While I have not heard the best of things about Hanhemman, the reports on Dr. S were usually glowing.

Dr. Getson is within reach so could be another possibility for boosters. I just don't know what to do but am at my wit's end.

Got in a car accident last night )other car was parked, no injuries but landed me in the ER again for the whole night for observation) and was told my driving seemed impaired. I don't know what's going to happen now but I'm scared to death.

I go in for my 5 day next and am unsure how to proceed after that.

To those of you who have had treatments, are you still heavily on meds and injections?

I currently take a total of almost 40 pills today and find it sickening. I'm really at the end of my rope and my accident last night was the final straw. I'm still waiting to hear if charges will be pressed because I was on my prescribed meds even though the accident was due to a broken tired rod, not my driving.

I'm usually a really positive person and have fought hard through all this so far but right now, were it not for my 3 children I would love to never wake up again.

Dawn,

I'm sorry to hear what you are going through. I hope and pray that everything turns out . I not sure if I should tell you this but I recently talked with one of my pain management doctors about the 5 day ketamine and he stated that the statistics for any type of recovery or remission from the procedure were in his words "not good". That more people find themselves in the same situation as they started. I know this not very good news, and I can't even start to imagine how it would feel to be in your situation. I just know that I was ready to do the same ketamine procedure and now I am questioning that decision. I also know that it wasn't what I wanted to hear, but I'm glad that he told me. I know from personal experience that some doctors are only in it for the money and really don't care who they hurt in the process to get it. Not saying that your doctor is this way, its just that I had a bad experience and now I am very skeptical about them. Krank
