ketamine infusion
I went to Dr again on Tuesday, he says there is nothing left for me and he does not want to up my pain meds again. Then he asked how I felt about trying the ketamine infusion as someone in Durango is doing them now. I was totally thrilled. Ever since they waited to long to try the injections, i have been begging to try the ketamine because it has a chance of working no matter how long they screwed around and left me without treatment. He did say though, not to get my hopes up as the IC would probably refuse it. So, here i am, with hope for the first time in a long time trying not to get to hopeful,lol.
The RSD has actually gotton worse, I was past the swelling and redness to a large extent, and now they are back, and even with PT my range of motion is lessening. I am now back on crutches alot, due to pain of foot on floor. Anyway, cross your fingers, and there was an update on me lol, Sithie The good news is,"You can get used to anything." The bad news is,"You can get used to anything." :-) Sithie |

RE: ketamine infusion
Sithie, I hope this treatment works wonders for you. Keep us posted on your progress in this treatment.
I'm sorry you are having such severe pains again. RSD has a mind of its own and you never know from day to day how it is going be. Makes planning anything in advance very frustrating. Ugh! Take care! Let Go, and Let God...... |
