Hey Majete, Thanks for your post. I know exactly what you're feeling. Scary. I'm going to leave my rEvo in the attic for the moment and going back to Open Circuit. I feel safe on that. Can I ask what unit you're diving and whether back mounted counter lungs or front? And what kind of loop volume and ADV characteristics, i.e. generous or very mean (the rEvo ADV is very mean). I know how you feel. Maybe go back more gently on OC and in safe environments. I feel that stress/task loading really didn't help me that day. I want to get back to doing dives that I enjoy without stress. So for me for the next while shallow, warm, great viz and nice sharks. Not so bad :D Please let me know your thoughts. John
Hello JClynes. It cheers to me to hear that everything came out well after all. It a few months ago passed more or less the same to me in an immersion to 70mts. There was much current and I fought against her. I suffer hypertension. In the middle of escenso I began to have difficulties to breathe arriving the point to pass to bal out, and even so it could not breathe well. I thought about making an escape free but I stayed there. When finally I finished deco I raised the boat with difficulties and began to escupir blood and had much cold, although it was a warm day. Several hours later already it found me well. It thought about leaving and diving, but it is part of my life. Itself diving with RB but with a little fear. It returned to me to happen weeks ago, again fighting against current. I consider to leave rebreather… I really believe that still breathing with difficulty. I ask myself if already you totally reclaimed are. I will continue reading this post. Greetings.
