Do you mind if I ask how many days you get your ketamine for each time? And how much you receive in each dose? I would love to be able to go 3-4 months between infusions...

A bad stomach bug reversed the effects of one of my infusions over the winter...it was awful, because I am no longer on heavy meds. My doc told me infections will often do that.

Andrea, thanks so much for posting more info on oral ketamine. I plan to ask
my doc if perhaps taking it for a few days after my infusions could help them
last longer.
