It got progressively worse but soon after I finished treatments it returned to how it was before. One of the most common problems encountered is having trouble clearing my ears. I ended up having to get tubes in my ears. So dont be surprised if this happens and your husband needs tubes. Its outpatient surgery and they will fall out on their own. Overall I benefitted greatly from HBO and would recommend it to anyone facing healing issues. After battling cancer, the side effects and after effects I think you will find HBO will be a very helpful tool for your husband.
I was quoted a price of $700 per session which was inexpensive compared to what you mentioned. This wasnt an issue at all since for me it was covered by insurance.
