I have never used the chamber, but my son has used it several times during his treatment. He has said that it helps to clear his brain fog, I know it has helped others here as well. Maybe they will come along and share.

I asked my LLMD and he says that it is OK but only in conjunction with antibotics. I'm going to get some sessions in and I'll post back w/ results. I would encourage others who go this route to do the same.

have used the HBO chamber a few times and i could tell a difference (even after the first treatment) When i was first searching for answers to the questions about my symptoms (before diagnosis) i studied about the HBO because it seemed ideal for treatment of about anything..............exspecially brain and cns issues - anything that gives pure oxygen to your brain and cells to heal faster is a good thing!

Check out this link:

also the costs vary depending on where you are! or decide to go for treatment!

Lyme is not one of the diseases that is covered by insurance - imagine that!!

i think the cheapest i have found is $100 / per treatment

(or you can also purchase your own)

Connie would have more great info on this subject - she used one throughout her recovery!!

PM her!
