A friend of ours was telling my husband yesterday about the hit that his wife took recently while diving in WA. Apparently something happened to her weight belt and it came off when they were at 65'. She did an uncontrolled ascent and within 10 minutes had extreme anxiety. Within 15 minutes she had shoulder and knee pain, and 5 minutes later felt numbness in her feet. She was taken by ambulance to Seattle where they put her into a chamber immediately. She spent 8 hours in the chamber and came out feeling more normal. Within a couple of days she had no effects at all.
They are now looking to buy their own gear (they were renting), and intend to keep diving.
