hyperbaric treatments for CIRS??
I have the HLA gene and waiting for the CIRS results. My dx is everywhere and they want to start hyperbaric tx. Has anyone had success with this?

Hello @connecting29, You will notice that we added a little to the title of your discussion so that hopefully members with experience will see your discussion and share their experience. I did find this 2022 research on the topic that may be helpful.
"Conclusions
We conclude that HBOT is safe and tolerable, as no major side effects were recorded, and there were few minor side effects, in 624 HBOT sessions.
This study showed that the number of days between diagnosis and the first HBOT session affects the clinical outcome, indicating that this therapy should be applied as early as possible.
A positive outcome was observed in 73.5% (36/49) of patients, indicating the efficacy of the therapy. It is also suggested that HBOT is a possible adjuvant therapy for stabilizing SIRS patients with a traumatic or non-traumatic disease."

question on hyperbaric treatment for dementia patients.
I read that some persons suffering from short term memory loss, took HBOT treatments & were able to recover their memory. not sure to what extent. not sure this is true.
anyone know of dementia (memory) benefits derived thru HBOT?
seems conventional treatment for dementia limited in outcomes. so thinking of something outside the box.
