When doing HBO, watch for your vision to have significant changes. These changes usually occur around 10 - 14 days into the treatments. It usually is only temporary but I have heard from other members of HBO helping to make them develop early glaucoma, so pay attention to any change you notice. For me it was my far distance sight which was affected, driving became a bit blurry with far away road signs. I could easily make out people, cars, etc so I continued to drive. My sight returned back to normal at about 4-6 weeks post HBO. My vision had temporary changes 3 out of the 4 times Ive done HBO.

Be prepared to have HBO seem like its a full time job. Relax and try to take a nap to help the time in the tank not seem so bad. I was extra busy when I did my last rounds of HBO so it was a bit stressful for me to lay there "killing time" when I had a million other things I needed to be working on.

Good luck, hope it works for you.
