I wanted to try this but was not allowed as I have asthma. Good luck with the treatment and let us know how you get on

I've never heard of this treatment. Can you direct me to some information regarding the treatment, intended outcome, science behind it's efficacy. Also, have you heard or ketamine therapy for fibro & depression?

I'm having my sessions at the Leeds ms centre it's £15 per session they recommend 15 consecutive sessions then 1 to 2 sessions every week thereafter yes it's expensive but you pay as you go and I need to try this as my quality of life is affected greatly with cfs.

Thanks for posting, I live in Leeds and had never heard of this place, or oxygen therapy for that matter! Would love to hear how you get on with your sessions. Do you know if they open in the evening at all? I work so wouldn't be able to get there in the day.
