I have had series of ketamine treatments. There is no 100% promise that it will work, but it took my pain to a level where I got off 4 medications and turned my stim off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will do ketamine infusions until they stop working on me. I didnt have any weird dreams, pretty much no side effects from it. Except for a few days I felt a bit nauseus, but that is expected and he just gave me some medicine for it. I took my ipod in with me and listened to enya. For me I am 20, and the side effects from being on so many medications and STILL feeling horrible EVERYDAY, i had no reason not to go try ketamine, i mean what can we lose?? only pain
which is what we are trying to get rid of. I still have some rough days of aching but the burning 90% completely gone. I dont know how i lived before I had the ketamine infusions... If you would like to talk more pm me and ill give you my number

I went to Rush University Teaching Hospital in Chicago and after they agreed that I have RSD they offered me a couple treatment options. I decided to go the non-invasive route and try the ketamine infusions and I'm supposed to start on the 12th. I don’t have a lot of time for research and I can’t seem to find any information about the treatment from the patients point of view and I'm really nervous about it..... I just don’t want to get sucked into another treatment that is going to fail but I hear this one has a high success rate? I have researched it and there is not a lot information available. So please share with me anything that you think might be helpful.
