side effect of HBOT. Our son is normally constipated and HBOT has helped that somewhat. But I think sleepiness with HBOT is very common.

Today my two boy just laid around all day and both fell asleep mid day which is unusual (except during yeast die off detox) and they slept a long time. We even put them in the chamber for their second dive and they slept the entire time! Still laying around some this evening. They have also had some diarrhea this week. > > Could this be the detox I hear about from HBOT?

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 When my children sleep it is usually a healing response in a situation like this where their body is resting or needs extra rest from healing. They didn't have HBOT but that is the response they have for example after accupuncture when they really needed it, or after being given a homeopathic remedy for the first time and it is working. A healing response would be my best guess. Diarrea could mean a lot of things, could mean that you need to back down on clo, probiotics or vitamin c, or add magnesium or psyllium (one of mine could not take magnesium and supplements without psyllium or he had diarrea). I heard that HBOT helped control yeast because yeast cannot live in the oxygen rich environment. If it is die off from yeast occuring during the sessions, I wonder if activated charcoal given an hour after HBOT would help absorb die off? What supplements are you on? Are you giving the probiotics after meals an hour away from the HBOT? I would be... -- In , dana pope <danamichellepope@...> wrote: > > We are at 55 hours in the HBOT (soft chamber from Oxyhealth).
