I couldn't agree more. the fact that you are looking at the worst case scenario is exactly how to approach this diver's symptoms. . A patent Foramen Ovale needs to be ruled out first and foremost. I think a better description of his headache is also needed. Where is the pain located, What does it feel like. what makes it better, what makes it worse? Any family history of headaches, migraines, aneurysms, etc? It would be easy to contribute the headaches to sinus conditions since his symptoms are improved with decongestants. However, PFO is a serious condition that needs to be ruled out. I really enjoy your videos and the content is excellent. Thank you,
