I have entered a program in Denton Texas that specializes in healing wounds internally and externally. I was refered to this specialist from my surgeon and GI. Most insurance companies I have found out will fight you hand and foot to cover the procedure and treatments for hyperbaric since it is not approved for fissure healing by the FDA. This wound healing clinic is new in their approach in the industry to include the chamber treatment. Right now my insurance company is making me go through traditional wound healing before i enter the hyperbaric chamber to heal my wounds. The traditional wound healing includes using special potentent hydrocortisone meds and acids to dry up the wounds to get them to shrink and close. After a month of this traditional wound healing treatment the doctors have to write a paper to my insurance company stating that they have tried all avenues possible and for me to enter the chamber for further healing. I have met people from all over the country flying in for chamber treatment for GI healing. I met one guy who came in walking in with a cane and in alot of pain and leave the chamber treatment without the cain and no pain meds. I hope that i can follow the same path. It took him 3 sessions in the chamber until he fully healed up. I will let everyone know my progress and if this chamber treatment will work. Their is alot of clinical trials that prove the chamber treatment works for healing fissures and inflamation in the rectum internally and externally.
Wish me luck.
Thanks
