Daily migraines: I'm not sure what hbot is. Perhaps hyperbaric oxygen therapy? Regardless, person to ask about safety of some proposed medication/treatment/surgery as it applies to you is person suggesting it for you. In other words, ask whoever is going to provide you w/hbot what they know w/regards to use in asthma. In meantime, check out http://goo.Gl/b4ay9 for options for (non)prescription migraine prevention.

There is no data to : Support the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for autistic spectrum disorder, adhd, or any other neurodevelopmental disorder. Your money is better spent on individual therapy for anxiety/organizational skills & social skills group therapy, as well as medication management, if needed. Contact the vermont office of disabilities for info on ada accommodations for work or apply for ssi.

Be Careful: I know that there is no research data regarding the safety of hbot interacting with your conditions.And I am not aware of whether there is any data that it works. Consult with your doctor.

Daily migraines: For someone with daily migraines, excedrin use can result in something called rebound headaches. You may find it helpful to identify risk factors or triggers and possibly use prevention for your headaches, like magnesium or one of many other options. http://www.neurocuro.com/migraine-headache/
