I found this to be interesting and encouraging. At least there are studies and maybe help in the future for us!

Hi Mrs,

I saw a similar article and asked my vascular doctor about this. He said the hyperbaric chamber is not used on patients with fibro so insurance wouldn't cover it and it's very expensive.

There are also risks.

Our local teaching university hospital tried this and it did not work. One man reported slight improvement that lasted only 2 hours -the others nothing
