Hi Marleen,
There was a Ketamine study done here in Scottsdale at the Mayo Clinic on Mayo Blvd and 56th Street. Dr.S , Dr. Harbut, Dr. Correll, and 2 or 3 more Drs. were involveed. It wasn't a Coma however. This was several years ago, at least 10 years. One of my friends was their assistant. I believe there was a German Dr. and one from Australia involved. Dr. S and I believe Dr. Harbut went to Page Arizona and worked at a clinic before going to Philly. The Mayo does not do the Ketamine treatment. I called them a couple of months ago and they have one Dr. working on RSD if it is in the Foot and no spread. If anyone needs the information, I can call my friend who worked with the Drs. or I have another friend that works in Administration at that clinic. We have two Mayo clinics here.
That is a lot of $. The thought of a coma is too scary for me. But I know there are different levels of pain. It's not a good position to be in, that's for sure. Hope today you are in a low pain day. Your friend across the pond, loretta
