Anyone has heard of this type of treatment?

Thank you in advance.

Isn't this what lungs are for?  Deep breathing exercises would do this.

No doubt a "traditional" treatment of some sort.

OK, then, you got me.  I honestly thought the lungs oxygenated the blood and
the heart pumped it throughout our cellular structure.

What does a heart/lung machine do?

Right.  That's for oxygen that is picked up by hemoglobin molecules in
the blood after diffusing through the alveoli of the lungs into the
bloodstream.  But a *bolus* of oxygen injected directly into the
vascular system can cause an "air embolus" - just like Murray said.

I went back to the original post and frankly, I have to think Francis was
referring to oxygenation of the blood and not pumping air into the one's
vascular system.  Really, professionals, think about it?  Could Francis
possibly be referring to a known lethal procedure?

His question becomes, then, is their an oxygenation device out there that
supplements the lung's ability to oxygenate blood and does that have any
affect on tinnitus?

Good grief.

p.s.

Maybe he is asking about Hyperbaric Oxygenation Therapy.  I'll bet this is
what he was referring to:

I bet not, since his question about HBO therapy has already been
addressed.

Bu it doesn't matter in the long run - because either way the issue
has now been addressed.

Not knowingly, he wouldn't.

Francis, you will remember, is the person who recommends trying
injecting a concoction of herbs into the bloodstrem as well.

That's not at all how I read it - espectially since his question about
hyperbaric oxygen treatment was addressed on this newsgroup just a
short time ago.  To me, when francis asks about "injecting oxygen into
the bloodstrem," he means just that.

Yes, I do remember that.  I don't recall him mentioning the particular herbs
or the formula.  Just saying "herbs" brings up a vision of my spice rack but
then all manner of stuff is injected into the blood stream.  I suppose some
of this stuff is derived from flora, like morphine and glucose.

It struck me that since there are heart lung machines, and since these
machines are capable of oxygenating blood, that there might also be a
machine that takes blood from one part of the body, oxygenates it, and then
returns it to another part of the body to supplement the oxygen injected by
the lungs.  Simple question, huh?

Exactly!  I wonder why Dr.Nagler finds herb extracts to be so
different from the other kinds of mineral medicine he has been using
on patients.  Perhaps herbs extracts don't sound 'proper',
'conventional', 'orthodox' enough to him to warrant his attention.

OK, FP.

What herbs do you suggest I inject into my bloodstream?  What are the
proper doses?  And what types of sterilization procedures are used in
the preparation?

If you come to China, I could introduce you to my ENT doctor who was
trained in both western and traditional Chinese medicine.  The
treatment is very cheap.  10 intravenous injection costed me only less
than US$150.  I produced the name of the medicine here before in one
of my posts and now I don;t recall.  So please look up my post.  But
what you could do is to contact the medical centre in a nearby
university where there are medical students from mainland China and
you share this idea with them.  But even without this herb extract,
you could do it over where you are using mineral solution.  The idea
is the same.  It is used to melt down what the traditional herbalists
call 'bruised blood particles'.  But western doctors don't call the
particles by that name.  They might call it some kind of deposit on
the wall of the blood vessels.  But the idea is this: you might have
suffered some kind of wound in your head when you were much younger
and the old wound is coming back to give you trouble after such a time
lag!  I suffered a head wound about a year ago and it came back to
give me ring on the left side of the brain.  In the beginning, I even
forgot i had a wound about a year ago until i stopped the use of
hydrochloridethiazide.  The latter did not cause my T but camouflaged
the problem by spreading it all over the head.  It was only after I
stopped its use that i discovered the problem has been taking place
where the old wound is.  Thus with the help of the injection(currently
over), and the use of a vibration to do massaging on my left head each
day, i have done away with more than 80% of the ring.  I hate to use
the word 'cure' as that word means it will never come back and also
means total silence.  Currently what is left is a slight 'hiss' sound
with low frequency, which is very livable.

I have been off Ativan for almost 2 months and am not using any herb
pills for sleeping at all.  You have to trust me for what i am telling
you because what i have gone through is as valid as any controlled
study.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.  I'll sure keep in in mind.

It's as valid as any controlled study with an N of one and lacking a control.

If you were really interested in getting a cure for your tinnitus as
opposed to being interested as a skeptic, I could fax the Chinese name
to you and you could bring it to a good doctor who is versed in
Chinese.  Afterwards, you could import them and use it on yourself.
The herb extract is well made by multinational corporations.

And what types of sterilization procedures are used in

I am amazed you even ask this question.  Do you think China is as
backward as how it is shown in the Hollywood movies?

I think you'll find that the machine simply pumps the blood around,
but it is the LUNGS that do the actual oxygenating.

Certainly that might be the case with some machines but a google search for
"blood oxygenation" produces links to lots of machines that oxygenate the
blood, including references to heart/lung machines that both pump and
oxygenate blood.  Check it out.

The lungs aren't doing anything when a heart-lung machine is used. In fact,
the patient isn't breathing. The machine does both the pumping and the
oxygenation.

Do these folks report ringing in their ears?  If not, then we have yet
another cure for tinnitus.  :-)

I have just been done that.  What is wrong with that?  It feels great.
I am still alive!  The doctor dissolves some herb power into salted
water which is to be pumped into my body through intravenous
injection.

No, i read something about drawing out one's blood and then mixing
one's blood with oyxgen or oxygen-content stuff and then re-injecting
the blood into his body again.  This process is nothing but
traditional.  It is quite modern.  If you know the specific medical
terms for this process, please tell me.

Maybe if you told me *where* you read about this procedure and gave me

It sounds like you're talking about Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
(ECMO).  But back up a step and have your doctor take a simple measurement
with a pulse oximeter, which tells you what percentage of oxygen your blood
is carrying of the total amount that it is capable of carrying.  These are
the little machines that clip painlessly onto your finger or ear.

Unless you're suffering from some reasonably significant cardiopulmonary
problem, you'll see that your hemoglobin is ~98% saturated with O2.

Injecting additional O2, whether through the lungs or ECMO is unlikely to
cause a significant change in saturation.  It's hard to imagine that there
would be any effect at all on tinnitus, but go ahead an try - and be sure to
let us know if it works for you.

You may be right.  I have not been expressing it in professional
terms.  i read a post in the old alt.archive that someone draws bloods
out of his body and mixes it with oxygen and then has the blood
re-injected it into his body again.

FP, hyperbaric oxygen treatment (or anything similar to hyperbaric
oygen treatment) has nothing whatsoever to do with drawing blood out
of the body, mixing it with oxygen, and then re-injecting the blood
back in the body.

Here's to continued success with your treatment!

The blood is oxygenated by red blood cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to
be released throughout the body.
One of the most serious conditions occurs in scuba divers when they come up
from depth too fast and the gases concentrated in the fluid of the ciruculation
expands to form a bubble which causes stroke, or worse.
