Hi all
Thanks for your replies. I'll try and answer all your questions. Firstly I have got into contact with DAN and they concur with my Dr that whilst my original symptoms were consistent with DCS, the way that the pain comes and goes is not consistent. I am 27 and physically fit - 186cm tall and 168 pounds, I don't think this is a strain from hauling equipment or getting in and out of the boat. I am also an experienced diver and my ascent rates and buoyancy were well under control. I am heading to the recompression chamber on a nearby island, to have a medical examination by the Dr there, I think that's probably the best way to proceed for now.
Cheers
Joe
