You are in my thoughts and thanks again.

The 5 day sleep is not the same as the "coma"..The 5 day is an inpatient sleep..@ Drexel at a moderate does of Ketamine..The coma is 5 days High dose done outside of the US..Germany or Mexico.. Now there is a low dose out patient infusion that ne is awake for..that is 10 days of infusion..4 hrs. for 10 days..I paid out of pocket to see Dr. S inticially also..They explained to me that private ins..has NEVER approved the Ketamine intervention..so I am feeling backed into a corner more than ever now as my RSD ..Dr. S said is whole body and internal..and my ins. won't jump on so .. it is a wash.. but I won't stop appealing it..I absoultely hate the thought of being asleep for the 5days ..it may not become reality anyway so I am not going to fret..and I refuse to put my finances in a downward spin for some pain relief which may last a short time or not at all...Maybe me sounding crazy but kids are going to college soon..
