Anyone with feedback from having Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments for post radiation? Starting in a few weeks and interested to know of the experience from anyone who has also had theses treatments.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Head & Neck Cancer Support Group.

I should have said more So I had the Osteoradioncrosis after 8 years being cancer free and feeling good. After the surgery on my skull base I did 40 chamber treatments which helped the healing and worked well. Like nmkblc said difficult to pick movies. I hope this helps you decide. It doesn’t hurt and my insurance paid for the treatment.

Thanks, @baz123. May I ask what type of cancer you were treating?
