Mysteries, coverups, not-to-be-believed but proven-true injuries, and careers destroyed. Children too. This is the stuff of Tom Clancy. And Netflix. And ongoing pain and suffering and Agencies walking away from the victims. This is another example of medicine and politics failing patriotic victims wounded in the line of duty and left to their own devices for coping with an uncertain and degraded future. That is, until some of them starting finding out about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and other alternative therapies that are giving them their lives back. Read More

If rangers in the National Park Service were experiencing among their wildlife populations the equivalent of what DoD and the VA call “the suicide epidemic”, they would not ignore immediately available solutions. They would move heaven and earth to understand the crisis, and find antidotes or vaccines, or any treatments that would save the wildlife. Yet the culture in the VA – their “arrogance of ignorance” – prevents Veterans and their caregivers from knowing about or receiving immediate help available with HBOT and other alternative therapies.

Lately, polarized politics turns all problems into wicked problems. Thus, politics has become a series of half-truths dressed up as policy statements that become rallying cries and wish lists. Concerning Veterans, four half-truths that have become whole lies are instructive. The sad fact is also that the VA and DoD persist in continuing to repeat the lies that their research proves that HBOT is unproven, unsafe, ineffective, costly, risky, or worse.

In the world of athletes and service members, there’s a particularly odious reality: service members and athletes are expendable commodities that have to be replenished or taken off the books to achieve peak performance, to win. On this Labor Day, here’s a FACT CHECK ON TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP of untreated brain wounds. It would be a one-time adjusted cost of $19.7 Billion to treat and help heal all 877,450 TBI Veterans with 80 HBOT treatments.

It is not hyperbole to draw parallels between the NFL and the VA [and DoD as well] when it comes to willful ignorance about how to both diagnose and treat brain wounds, no matter when suffered. And even they know that the earlier the diagnosis and treatment, the greater the likelihood that suicides, suffering and costs are reduced.

The validity of using HBOT for wound healing to the brain is validated in the most recent research. Unsurprisingly, delivering oxygen under pressure safely and economically leads to effective wound healing. And numerous other interventions for comorbid maladies have a much better chance of effectiveness when the concussion cascade is interrupted and reversed.

This Sergeant Major’s results were so life changing/restoring that the WWB doctor began prescribing HBOT whenever requested by the case managers.  Since then, a dozen and a half active-duty marines have been successfully treated, with funding provided by local citizens supporting the CFoNCE requests as well as other charities including TreatNOW located in Washington, DC.

If you want to help end suicides, you have to help heal Brain Wounds so that Service Members have a chance at a lifetime of health, not a moment of relaxation from pain and suffering. Now get out there and refer the brain wounded to us and lobby those VSOs and your state legislatures to join in the functional medicine approach to helping restore health and Quality of Life to the wounded and their families. Get the VSOs to fund and lobby hard at the state and federal levels to actually help heal brain wounds.
