It's all very intersting to read and listen in on each post regarding dr's who treat RSD. Everyone is so amazed about Dr. S and Dr. K, but there is another dr who has had such success with Ketamine and that is Dr. Harbut. Although he does a 10 day infusion; he is no longer doing his research as he has just started in a VA hospital in AK. I only wish I could get in with him as soon as he starts seeing patients outside the VA arena. So at this time I trying my best to see who else might be close enough to his treatment agenda and see what might lie ahead.

I appreciate your thoughts regarding this. Everyday it is a constant suffering dealing with the pain. This monster had riddled me for almost 5 years and the bad part is that I am on wc. My PM won't even discuss alternative medicine with me. A couple of years back I heard of pharmacists prescribing Ketamine cream which had to be compound specifically and I had to beg my PM doc to let me give it a try. I was warned it would burn.....yes, it did burn but I at least had to give it a try. If I was to do anything outside wc then it comes from my pockets; hence ketamine treatments. The coma based treatment is NOT an option for me and I won't even consider it. If I am awake then I feel I have more control over my situation including my spouse who would be a voice above my own.
