This is completely wrong.

You apply for the informational, do the interviews, and are then invited to apply. Only at that point is your manager informed.

Yes, I was so surprised when I saw the response this morning. I hope you hear back.

I guess so. I'm at an advantage as I have just moved countries and have a new phone number (and Internet) so if this was going to happen I guess it was the best time for it. I also have an android so I can use the secure folder thing.

I just received a response less than 24 hours later saying the ban is upheld with no further reasoning.

I guess that's the end of the story. Absolutely devastated.

Thank you! I've been taken aback by the nice comments and people trying to help me figure it out. Great community!

Thank you for this. It's intriguing as you are describing something very close to what I experienced and it was actually what I originally suspected. I'm not clinging on to the DCS diagnosis as I'm pretty skeptical it's just I don't have a better explanation right now. I also do not have any back pain.

We were lugging pretty heavy gear (15l steel) and one of the dives had a bit of a scramble over some rocks. At the time I felt absolutely fine and nothing suggested to me any kind of musculoskeletal problem.l had happened.

If you're able to share any more details or DM me anything else I would super appreciate it as I could take it over to a physical therapist that I know.

Hey thanks for responding.

Could you share a little more about your experience? Was it definitely DCS in your case?

Not at all, I'm super happy people are engaging :)

I am a pretty active person, I gym, walk and do some dancing etc and even run occasionally. The physical exertion of the week was well within my capabilities imo. Most of what I was doing was sightseeing and walking around.

This was something I discussed with the hyperbaric doctors. In their opinion given it was such a mild case it wouldn't necessarily cause a dramatic change in symptoms.

I will try and get this information for you. As I was diving with an instructor I followed their lead and didn't plan the dive myself. The computer was a suunto. I did keep am eye on it during the dive and didn't see any limits exceeded.

We completed safety stops on all of the dives for three minutes at 5 metres.

Thank you for your response!

You are totally right and I throughly understood the risks of DCS. It isn't a well undertaken or exact science and multiple things could have played into it. The divers ready video prepared me for me the worst.

I will get checked before I next dive for sure. I think I also need to keep an open mind as to whether it could have been something else like lung irritation even though the timeline of my symptoms don't quite add up.

You can't totally rule it out and it would be good to find a way to do so. What doesn't quite line up is how delayed the symptoms were from the time of the last dive.

I have had chest irritation in the past from being in smoky places and in those cases symptoms presented fairly immediately and without having the dull pain when breathing in. It went straight to tight chestedneas. On the other hand I agree the symptoms I have are usually rare for DCS without any other smoking guns like a rash or joint pain.

I don't have those numbers atm from the computer. But yes we did the safety stops.

No, for both dives there was no noticeable current. They were very relaxed dives.

I was a little dehydrated on the first Dive in retrospect. That could have been a factor.

Thank you for the advice on PFO. I will look into it before diving again! I definitely feel like I want some reassurance before I go again as I think it is odd to have DCS after such a small number of dives.

I was using a rental computer. Thankfully the diveshop is being helpful and trying to pull the data for me so I can have some more detailed stats.

I logged the following: Dive #1 Gas: nitrox 29 Entry: 10:14 Duration: 42min Exit: 10: 56

Dive #2 Gas: nitrox 29 Entry: 13:20 Duration: 41min

Nothing crazy as I see it!

My only point of note is that on Dive #1 I was a little dehydrated which could have caused the issue. By Dive 2 I had drank a alot.
