Haven't been on in a while. Glad to see some old friends still here. My husband is cancer free for over a year now. He finally started eating orally again. It took him having Hyperbaric treatments to clear the over growth on his tongue before he could get his feeding tube removed. The growth was making any thing he tried to eat stick on the tongue and in his throat. It was a blessing his ENT came up with the suggestion of the oxygen treatments. It was a miracle after ever kind of swish and spit or swallow, antibiotics and every med you could imagine (nothing worked) except for the oxygen treatments. If anyone has this problem it is a amazing treatment. It is a tank that is under pressure that forces oxygen into the tissue even into blood cells and heals. Ususally used for diabetics that wont heal But works for post cancer treatments also. :)) Hope everyone is doing better and any questions feel free to ask. Love to all
Terry

    Hi Terry
    That is some supper great news, and glad to hear that the HBO treatment worked so well. My ENT ordered HBO treatment for me because the Lazar nerve treatments are going so well, my first HBO will be on Monday and I am praying that it will help me to swallow again.

    God Bless

    Happy to hear the inspiring news. I've had a clear Ct and last week a clear PET. Scheduled to start HBOT in November before having dental implants to replace the lower teeth they removed during my surgery. Thanks for taking the tie to share your husband's good news and inspire everyone.
