   Anyone interested, we just returned from two weeks in Bonaire.  Fifth
trip.  We really enjoy the place and people.  The diving was good, but not

Has anybody of you heard of a possibility or real case,
where somebody had a small ( ca. 1/2") bubble near one
lung's center, and had it successfully removed?
Seems like I have such, and it is a contraindication to diving.
