Bend it like Bolt

[Hobby]

Jay,glad you're Ok!!!
Have'nt read all threads in detail,did your dive partners(?)computers show ant differences to yours?Were they OK?
It is an old cliche but they used to say if you dive enough,no matter what tables you follow you'll catch a bend.
I Have'nt yet but there's time!
As you and some others here know I've never had a computer and am very out of touch with that side of things,at times really feeling like an anachronism without one(remember Bren?).I tend to dive to USN tables.
I am amazed however that there's such a gap between your computer and the USN,esp as now there's much more liberal tables than the USN around.
All I can say is get well soon,and Bloody Hell!
Hobby.

<font color='#0000FF'>Sorry to hear that Jay - get fit soon mate. Just goes to show it can (and will !) happen to any of us if we dive long enough.

All the best
Paul
(BTW - did you count to pot dive as one of the '82 to go' &nbsp;

Just as an aside, what happens when you next sign a medical form as it asks have you been treated for DCI, will you need a medical clearance by seeing a doctor. Only pertinent I suppose if you go on a course or sometimes abroad they ask.

had a pot dive after missing 40 mins of deco, had no symptomes, but they just wanted to be sure, the air lift off the boat into the big seaking was the best bit

but you feel so stupid, its your own incompitance that has got you here, and theres a dozen people running arround after you, not to mention the 6k bill to the tax payers (thx all)

made me feel privaliged to live in a sociaty that looks after us so well



one eyeopener was the ppo2 of 2.8barr they treat you with
i know your reasting, but it way above the standard 1.4


a note on computers
of all the divers i know nobody uses dive tables, they all use there computers and experiance to plan there dives, the only exeption to this is people in traning, and people diving beond the range of there computers (multi gas and exterded range)
having a backup plan is allways a good idea, and a must for deco diving

Just incase anyone is interested, I've uploaded the LOG of the two dives - you need the Suunto dive manager software to open it but it gives all the info from the two dives.

MATTBIN. I've just had to get my medical form signed by DDRC/Diving doctor after a bend, plus it has to be done every year regardless of age and you have to pay for it of course. .

And even though it hurts like a b*****d it could be worse. Chin up Heads up. &nbsp;
