Sophie,

Ketamine infusions have helped relieve allodynia in my hand and also in my foot. I am one of those people that has benefited from ketamine infusions and continue with two day infusions four times a year. You must have blood tests afterwards to check your liver function. For me it is worth it because I have nasty reactions to many medications. It does start to wear off after about two months and the pain gradually increases, so that the relief is welcome by the end of the three months between infusions.

Just remember that everyone is different. It took over a year before I saw the most improvement. I understand that this is not uncommon. Good Luck! I understand how important quick improvement is to you especially because of your job. I hope you find the relief that you need soon.
