I've been scuba diving for 17 years - mostly in Cozumel. On July 12th - I climbed onto the boat and within 15 minutes I had pain lower right side abdomen for 15 minutes - then pain went away and right leg tingled all the way down, then went numb. I sucked on a small barely functional bottle of oxygen for 10 minutes, ALL SYMPTOMS WENT AWAY. I did not do the second dive. I dove the next day, no problems, and continued diving for 6 more days. On the 7th day THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED, so I treated it the same way. I am home now and completely confused. DAN had me contact a local dive doc, who recommended a neurologist, who I'll see tomorrow. I do have some history of back issues. I am a healthy, fit 48 year old woman. Can anybody understand what happened? Scuba is my favorite thing to do in this life. Believe me - I've ruled out ALL of the obvious (dehydration, depth, bottom time, ascent rate, etc............) Thanks for your time
