brianjarvis, HBOT can work and is good for you bones too. There is a nice chamber in Encinitas CA. You can sit for two hours and watch a movie or read. Great staff. But it takes two hours a day for 20 to 90 days to be effective. Forty hours were not effective for me.
But then at the risk of repeating myself this https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2893353/
was completely successful.
