hi Kathy,

My daughter had the infusions with Dr. K. He weened her off of them AFTER the Ketamine infusions. I would think it would be dangerous not being weened off the meds. Hopefully, they will do that for you. What is their protocol?

I am stumped since I have not heard this one until now and have been waiting for treatment for over 3 years now (due to waiting and legal junk). Has anyone else heard about this problem from any of the other docs. I am on opiods now and have been for years and cannot get off them because of severe rsd pain so I was told to get off them before my appt there in August 2010. Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks so much for your help.
