OK for HBO (not the cable channel)

The wound clinic gave the OK for Kristan to receive treatment in a HyperBaric Oxygen (HBO) chamber. They hope it will help get her foot wounds heading in the healing direction. She tried it early last week, and that's when they found her ears weren't equalizing. The pressure was so great, she just about passed out from the pain, which then lingered on for the rest of the week. They sent her to the Ear-Nose-Throat Doc, who inserted ear tubes that will allow the pressure to equalize. But she thinks those are not healing up right either, so it's back to the ENT today.
