"At the ripe old age of 26 my life was over. It started with pain throughout my body that wouldn’t stop. Doctors told me it was just a “woman thing”, seems like that’s a good thing to say when they don’t know what’s wrong. When I wouldn’t settle for that, the next diagnosis was arthritis, and so on and so on. After 12 years, I finally found a physician who diagnosed me successfully…Fibromyalgia. After being treated on Hilton Head Island, SC I started to feel much better. In no time at all, I went from 16 pills a day to 2 a day. I started walking again and lost 20 lbs to boot. I was able to be hugged again and hug back. I was back with my family and could now enjoy my Granddaughter. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy saved my life. I can now function normally…I’m back to enjoying life and making up for 20 lost years." Reida Anderson
Individual free standing Hyperbaric Oxygen centers focused on treating non-FDA approved conditions can chart only their own patients' progress. And because of HIPPA's privacy rules, they are not allowed to share that data with others. This blog's mission is to aggregate patients' experiences across allcenters so that we can learn more from each other.
If you or someone you care for has used Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, please post your experience here - good and bad. Just choose the Condition (e.g., Autism) and click on Comments.
Please be sure to include as much data as you can, such as: months/years of illness; other medications/therapies; the HBOT protocol (i.e., depth, duration, frequency, and total number of dives); age; and gender. Feel free to include additional information, including personal homepage url's.
If you operate an HBOT clinic, please place a link on your website to www.hbot.org to become a "Participating Clinic".
