Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for Peripheral Neuropathy

Hi @piatkowskisc

My neuropathy story is over on a cancer board because my neuropathy was radiation induced, but part of my extensive treatment included 40 rounds of hBOT. For me, it was a game changer.

I was on heavy steroids, Trental plus Vitamin E, and a B vitamin, but still was loosing muscle mass and hand arm/functionality. PT and OT were also used in conjunction with the hBOT.

Nothing changed until after hyperbaric, now I am practicing well, just fuzziness and some loss of finger sensitivity.

Granted, I had a very rare, atypical neuropathy. Also, I should note that the slight chemo-induced neuropathy in my toes remains just as bad as it was, despite all the treatment for the other neuropathy.

Good luck! Hopefully lots of others will chime in.

This is so helpful to me. I don’t have a definitive diagnosis, but we suspect my neuropathy is radiation induced can I ask what kind of doctor prescribe this treatment for you?
