After weeks of incompetency of the infusion suite for Dr. Schwartzman's ketamine program they returned saying i didn't pass my one clearance test. Turns out if your depressed your rejected from the program. how is any RSD patient not depressed? Only those less than 2 years into it can be the ones not depressed at all. I'm irate and not alone my doctors are as well and my past therapists are going to be brought back into this equation. I've been on over 7 antidepressants and gone through therapists all to the conclusion that my RSD needs to be taken out of the equation before my depression can go away. What i find funny is the doctor which conducted the test to which i didn't pass, told me at the end of it that there was no problem and that without question i had passed. I've meet kids in Dr. Sherry's program that had went to schwartzman first and it failed for them, they than went through sherry's program and were cured. Should i really be surprised schwartzman should chicken out in the end. Every pain clinic i go to look at my file and go your to advanced. Its no wonder schwartzman would do the same. I passed all my clearances schwartzman is pulling this ******** cause hes unconfident in his own program i saw it the first time i had an appointment with him. All he did was keep instilling he was working with the FDA on other treatments that he could try. For a specialist that's been quote on quote studying RSD for 30 years i find it hard for schwartzman not to have seen all RSD patients depressed. The good news is i have had another RSD specialist on the back burner ready in case schwartzman pulled something which i am glad i had. Dr. Ronald Harbutt he does a similar ketamine treatment. His program is not up until this fall but at least there is another. I am severely disappointed in Dr. Schwartzman, he definitely was not worth the wait nor would he have been work a weeks wait. From what i've seen and from what i have learned from other patients it seems unless your rsd is in one or a few spots than schwartzman's program will work and even than it fails quite often. Good luck to the rest of you.
