I had uni Mx 7 2012 and then CMF chemo and radiaion for 5 weeks. I was burnt to a crisp and the dumb doctors at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance gave me Miaderm to prevent radiation burns after I was burnt. SMART HUH??? Anyway now my skin is like fine leather which is messing up my reconstruction.  I am looking to try hyperbaric oxygen therapy to improve the tightness of fibrosis and have better out comes with reconstruction.  Has anyone had the treatment, and did it improve the condition/texture of their skin. I feel like I have an iron bra onmost of the time which is a perpetual every breath reminder of the misery inflicted on me by"treatment".
