Heck it took all of 2 years for my mouth to recovery from my Tx so by my standards you weren't fully recovered from your cancer Tx before they attacked your mouth again.
I doubt the HBO Tx's have anything to do with it as their function is to promote faster healing by forcing more O2 into the cells but I'm not any sort of expert on that topic.
There are many on this site that have had HBO so maybe they can shed some light on that topic.
