“Side effects and possible complications of HBOT
Lung damage.
Fluid buildup or bursting (rupture) of the middle ear.
Sinus damage.
Changes in vision, causing nearsightedness, or myopia.
Oxygen poisoning, which can cause lung failure, fluid in the lungs, or seizures.
Geez, they left out:
increased chance of being struck by lightning.
All of the above is 100% fear mongering.
Yes, all of that COULD happen (except the lightning) if you have someone running the chamber that has zero training. Hyperbaric chamber operators are required to have extensive training so as to AVOID the above.
I actually train persons to run hyperbaric decompression chambers for the commercial diving industry.
If your interested in this there are some great books on Amazon. One is “Oxygen and the Brain, The Journey of a Lifetime” and “The Oxygen Revolution” by Dr. Paul Harch. Dr. Harch has a HBO2 clinic in New Orleans and is on the forefront of applying this treatment.
