Usually oral cancer patients who have HBO do whats called Marx Protocol which basically is 20 prior to procedure and 10 after. Check with your insurance company, or some patients negotiate a reduced price directly with the hospital and make payments. http://www.hyperbaric-oxygen-info.com/necrosis.html
