Doc, I Want My Brain Back is the compelling true story about a scuba diver who suffered a brain injury and was misdiagnosed by well over thirty medical professionals before receiving successful treatment. After being jailed and committed to the state mental hospital, the diver’s parents intervened and made provisions for him to be transferred to another mental hospital, where he was improperly drugged with pharmaceutical psychotropic medications. Meanwhile, most of his friends and family “wrote him off” as merely another mental case; however, his father researched delayed hyperbaric oxygen treatments, well outside of the prescribed limitations and found supporting evidence for a therapy that Dr. Paul G. Harch had successfully applied to another diver. Unlike any other brain injury rehabilitation book, Doc, I Want My Brain Back chronicles the events of Dan Greathouse’s life that led Dr. Harch to discover the tip of the iceberg for neurorehabilitation. With this successful case in brain injury repair, Hyperbaric oxygen therapy takes its place in medical history. Doc, I Want My Brain Back is the story of a medical breakthrough written from the patient’s perspective.

I am reading THE OXYGEN REVOLUTION and just as soon as Dr. Harch mentioned DOC, I WANT MY BRAIN BACK, I immediately ordered my copy. Amazon Prime delivered it yesterday, and I finished it last night. This autobiographical story flows better than a good novel. From Harch's honest confession of his vision of the future, thru the tragic scuba accident, then the maze of medical mis-management, and the betrayals of our legal system---I could personally relate to all Greathouse's agonies and rejoice greatly for HBOT and God's healing hand! Did you know that all generations from Adam to Noah lived to be around 900 years old? Some theorize that the earth's atmosphere before the Great Flood was higher in pressure with greater oxygen content! Maybe!!! [Lol!!] HBOT works because of our Creator!!!!
Mr. Greathouse inspires my hope for a revolution in mental health care. How about that! The victims of state mental institutions rarely get opportunities to give the insider's view, with the credibility of Greathouse. Mental illness has little respect in our country; psychiatry is the only medical specialty who fails to look at the organ they treat. [quote from Dr. Daniel Amen] I anticipate the day when high resolution SPECT imaging is standard psychiatric care. And I want to see psychiatry move from treating symptoms of mental illness, to going deeper to find the causes. Has anyone tried HBOT for bipolar or schizophrenia? I'm sure they want their brains back, too!

A truly firsthand look inside what living with a brain defect is like. Well written in layman's language. This is not a medical book. This is one man's experience told by him.

This book will save lives, literally. It thoroughly documents one man's journey through psychological and physical hell and back. But all of it could have been prevented with proper diagnosis from the beginning. Read this, save a life.
