Thanks Ed and Paul! This is an interesting subject to me as Ive done way more HBO than I care to count and Ive also had OC 3 times. I was thinking of checking with some wound care specialists that I know but then I thought its kinda like asking a surgeon if they would recommend surgery.

Tammy if you (or anyone else) finds any studies that have been done on this please post for all of us to learn from.

Thanks!
