Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 10,507 Likes: 8 | HBO is the best!!!! Ive had lots of dives, so far 75 with 10 more to go. Its what healed me after surgery. I also give it credit for helping with my fatigue, arthritis in my back, anemia and jaw pain. Those items are just my personal experiences. It is necessary to prevent ostioradionecrosis, and for post radiation dental work.
My 'dives' we done in a glass cylinder where I watched tv or slept the 2 hours I was in there. No mask was used for me. The only problem I had was due to radiation after effects where I wasnt able to swallow enough to clear my ears. I had to get tubes put in my ears like kids who have alot of ear infections do. Since then, no problem at all with the treatments.
HBO is the easiest tx Ive done.
