Glad you came out OK, hope you have none/few residual injuries. You never mentioned where was your pain? or what was the symptom from that sort of ascent? And your PO2 at the surface? Could be more information to be gleaned from your misfortune, it could happen to any one of us.
The pain was mostly shoulders and left arm at first, by the time I made it to the chamber there was pain in every joint, felt like sandpaper between my bones...not fun. I also had a terrible headache. The pain in my shoulders and the headache came quickly, I wrote it off at first as muscle pain from lifting tanks and such at first...
PO2 on the surface was .21, during the ascent, right at the end, I bailed out to the BOV after emptying the loop.
