From reading Dr. Deco's answer and a couple of other threads, it sounds like if you got bent, you stand a good chance og getting bent again if you do the same things in the same way. Not because you got bent the first time, but because whatever circumstances caused to you get bent the first time will probably cause you to get bent again if they exist the second time.
It's not much comfort, and sounds a little like lightning strike locations. If something gets hit once, and conditions stay the same, there's a good probability of a second hit. Not because of the first hit, but because of the conditions that caused the first hit.

DiverBuoy:This really was a thorough response from Dr. Deco. But I felt I never got closure ... so after searching around and not finding a thread that really nailed this down I'm going to try rephrasing the question:
Does getting bent once increase susceptiblity even in the absence of all other "Trouble Spots"?
Is there a case where a non-susceptible diver who was bent previously for hitting a "Trouble Spot", later got bent again but no "Trouble Spot" or susceptibility could be identfied?
