No: No impact and no change. This would be voodoo or shysterism.

HBOT: I have seen articles about testing hbot with diabetic autonomic neuropathy. Did not see any that specifically addressed alcoholic polyneuropathy. Please be aware that alcoholic polyneuropathy is not one of the conditions for which hbot is recommended by the committee on hyperbaric oxygen therapy of the undersea ; hyperbaric medicine.
