Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for radiation enteritis
Has anyone been treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy for radiation enteritis? If so, how successful was it, how difficult was it, and would you do it again?

@cb1952, may I ask what type of cancer was being treated?
I had radiation to my pelvis for cervical cancer, almost 20 years ago.
I wanna try it for neuropathy pain so would be curios to know if someone had it as well
