There are very good reasons for not wanting to give Ketemine to someone that suffers from depression.

Ketamine has very powerful effects on your brain. Everyone here has heard or read about how they have to use other drugs to try to control the hallucinations that patients experience with ketamine. As I understand it this drug can cause long term physiological problems for some.

While I totally understand disappointment with being disqualified from the ketamine treatment for depression, in defence of the doctors involved with the clinical trials using ketamine I believe they are making that decision in your best interest. Some people are disqualified for physical reasons too. That doesn't make the doctors self serving.

These doctors are not saying you that should not have depression along side with your RSD. What they are saying is that patients who have the 2 together are not good candidates for the treatment with Ketamine. I think that is being responsible.

Lordwood we haven't heard from you in a long time. I truly hope you have found some alternatives for your treatment and that things are getting better for you.
