    Me and my PFO...

    I have had some unusual experiences because of my PFO (Nicola). It put me in the chamber on a number of occassions over 5 years!

    At the time I was completely unaware of what was happening to me and had to make some pretty heavy decisions as a result.

    Unfortunately I was pretty much on my own in regards to hyperbaric medicine and my cardiology knowledge was pretty slim at the time. I have written a pretty decent article on the subject on my own site and was trying to get some feed back.

    As usual its pretty full on stuff from me so be warned, I pull no punches..

    I would really like to hear from other PFO divers with similar experiences or people who are just worried about having one.

    Quite a few search engines (Google and vBulletin included) ignore words of three letters or less. But if you search for pfo* then this is bypassed.
