Hi again Grammadur,
I am currently on 30mg Oral Ketamine. It is the ONLY pain med that helps for me a little and will usually take my pain own from an 8 and a half to a 6 and a half.
Most Doctors dont like prescribing Ketamine that much though as it is used on the streets by drug addicts. It is only usually used as a last resort if all else has failed. My Pain Management Doctor doesn't like me being on Ketamine that much because of my age aas he feels that it could mess up my hormones so I can only take it when I am in a really bad flare (which is getting too often now unfortunately
)!
It is worth looking into the Ketamine though. There are a few people on this forum that are on it so it might be worthwhile speaking to them.
I wish you the best of luck and hope you find something that helps you soon!!
