Hi, just heard about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), has anyone tried it, got results .... anything? I live in Cape Town, S. Africa, but very very very expensive. Should I give it a try? Just passed my one year mark, complete C5/C6. Any comments or advice would be much appreciated. Regards.

From what I've heard, it's for open wounds such as pressure sores and what not. What are you trying to cure? Surely not your paralysis I hope. My god man, think of the money you're saving on shoes!

By the way. Allow me to welcome you to Simon's 3 ring circus of gimps n' gimpettes gathered together going forward grandly into the great unknown.

The chamber was used to prevent swelling in the spinal cord years ago.....

But you would have to be put in it immediately after your injury.....
