He feels that because of the severity of my case, I would only benefit from an inpatient infusion done in an ICU. Since I did manage to get some relief though, he prescribed a compounded cream for me that has a combination of Ketamine, Gabapentin, Amitriptyline, Lidocaine, and I think there was something else in there as well, but I do not remember. I will find out when it comes to me next week. He is not sure if it will help, but feels that it may help a little. Every little bit helps, so I am willing to try.
That's interesting. I had no clue they could put those medications into cream form.

You live, you learn.
