Hi!
New to this board and new to diving. OW certified and only 11 logged dives.
Just came back from Mexico and I took the opportunity to do some diving when there. When I flew back home I felt a strange feeling, that I am wondering about. Did 4 dives in total on 2 separate days (4 days apart) and the last day the dives were 45 minutes at 45 ft and 57 minutes at 47 ft (surface interval 40 minutes and safety stops as required). We flew home 19 hours after I finished the dives (have learned that it shoud be at least 18 hours).
The first flight was short but with jet aircraft and 36000ft. During that flihgt I felt a light pain in my wrist and upper side of the hand. I felt a tingeling feeling (can you say so?...english is not my native language) and it felt like the skin was stretched out and the skin was also rashed (red). Nothing more than that, and no other sympthoms, like fatigue or so.
When we had landed the sympthoms disapered after a while and then we waited 4 hours for our next flight, which was 2,5 hours and finally another 7,5 hours flight home. During these I felt nothing etiher.
Could these sympthoms had anything to do with my diving? Since I am new to this, I have not really get to know my limits, or how my body react. I am always very careful and would not risk anything. I had not been drinking any alcohol except for one beer between the diving and the flight. I'm 47 and in farily good physical condition.
What do you think?

PS. BTW the diving was really good!
