Hello there.
A good friend send me your e-mail, with your questions about diving after the bends.
I was personally involve in an accident about 4 years ago, phase II of DCS, after treatment 6 rides in the chamber, i was discharge from medical treatment, treated by the military (excellent treatment i should said). i got back to diving in 3 weeks (yes, i know...) at first just in a pool on pure O2, for about 2 weeks, until i felt secure and (bore), begun doing shallow reef dives on 80%, very shy at first, i keep on playing with PP. of 1.6 at various depth for small intervals of time, them slowly increasing the level of complexity on more demanding dives. |
Well current thinking is that if you are using an RB (fixed PO2), then you would stay well clear of 1.6.
Even on OC, I'd not use 1.6 for the 'working' part of the dive.
