Am looking into a mild hyperbaric chamber as I have been on every possible drug and am still sick. It seems like everything I've tried is temporary and my body can't handle the drugs anymore. Herbs have provided short term relief as well. Tried Rife the other day after not having done it for over 2 years and feel like I've been electrocuted.

If anyone has used mild hyperbaric with successs please tell me. Very expensive but at this point I will mortgage my house to get help.

Mariel25...

There is a thread on this forum I strongly suggest you read (all 9 pages):

http://flash.lymenet.org/scripts/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=125201;p=0

Mild hyperbaric (home chamber with supplemental oxygen) gave me my life back, med-free, from severe Neuro-Lyme and co-infections.

That said, it is a protocol that you need to commit to daily...over an extended time to expect results.

I have developed a cooperative hyperbaric project that assists people in obtaining chambers for a reduced cost through different options (I don't take compensation, and I don't represent any company). So, if you are interested in the program, you can PM me for more information or if you have questions.

A good resource on mild hyperbaric is a book by Dr. Paul Harch, entitled "The Oxygen Revolution".

I am also working on an educational website which I will share with anyone via PM.

Mariel, you will find many turning to mhbot after your exact story. I myself am one of them. This is where you turn when you have hit rock bottom. Thank God for Phoiph. She has been where both of us are.

Mild HBO can be well worth it, from what I've read.

Eyesight can be all fuzzy, though, for a few days after some "dives" just to know about that in advance. For some more than for others.

If your inner ear is at all trouble, that may need some thought, too.

A few years ago there was a wonderful blog by a young woman who did exceeding well with her own mild HBOT unit.

However, about your recent experience with rife: Sorry to hear of that icky fried feeling. Do you recall if you did 10K afterward? That is supposed to help calm down any reaction.

starting out (or staring over) just five minutes, just a couple frequencies is good to test the waters. It can be hard to know until afterward if we did too much -- or had the right support on hand.

Just to be sure you have the book, or to answer any questions you may have:

Vision changes are more often associated with higher pressure HBOT, and are usually temporary, however, some people have also experienced a worsening of cataracts with higher pressures. To my knowledge, this has not been an issue with lower pressures.

Ability to equalize the pressure in your ears when compressing and decompressing (like when flying) is something that most people are able to learn to do fairly easily, unless they have a head cold (in which case they should refrain from "diving").

For others (like me) who had severe ear inflammation from Lyme, it took a little time to work up to full pressure slowly and gently over several days...but after that, it was not a problem. (I have done over 1,000 "dives" to date.)

The difference I see between Rife and mHBOT, is that although they both have anti-pathogenic abilities, mHBOT has the advantage of healing properties as well...for example: stem cell release, nerve and blood vessel regeneration, reduction of inflammation, returning blood flow/decreased hypoperfusion, increased white blood cell production, switching "on" healing genes, improved detoxification, etc., etc., etc.

To illustrate what mHBOT can do, here are some before and after mHBOT SPECT scans of patients with different chronic brain conditions (download PDF from icon at bottom of page):

Also, here's a short, informative, introductory video on how hyperbaric oxygen works in the body:

Yes I did the 10,000 frequency but I am still in severe nerve pain. I am not sure what if anything the Rife machine has done. I know others swear by it and I'm not a quitter but the suffering is too much to take.

Can we do Rife and the hbot at the same time?

I personally would not recommend it...

From my own experience and observation, mHBOT is a very powerful treatment, and using it in combination with certain other therapies can interfere and be overwhelming to the system when people are very ill and toxic...
