I fear the only hope right now is Ketamine. Unfortunately, I have to go back to work and the only time I can take her is in November. Last year was crazy with missing work.

Hopefully, the flare will calm down, I have contacted her OT/message therapist, she can usually get it in check.

Sandy,

NO WAY ON METHADONE for her.

It's a great useful medication in many cases, but has some risk of FATAL cardiac arrythmia issues.

I'll try to find some good articles for you
