Hi Eva, I had HBO treatments in 2010 and 2018 for my LV . The treatnments were very helpful in healing very severe open ulcers. Due to the fact that Medicare does not pay for HBO for LV patients unless you are diabetic I could not afford to continue. HBO is a very good treatment for LV. It is one of the best ways to get oxygenated blood to the wound. I hope you can try it. Zenk

Hello Zenk,
Thank you for your replay. I appreciate your prompt replies always. I started with HBO treatment and had 5 treatments until now but don't feel/see any changes yet. My right ankle is still swelling and the ulcers are still the same. I am planning to take at least 20 sittings in the HBO for 1 hour. And am taking 1 xarelto of 20mg daily.
Can you recall how many HBO sittings did you have and after which one did you feel any better?
Thank you and regards,
Eva
