Hi @baptizo
Sorry to hear about your episode of DCS. Have you already called DAN to discuss the episode and your current state?
I'm assuming your DCS occurred after your second dive of the third day, is that correct? Was your ascent from that dive normal, <30 ft/min, and did you do a safety stop? If you don't mind, what were the symptoms and signs of your episode? Was your hyperbaric treatment a normal Navy table 6 or similar? Did all of your symptoms and signs resolve after the HBO treatment or did some remain. How long has it been since the episode now? You say you are not feeling well, does this seem like residual from the DCS or different?
As you have discovered from your reading, Cressi RGBM is one of the most conservative of the decompression algorithms, including the factory set SF0. I would imagine that Cressi RGBM would fall somewhere between a Buhlmann GF high of 75-85, maybe you will see from your experience with Subsurface.
Your SB profile states you joined 10 years ago but only lists 0-24 dives, is this right? Do you have previous dives or series of dives that look like what you did in Cozumel?
Best of luck in fully recovering from this event. Thanks for sharing, we all look forward to learning more about our diving.
