Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts) Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | My problem was that My ears wouldn't hold the pressure. The ears need to hold a 20 and mine coudn't even hold a 2 or 3. I had to get tubes ut in my ears and then the problem was an insy=tant headache, that was unbearable. We tried it at different times and then I was told I couldn't do the HBO. The Dr that wants to remove my jaw suggested HBO now . After he talked to UPMC's HBO team, he forgot HBO treatments. I sure wish Michael the best during this. My ENT removed the right tube a few months ago but the left one is too bloody to be removed as of now. I'm stuck with the headaches instead of being one for someone else. LOL
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April. --- Passed away 5/14/14, will be greatly missed by everyone here
