Guest guest Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 My son feels better during cloudy and rainy weather and hates sunny weather. Would this mean he would not do well with HBOT because that would increase pressure? Isn't the air pressure lower in rainy weather? He has anxiety and I read somewhere this could be remedied with more oxygen. We've done van Ardenne's oxygen protocol with no improvement. Also thinking about GABA and L-Theanine for anxiety.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Hi Kent,  About 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with jawbone infection in all 4 quadrants and prescribed 40 hyberbic O2 treatments which I received at Grossmont Hospital near San Diego. It was a large chamber that held 6-8 people. By the description on your website, it sounds like you use about the same. I had 1 treatment/day, 5 days/wk, for 8 weeks.  At that time, I had had CFS for 18 years and was too disabled to sit up for more than a few minutes, had trouble remembering my address etc., and had not been able to drive for about 2 years. They picked me up in a van.  By the 6th treatment, I could drive myself to the hospital about 12 miles away.  Totally unexpected by me. And within a few more treatents, my symptoms reduced, cognitive function dramatically improved, energy improved, and I could do more. The treatments didn't restore me to normalcy. I still lost energy by mid afternoon so couldn't live in full days like other people, but the improvements were substantial. My cells definitely liked having more o2.  My hope was that the improvements would last but within about 10 days of the last treatment, my health began a gradual regression. The treatments did handle the jaw bone infection. I'm very happy for you that you found hyperberics at such an early stage in your illness and have experienced the benefits you have. I hope the improvements are lasting for you. I wish I knew exactly what they did that improved me and what the extra oxygen was unable to address.  I do think it's great that someone is offering hyperberics in a group setting, 40 treatments, at this price. While it wasn't curative or close for me, it sure gave me a boost for a while. And I would consider it again if I see enough improvements in myself that it might make a more lasting difference. Thank-you for letting us all know about the availability.  Kay     ________________________________ From: kent_maclaughlin <kentm@...> Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 3:58 PM Subject: HBOT Question  I have been following this group for quite a long time. I am wondering if anyone has used HBOT to treat CFS or ME. I was dx'd with CFSME back in 2006 and got so bad I was put on Temp Disability. I was desparate and after all the meds and accupuncture and ND's did not work, I tried HBOT and it seemed to work for me. Although I recovered too slowly I was back to work in three months. It has been 5 years now and I still have some sleep issues but I am so glad not to be so sick anymore. We have formed a COOP program here in Wisconsin that offers the lowest cost for HBOT in the country - 40 treatments with lodging included for $2600. Although it was originally designed for Cerebral Palsy children, if you are interested please send me an email. More info on the program is located at http://www.o2clinics.com/Group_HBOT_COOP.pdf <http://www.o2clinics.com/Group_HBOT_COOP.pdf> <http://www.o2clinics.com/Group_HBOT_COOP.pdf <http://www.o2clinics.com/Group_HBOT_COOP.pdf> > . Please email me if you have any experience with HBOT and CFS, ME, Lymes, etc... My best to you all. Thanks, Kent MacLaughlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
