Its just a point but all the people interviewed in the program worked
daily at elevated pressures and the diver was a sat diver.
The point being that even the most dedicated diver will not
acheive the amount of time under pressure that these people where
subjected to, 12 hours a day 5 days a week.
The bone nercosis was blamed on a higher ambient pressure of the worhing
environment, and the report centered around the hip joint, so heres
a question for the medics out there.
Could a increase partial pressure create a larger pressure, hence a greater
waring effect, upon the smooth cartlige and the synovial fluid from the hip
ball and if so what time scale are we talking about.
Also most of the tunnel workers started working whilst in their late teens
could this be a contributing factor as are the bones and cartlige still
ostiofying at this age and could this raised pressure lead to dammage
of this process.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I,
I take the one less travelled by, and that makes all the difference.
