Hi,

I see my PM dr tomorrow and am going to approach him about a pump. Has this ever been done before with ketamine that anyone knows? Just after the last severe hit from RSD the DBS is sounding more and more like something that might not be able to happen, so want to go the Neurosurgeon with every option possible.

So, any of you (apart from Hope - who I PROMISE I will PM back) got one? are they any good? how bad is the surgery?

I am tempted to leave all surgery alone, but I know I cannot continue with my life this way and if there is any way to reduce the pain and spasticity then I am, probaly, willing to try it. (I react INCREDIBLY badly to operations, even needles, the EMG made my RSD a million times worse and after one nerve I had to stop, so the thought of an op is pretty scary).

So, any advice?

Thanks
