I have had chronic lyme for eight years and have recently been doing mild HBOT (at a clinic). It has only been fourteen days but I do feel it is making some sort of impact on my tension headaches.
However, my doc only has me signed up for thirty rounds, and it seems that from what has been said online that some people need more.
I am afraid to stop it if it continues to work for me, so was thinking of renting a chamber.
I know many people here and on other forums use oxyhealth. I have sent them an email but they have yet to respond. I am wondering how much the rental costs (it seems most people use the respiro model), and if anyone can attest to their success with it.
I may keep up with the clinic if my doc permits, but it is a multi chamber, and I have heard some people think that is not as good (air could leak out)? Also, it is expensive.
Thanks everyone.

I contacted OxyHealth several years ago about chamber rentals and they were extremely expensive to rent. I don't know if anything has changed since then but it ranged from $750 per month for the smallest chamber up to $3,000 per month for the largest chamber that they have.
Definitely not something that I could afford so I was never able to do it.
Hope you find a way to keep doing the mhbot.
Take Care!
