Gary,
Yes, I went through approximately 40 HBO treatments a year and a half ago, following my first sequestrectomy. Coincidentally or not, it was during the time of the HBO treatments that I became very ill with what I thought was the flu, but turned out to be aspiration pneumonia. The HBO treatments led to a serious deterioration of my vision by causing minor cataracts to grow, and my hearing also got worse during that period.
The good news: I got cataract surgery and see better than I have since age 10 and I now wear hearing aids, which I probably needed for a while anyway. I only had to pay for the hearing aids. Thanks goodness for Medicare.
Best of luck with all of your issues.
