<font color='#FF0000'>hi all, me again to give you an update, i read your post hyperbaric, about contacting a hyperbaric unit, i umd and ard for a bit cos i felt a bit daft about it, but i decided what the hell.
so i phoned wirral hyperbaric and explained my predicament and they could not of been more helpful they put me straight thro to a dive doctor, i told him all my symptoms and i mentioned about the pfo possibility, he could rule out this possibility as its got a very specific type of headache, anyway to cut a long story short, we got it down to two things first was cramps in the back of neck due to cold water/diving position and the second was carbon dioxide toxicity, brought on by over exertion when diving , so no surprises which one we decided is the cause, once i told him about old speedy fins, alias my buddy, so moral of the story is if you have any concerns what soever about feeling dodgy after a dive get on the blower to the hyperbaric units as they are a brilliant assett that are more than willing to help.
so i am happy, i thought for a minute i might have to stop doing a sport i love, it also shows the value of sights like this because i could potentially have been risking my life when diving and not known anything about it, keep up the good work and safe diving to all.  |
